Where is the flasher relay?
I've replaced my signal bulbs with LEDs and would to replace the oem flasher relay with an aftermarket one to control the blinking rate.
Can someone tell me where the stock flasher relay is located. Thanks! Tried searching but found nothing.

Yep - you need this: LED Light Load Equalizer
You install one in-line with each of your LED bulbs. Kind of adds a lot of expense to doing LED lights, but with the Z there is no way getting around it!

I havent looked for the flash circuit yet, there was a guy on ebay selling a flasher relay for an 04 350z, it was brown on the outside but perhaps he had his cars mixed up.
Sidenote to your link, Ive done led installs on a lot of cars and you can use smaller load resistors just so they dont take up so much power/produce excessive heat.
Generally people use 50W - 6 ohm per vehicle side (replaces 2 stock bulbs) but since most cars use separate lines you end up installing 4x 50w load resistors which is 200W of wasted power.
I usually install 25W -10ohm or 25W-6ohm load resistors and they do the job/
Just a heads up for people working on the same project.

Load Resistor
Wouldn't the load across a 6 ohm resistor be 24 watts at 12 volts?A 50 watt rating would give better heat dissipation at this voltage compared to a 25 watt rated resistor?
