Oblivion Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 i haven't tried it.. dave says no...... as his stock radiator cooled better than a just crap one. Also the top bit where the cap goes on is only pressed in rather than welded in, creating another weak point.the pwr ones are 740, and i can't justify 740 on a radiator, especially when I've got so much other shit to fix asap. so.. I'm thinking ... just jap, get the top bit welded and away i go.. that'll be $430... as you know what? I'm not running a 400kw gtr like dave.. and I'm sure the gtr radiators have much much better cooling qualities than the s13 ones lol. Import Auto Parts does full alloy ones for 399 i think atm.

Liz Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 i guess the key is, mine didn't just overheat, it freaking exploded with the loudest bang i've ever heard.... so I'd be a dumbass to compromise on quality.
