R34 Gtr Which Koyo Radiator?

[sr20dettttt]

Hi,

My radiator is damaged, it's a 99 r34 gtr vspec. I'm looking to purchase a KOYO radiator. Which one should I buy? And why? They are around the same price.

this one

or this one?

PWR better, these days Koyo radiators are made in Indonesia and they're not of the same calibre as a decade ago.

To be honest, I read good things and bad things about nearly ALL radiators (including KOYO and PWR), whether it be leaking out of the box, or installation fitment issues.

for the money I'd be rethinking!!! You can get 2.5 of these ones for the price of a Koyo.

+1 for the cooling pro.

Only if a street car with mild track work.. if you're starting to do 10 laps flat out then you'll find those cheaper alternatives don't hold up well.

I don't mind spending a bit of coin on a quality product... I have seen many GTRs with cheap ebay china stuff... don't like it.

Haven't checked the cooling pro one. But not the correct radiator:

Nissan Skyline R33 GTS/GTS-T (RB25de/RB25det)
- Nissan Skyline R33 GTR (RB26dett)
- Nissan Skyline R34 GT/GT-T (RB25de/RB25det Neo)
- Nissan Stagea WGNC34 (RB25DE/RB25det)
- Nissan Stagea 260RS Autech Version (RB26dett)

Back to the question: What's the difference between the two? Is it just old/new generation radiators? If so, which is newer?

Without seeing the actual photo of the product it'll be hard to tell.

I sell two types for the 34GTR.

Comes down to personal preference really. I served a bloke earlier and he only wanted the Blitz radiator if it had "Blitz" sprayed on the front...

Yeah was more of a heads up............you can find yours by looking harder or asking.

Not my experience, I run a cooling pro in the race car and have done up to an hour's race without running hot.

I have a Koyo rad in my R34 GTR from Just Jap for 6 years now - no problems at all stays cool iz bro

Ring Racepace Motorsport in Melbourne and ask for one of theirs.

Targa/track proven, bolt in and decently priced... Just works.

well I am making the assumption Cooling Pro is of the same quality as ASI.. I went from ASI/Worley to PWR and water temperatures were rock solid... although the Dim Sim spec radiator did it's job during cooler track days
