So I cheaped out and bought a crappy chinese radiator, went to the effort of resizing the thread for the bottom temp sensor then realised that it was just going to be too much of a mission to fit this thing.

The shop I bought it from sells these as a R33 GTST radiator, but the only thing that was right with it was that the inlet and outlet were both on the right side.

The top mounts were way off, temp sensor the wrong thread and the wrong size, overall radiator size slightly smaller so the shroud didnt fit.....

Anyway I have decided to sell it and get a decent one.... So far ive got the Blitz from just jap or a PWR or a Koyo.... the blitz is about $100 cheaper than the other two....

What should I go for, or is there anything else worth while?

ohh and anyone wants a cheap aluminium radiator.....$100

I saw that one for $400 on ebay, but its got 4 days left and I need something ASAP.

I dont want go too crazy with it but I want to get something decent.... I was thinking around $600-700

It has to be available locally as well..

Call Racepace then, they have an item tri-pass item for a very affordable price. Half the price of a PWR item which is basically the same thing :thumbsup:

That ASI one looks alright, is it a triple core or just one big core?

Has anyone got any pics of the Racepace item?

The ASI I had in my 32 was triple core, not sure about that 33 one though.

stock works a treat

Yeah I don't have an issue with mine so can't see the point in upgrading from the stock r33 rad.

Koyo is one of the best vaule for money imo at about 500 and I have put it through its passes with 25min continuous drifting mainly 3rd close to limiter on a 39 degree day and temps didnt go past 95.

cant remember ,its either triple or twin...but its def not single....Im pretty sure Richo uses one in his racecar..

I was having overheating problems but havent had any since...its a good unit

some muppet had put a gts radiator in mine, i initially wanted to put a new core on the stock tanks but it worked out cheaper to get an ASI ...the welds dont look the prettiest but it does the job..

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
