Part #: 640901. Fluidampr Engine Dampers are a must - have for your Nissan 350Z from 2003 to 2009. They're designed to stop destructive vibrations that travel through the crankshaft. Every time the air/fuel mixture in a cylinder ignites, it creates a torque spike that twists the crankshaft. This twisting, known as torsional vibration, can seriously damage bearings and the crankshaft when it hits the natural frequency. Stock rubber and elastomer - type dampers only work at one critical frequency and are tuned for factory engines. If you change engine parts, they won't work well and could lead to early failure of expensive components. Also, rubber dampers create heat, which makes them crack and fail. Fluidampr dampers solve these problems and protect your engine.
Using the Fluidampr damper is straightforward. Just install it on your Nissan 350Z's crankshaft according to the standard installation procedures. Make sure to double - check all connections are secure. As for maintenance, keep an eye on the damper regularly. Look for any signs of wear, like cracks or unusual vibrations. If you notice any issues, it's best to have it inspected by a professional. Avoid extreme conditions as much as possible, as they can accelerate wear. Also, if you make any changes to your engine's pistons, rods, or crankshaft, it's a good idea to consult an expert to ensure the damper is still suitable for your engine setup.
