Agreed, replace the thermostat first (It takes less then an hour to do). I recommend spending the extra dough and getting a fail-safe type. If it still runs warm, it may be the radiator. These Nissan radiators get dinged up, they do not cool as efficiently. Fortunately, the radiator is really easy to replace after removing the fan-shroud.
