Just got a 3 core aluminium for a silvia (s15) from just jap for 300 bucks only difirence is the bottom hose doesn't do a 90 bend upwards, easily remedied with a 90 radiator bend and a pipe to join it to the existing hose :) (and 2 spare clamps of course) :)
How fast do those doorhandles go mate!

That mean that the top hose positions the same?
Are the mounting points the same as stock starion or are new brackets required?
Length same or shorter?
Powerplant: Chipped stock ECU, 2044cc, 8.5:1, head intake enlarged and polished, exhaust manifold enlarged,
Balance-shafts eliminated, Intercooled, TC06 @ 10psi, 2.5" high flow exhaust system and dump pipe.
