Saw that one a few months ago. It has a nice thermostat on it to keep the overcooling issue to a minimum

Oh wait. I took it. As far as the holes in back go 9k,,, I guess they (GT Spec) wanted you to be able to drain the radiator on USDM and JDM models. :wavey: :suspect: :rollingla Yeah initially it only came with one hole to accommodate the JDM cars, then instead of coming up with two designs the just added a second hole. I don't get the louvers either but hey it's a lot better than the plastic crap. Mine is very light and very strong, I am pretty proud of it, the guy who made did a great job. I do need to add ductwork and a thermostat to my secondary radiator though. |
Thats a really nice set up. Thermostat with a by pass even. Reasonable price also, considering everything.
Is the fan on a thermostatic switch? I believe so? Probably has an overide also? Maybe it is tapped into the factory fan? |
Interesting part, have anyone bought this or used it?? I would like to know someone's experience with this part.

hey man, do you mind sharing with me the radiator look? i am looking for the second radiator...where do you get the stuff from?
steven Check my build thread for pics, I just used a Long brand (good OEM manufacturer) ATV radiator that I bought on Ebay new. I do recommend getting the one without a radiator cap though, mine came with it's own cap and it is fine but one without a cap is preferred, that way if it over pressurizes it only comes out one place :) This is the one I have: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Small-Engine...item3f0e84e5d6 This is the one I recommend, but not unless you are forced induction and live in a hot environment. You would probably have over cooling issues otherwise. You could always put in a bypass though for when it is not needed. http://www.ebay.com/itm/High-Perform...item3f034e927f |
You could also buy something like this.....
