R33 Radiator

[riceline]

Hey all.

I have rescently picked up a rb30 radaitor for my rb30 conversion so that left me with a spare r33 radiator. In comparasion the rb30 one is HUGE! apx twice the thickness I would guess. My r33 one was given to my mate with a s13. Just was wanting to know if anybody has ever fited one of these to a s13? He says it is to big but there must be a way that sombody knows of .

Thanks guys

Wow - so the RB30 radiator is a fair wack bigger than the RB25det one ??

Are they a direct swap? hose in/out in the same location, and all the mounting points the same ??

be nice if it was a straight swap?

does it have a alloy core or is it copper?

have not played with the rb30 one yet... everything apears to be in the same spot accept for a sensor of some sort... going to sus it out tomoro i think... want to get the motor in the car first

I will take a pic of them both see how i can go with that.

does anybody know about puting the r33 one into the s13?

I think he'll have problems getting the R33 radiator in due to the height of it. The R32 GTR radiator fits OK because its shorter.

The sensor is for your Climate control. This can be retained by making an adapter to fit it where the drain plug goes. Apart from that it all lines up easily.

BTW - RB30 rad is 2 core while import GTS rads are single core.
