alloy radiators
 

hi thinking about getting a new rad four my silvia has any one got info about good ones to use thinking about a aluminium one. trouble is both hoses are on same side . may be ones that have been use on s12 . cheers ;)

mk3 golf rads are alloy and have the in and outlet on the same side

Mishimoto has rads you have to get it for the ka24de that came in the 240 here in the states that's what I'm going to be running. there not that expensive under $200 usd not sure what the shipping would cost to get it to you tho... I got mine off egay lol

got two old rads in my garage maybe get one recond . look into the one's on ebay cheers for the info ;)

no problem!

s14 ally rads are good because they are not quite as wide and you can feed i/c pipes straight past it, i use a 52mm s14 ally rad, the pipes are on opposite sides but its an easy fix with some silicone bends.

nice one four the info how much does the s14 rads go four and going four a two elec fan set up. maybe big day tommow putting engine and box in . one big step for my silvia and me . cheers ;)

about ?120 for one from race spec in sheffield, they have fans to suit as well.

takeing my two rads in this week to see how much and if make good of one will look into s14 nice one . bad news did not get my engine and box in this weekend . working on my mate focus glad I own a silvia s12 now cheers ;)

My radiator key does not fit!!!?
 

I have bought a new key and it only fits and turns in 1 radiator and not the others. My radiator clearly needs bleeding as the bottom half is hot only.
I am not sure how to fix this. Any suggestions?

sounds like it needs recoring that wot I got done to mine the bad news it cost 150 comes with a 2 year wart :( cheers

i would'nt wast my time having it recored when you can get an s14 52mm alloy rad for around ?120 and its good for running intercooler pipes straight down the sides to the front.
