GoHard Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Got mine from isc in the traders section.

boostn0199 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 People have said the ASI ebay radiators have worked really well. If you can afford 500 i would recomend a koyo.

mark33gtst Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 ASI has been good for me. I have a 50mm one. Just fits Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/403416-stock-radiator-finally-blew-which-ebay-ones-are-recommended-lol/#findComment-6417151 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JadGTST33 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 I was recommended ASI as well, but they didn't have mine in stock when I needed it (kinda urgent). I ended up grabbing a random eBay job for $180 that I could pick up an pay cash for. Had it for several months now and has been fine. I did discover I had to change my thermostat too, but that was a separate issue (I'd now recommend doing radiator, hoses and thermostat all in one hit - works out much easier.)

Rekin Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 I have a 52mm ASI in my r32 gtst. It did not fit with the factory fan. (had to fit thermo fans in) Go for the stock size ASI radiator or find a 52mm rad which will fit (if you want larger than stock) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/403416-stock-radiator-finally-blew-which-ebay-ones-are-recommended-lol/#findComment-6417674 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 I am selling a replacement radiator by Koyo cheap if you are interested Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/403416-stock-radiator-finally-blew-which-ebay-ones-are-recommended-lol/#findComment-6418278 Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenCJR31 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 for ease of fitment it would be easier to go for a stock replacement style radiator, at least you will be able to refit your stock engine fan and shroud, doable for under $300 depending on brand Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/403416-stock-radiator-finally-blew-which-ebay-ones-are-recommended-lol/#findComment-6418713 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuuBox Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 This might be alright: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Dual-core-aluminum-radiator-shroud-fan-skyline-R32-/290719928455 I had the same issue, but ended up getting new tanks put on the old radiator as the rest of it was in good condition and I didn't want to change the fan. Was relatively expensive at around the $140 mark.

Was relatively expensive at around the $140 mark. I have my doubts that will fit. I got the 52mm ASI on my r32, had to buy the thinnest fans on the market for it to fit. Stock size and retain the clutch fan.
