Stock Radiator Finally Blew.. Which Ebay Ones Are Recommended? Lol


Recommended Posts

as the title says, yes i blew my radiator tonight.

Just having a look at ebay for a aluminum one... there are so many and all at different prices.. all look dodgy to me. lol.

anyone bought one off ebay, and can recommend a radiator brand/seller?

for an r32 gtst.

thanks.

I was recommended ASI as well, but they didn't have mine in stock when I needed it (kinda urgent).

I ended up grabbing a random eBay job for $180 that I could pick up an pay cash for.

Had it for several months now and has been fine.

I did discover I had to change my thermostat too, but that was a separate issue (I'd now recommend doing radiator, hoses and thermostat all in one hit - works out much easier.)

I have a 52mm ASI in my r32 gtst. It did not fit with the factory fan. (had to fit thermo fans in)

Go for the stock size ASI radiator or find a 52mm rad which will fit (if you want larger than stock)

for ease of fitment it would be easier to go for a stock replacement style radiator, at least you will be able to refit your stock engine fan and shroud, doable for under $300 depending on brand

This might be alright: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Dual-core-aluminum-radiator-shroud-fan-skyline-R32-/290719928455

I had the same issue, but ended up getting new tanks put on the old radiator as the rest of it was in good condition and I didn't want to change the fan. Was relatively expensive at around the $140 mark.

I have my doubts that will fit. I got the 52mm ASI on my r32, had to buy the thinnest fans on the market for it to fit. Stock size and retain the clutch fan.
