Just wondering what would be a good replacement radiator without to much hassle. I currently have the stock radiator (i think) with a G200. I often rip it up, and rarely she gets pretty warm. And prices$$??

Thanks for ya help

the 3 core radiators from Torana's are a good fit, and will definitly do the job.

I cant help you on a price though...

cheers,

are the 3 cores from a torrie a straight bolt in?????
the best option i have seen is a full length RA 40 celica radiator which requires NO mods to fit.....straight bolt in with the hoses on the right sides!!!!
Some of the coronas have the same radiator but b careful of which model

P.s. the costs are 2nd hand from a wrecker....from $80
.....recore.....$220..in the ball park with that one!

hope that helps...

Yeah, definately go with the Celica RA40 as that is what I have in my car and it works really well. Especially with two thermo fans from a Telstar.

Toranas bolt straight in but have the hose connection on the wrong sides. You'd need to have them swapped. Very good though.
