hey guys, not for a skyline, its for an 88 prelude. plastic end tank has sperated from core (i think, hard to see while its still in the car) and was wondering if there is any sort of adhesive or such that i can use to seal it up/join it back together. wanna spend as little as possible as its a cheap shit car. at the point sikaflex is topping the list but i dont like my chances hahhaha, i need something realistic

what do they use from the factory?

what would a radiator joint do if i took it to em? fix or replace?

what are my options bar replacing the damn thing?

cheers,

Ben

PS - i was gonna ring a radiator joint but got home too late and doubt they'll be open tmr, even so i'll be working passed their closing time.

try some loctite 587 or something, also known as ultra blue. then again a tube of that would probably cost as much as a radiator from the wreckers. Call around and see what they have. Maybe do some searches on the net to find what other car has the same radiator. Or even easier.. goto a radiator shop with radiator and just say i dno what this is out of its off my home made buggy but i need a replacement the exact size, then he will look in his book and tell u oh a vl commodore is the same.. etc.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
