Which Radiator M35?

[andynogo]

The top tank on my 01 M35 2.5T went today so I will start the hunt for a new rad here in Perth today (yeah, wish me luck!).

I know that the Koyo v35 skyline ones fit but apparently they come in two versions- pin mount for the fan shroud or rectangular hole mount. Any idea which one we have?

Thanks Josh- that's what I did last night. The first one that comes up says :

"PIN BOTTOM FAN MOUNTS PLEASE CHECK FOR RECTANGLE MOUNTS PLEASE CHECK ITEM NUMBER:191157820160"

which is why I thought I'd ask...

Well fancy that. Local Natrad had one- $285 and it's mine. Looks like I'll be having a fun start to 2015 tomorrow!

Hi there,

I have held on eBay with KOYO this morning and went to the seller's store of Golpher. Unfortunately it is close today. Will try to get Golpher one next Monday.

Hey guys, Iv just purchased low temp thermo and new hoses for my nm35.. Alloy radiator is next on the list but there seems to be a few out there, Iv done a bit of digging but can't pin point what exactly is the best option, some require trimming the shroud etc, eBay has a couple of cheaper ones, a Sydney based one and one seems to be a Chinese one called winner racing ( doesn't sound like a winner to me)

Just want to hear best options/best price and feedback before I go and throw a few bucks at one.

Mishimoto is the pick tbh; koyo do an aluminium high performance version; but at $550 its significantly more expensive.

The Mishimoto will have to come the US, but is excellent quality.

Which thermostat? I have tried a few and only the Nismo is any good. Mishimoto thermostat had the car in it's cold start map constantly and failed quickly not long after.

I have been buying the Fenix rads, the alloy and the plastic tank version. Other than lacking stock they are good quality and local in Sydney.

Only the nismo for me, I looked on here before buying one luckily.

So mishimoto do drop in ? I'm not to worried about cutting the shroud down but it makes life easier, considering the amount of effort it takes to bleed it right.

Thanks

The Mishimoto just fit, they push the airbox back a fair amount and you will need to trim a bit of the fiberglass. The shroud will need some modification too.

Allgood, have you guys got a link to who would sell them direct to nz? Iv tried the supplier here with no response?

Try Alex at Moonlight Racing, www.mlracing.co.nz, he lists some Mishimoto radiators on his site already but I didn't spot a Stagea one, which isn't really surprising since no one seems to care about them. He's in Japan at the moment, I think he has a container coming back soon but I haven't heard a peep from him for a couple of weeks, probably because he found a pantie-dispensing vending machine or something.

Tell him Matty from CJC sent you.

The moshimoto is not a stagea dedicated model. It is actually g35 model, hence it needing some trimming to the shroud etc.

My top tank split this week. Lots of coolant everywhere!!!! Filled 3 times and local mechanic advised not to drive it. Given the hot weather it's probably worth while. So Mishi is the pick given the comments in this thread? Looked at the e-bay option but feel it's too cheap and nasty :-(
