I bought an SR20 2core of Ebay for the race car , all alloy and pretty good $165.

You can get the tanks replaced at most good radiator repairers for probably around $80-100

Top is just plastic. It can easily be replaced and the core cleaned out. Go to a radiator repair shop in the first instance and get some prices for a thicker radiator or if you want to pay more go to the usual speed equipment sources ( see the dealers in the skyline section) or buy from Japan through nengun or Import Monster etc.

I got a R33 GTR 52mm ISC rad for mine, fitted perfect and seems good quality, had to get the bottom fitting for the water temp sensor re-threaded other then that happy.

I couldnt see the RWD and AWD rads being different, just the auto's have the tans cooler in the core to, so if you go aftermarket budget for a trans cooler.

going to get a a second stock one from chook so i will have 2 coolers should work fine as i have already move the one i have to the right hand front so it gets full air intake now

i will just make up new lines to go to the other one and have it on the left hand side

i broke the top pipe on the patrol it was a plastic tank also.i couldnt get it replaced and had to buy new radiator.i wont tell u what nissan charged me grrrrrrrr.was pissed off too cos some flamin mongrel had just reconditioned it ie new core.and he did clamp up on the ridge in the pipe therefore cracked it .proving it was impossible as i had to refit it to get home after it blew off.
