One member suggested checking the spark plugs. I don't think I have changed them since 2003 and the car now have 64000km on them. Haven't tested them but I was thinking it wouldn't hurt to change them.

Really want to try Pulstar but heard that it doesn't last long and a lot have been using NGK iridium plugs.

Thank you
Have you ever cleaned the MAF?

Sounds like a 7 wire kit might fix at least 2 of the 3 issues if you don't have them now.
I have a 10 wire grounding gear coming in this week so I will give that a try, but not sure why the car is so hot all the time and don't know if there is a direct effect on the conditions I am getting.

Got to check that too, not really sure if Nissan did it or not because that's where I get it serviced. But I will definitely look in to that.

Thank you
