Hey I don't think this question has been posed before, but just how good are our stock Calsonic Radiators in terms of they're performance after modding the car?

Calsonic is revered in Japan for it's parts and sponsors the legendary Calsonic Skyline....so forgive me for jumping to conclusions, but is our stock Radiator anything worth being happy over or is it just another big name on our car that really means nothing *cough* like the OZ RALLY badging, 15" rims and cheap *** sway bar to make it "a rally car"?

Honestly....when push comes to shove is this radiator going to do the job, or is there another radiator out there thats better. Am I confusing the Calsonic performance name, with our economy rad, or am I right in saying its better than your avg rad?

 

good q id like 2 know also and is there any other ones out ie lightweight ?

 

It's pretty good for stock radiator...but don't let performance name fool ya. It's like the MOMO and RECARO interior....nice yes,but both those companies make better quality stuff. Same goes with the radiator. Nice for stock but little below par compared to other performance oriented radiators. I changed my along with thermo ...mostly due the very hot, very humid climate I live in.

 

What did you go to? Ishi....what would you recommend for a US Lancer?

p.s. Thank your country for the Evo 6 TME....when I run out of **** mags I always have a viable back-up plan

 

I got Fwin but I can't find the website link. Very nice twin radiator but very costly. The radiator flow in a sort "Z" pattern. all alumnium..very light wieght. Since you are Canada, I would recommend some popular American makes. The quality should be just as good but the pricing should be very affordable... Let me look around and I will PM ya with some links and pricing. Cool?
