Im thinking I will try Fujita Engineering's rad next. But that **** is bloody expensive.

Its like 1500+ bux for a 3 layer Radiator with side Tank.

I'll wait until Yen drops a bit/US dollar rise first ....

Why would I want that? BECAUSE NO ONE HAS IT HERE !

what temp are you talking ? under what condition ?

 

Mine are running around 205 all the time. The fans come on full blast at 185. I've seen 212 at 75mph on the interstate just cruising.

 

Lots of fabrication and v-mount

What are your temps - oil and water - at WOT?

 

ambiant temps? water / coolant mixture?

 

Yeah, that might end up happening.

Haven't been able to do much WOT driving. And don't have the oil temp gauge installed yet.

85-90 degree ambiants. 70%water/30% coolant w/ 1 bottle watter wetter.

 

my car is running too cool. would you believe 130-140 F after a 10 min warm up period and a stop and go trip of 6 miles? Ambient temps are cold at 38F, but even when ambient warms to 65 F the engine is at 140-150 F under the same conditions.
That is too cool and I am csi'ing my set up to try and get her to stay between 160-190F.

Your at 38 degrees already??? My god how cold does it get there? No wonder you can't get above 150.

 

in NYC, outside temp has been around 38-55 these few days.

at night time, around 42 outside. water temp goes between 87-101 Celsius. oil temp from 70-93.

My car is ok I guess.

 

freaky southern weather--supposed to be warming up a little 30's at night 60's during the day.

Holy post resurrection . . . thanks! I never would have found any of this without your post after nearly 3 years!

 

Well, this thread is linked in a sticky so I figure it should be as accurate as possible.

 

 

Any updates on where to buy an OEM radiator? OP's vendor has gone out of business.

Failing that, what is my best option? My '04 radiator is leaking.
