long story short my radiator and fans are thrashed ....


so i found a half size radiator and fan combo for about 90 dollars

my question is has any one done this on their tc yet? if so how the cooling like?

 

I have.
If you mount it on the passenger side the lower stock radiator hose fits and for the upper you will need to make something custom

 

How much effect does the smaller radiator have on engine cooling?

 

Doesnt overheat. Mine is a dual core so the capacity is almost equal to the stock scion radiator

 

yea the one im looking into is dual core also.... all this because when i pulled my motor i didnt remove the front motor mount from the block so it punched the radiator

 

slow 2az what are you mods?

 

enough =] im completely stock and have a 75 shot coming in =P

 

Why run half radiator because of a 75 shot..

Maybe you should check trd's build to see why you need this mod! ____ING RICER ____

 

lol half size because its cheaper than full size.

 

cheap fast reliable

pick two

 

cheap n reliable..

 

Never seen cheap and reliable in the same sentence. Good Luck with that.

 

haha i thought u had some huge turbo taking up space anyways take plenty of pics i want to see how it looks

can you post link to rad??

 

ive seen it plenty of times...and ive also done cheap fast and reliable before...question is how long can it be reliable , and each person definition of reliable


will do

cool looks really good keep us posted about how it turns out

 

Dont go half radiator unless you need to. The upper hose will be a pain no matter what.

 

kinda have to i have 200 dollars left ...i had to buy new motor..

i needed a radiator and fans and well oem radiator is like 80 cheapest then the fans are like 150 idk i just dont have enough bread. lol

since ill be n.a i can run a direct 90 off the top of radiator and run the hose between the header and where the old radiator would be and then another 90 down to the motor...

 

buy an oem rad and put a slim fan on it call it a day.

The upper hose will be a pain believe me.

 

oem radiator form trd sparks is like 300 and from other places oem replica is like 100+ i already ordered the half size its alright i know itll be a pita but i was literally sitting in my engine bay today measuring things
