STD 2 core is ok for high boost, moderate duration on boost, other wise NISSAN SILVIA. :beer

I reckon we should "BOMBARD" PWR or similar with e-mails and get some nice alloy ones made!

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) :)

just be careful of chinese cores. the ones northcoast radiators use are japanese (NPN i believe)

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?
