Sorry all just been very busy had not time to come back on here to look at repsonses....

Thanks everyone for the advice and for the knowledge of engine swapping... I am just going to keep my car and run it to the ground and save money and to buy my old car that I used to drive and was a frigin idiot for trading it in... (BMW Z3 Roadster... that **** has better handling and is alotttt more pickup than the 350Z... just saying lol)..... and the only reason why I do not like this car is becuase the AT rotary engines have the most problems... not knocking down the MT rotary engines but the AT rotary engines suck *** as most of us should know just from being on this site.

@ nycgps... you have nooooooo idea what i went through with my car and even when they put in a new engine in it under warranty, the **** was giving me check engine light within 2 months.

i hear ya lady, i be pissed if i were u

well, its pretty easy to solve ur problem, just add another oil cooler and it will solve most of ur engine problems ... mazda was smoking **** when they decided that "oh, at engines just need one oil cooler!"

yesterday was about 103 degrees in nyc, i was stuck in traffic going up a bridge, my oil temp went up to 105 celsius and water temp was 101. so if i have just 1 oil cooler and if i use **** like 5w20, i dont think my enginr will last cuz those 5w20 gonna be thinner than water.
