Does anyone know what size the washer is that is required to space out the temp sensor on the R33's when installing the radiator?

Thanks

received my R33 radiator last Thursday three weeks after i deposited payment which was a bit annoying but relieved i got it!

didn't have a problem getting the old one out and the new one in!

Did need a washer for the spacing of the temp sensor, I managed to get a 16mm reasonably thick washer, approximately the size of a 50cent coin.

Don't be mistaken, the drain plug doesn't leak, you just need to turn the valve the other way as mine was set on 'open' when i received it!

Works a treat, car hasn't seen above 85 degrees with the air-con on full when before it was seeing 99degrees on 30degree days with the heater on full!

Thanks Pete!

The R34 and R33 radiators are the same.

I have not fitted mine yet but the only issue will be the radiator pipes on

whether i have to use R33 radiator pipes or R34 ones as they are slightly different.

I am putting in my radiator in shortly and will let you all know what is needed.

hey all,

yeh these radiators are awesome, ive got one in my car after my old single core radiator got blocked up, higly recommened, they look hot and are twin core, my temp. gauge in the r33 hardly goes up, and thats with the air con on, but i got mine for even cheaper, $249 at autobarn. :)

Actually, these are the same price at $250 + $30 postage. Im sure Autobarn would charge that for postage if they went to the trouble; which they dont in my experience.

yeh i jst paid $249 including postage, i asked him to give me the best deal and thats what he gave me, i was happy as.. :)

I would like the answer to that question as well... ive got a nismo 1.3 radiator cap... can i still use this cap ?

However i personally dont see any problemw with it. My stock radiator runs better with it on :thanks:

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
