Title: Radiator
Post by: lukeydoo on May 27, 2020, 08:25
Can I get a recommendation for a radiator for a K-swapped MR2 - is there any point in shelling out for a full aluminium one like Mishimoto? Will standard replacement suffice? If so, are the £35 one a dodgy buy?

I won't skimp if I shouldn't, but I'm spending money like water at the moment!

Cannot speak for the k swap.  But plenty running to £30 rads without issues in normal guise.

I've been running an OEM sized Koyo radiator in my 2ZZ for years and countless trackdays. A friend also has one in his K20 MR2. You'll be fine with a Koyo.
