Default Central 20 Radiator - Installed

just added this mod



details here - in japanese
http://www.central20.co.jp/goods/z33-eg.etc.html

so far so good, in humid stop and go traffic water temps stayed in the mid to upper 80s (cel).. usually temps on the stock unit in stop and go traffic hit the high 90s(cel)..

one difference between this unit and others is the location of the end tanks and the water flow..

translates to about $900..

probably heavier than stock, the stock unit has plastic enc tanks is rather light.. this holds more radiator fluid so will be heavier.. but its only a couple of pounds, nothing major.. the cooling benefits of having double cores so far are great..

Thanks for the info!

Anyone out there find the need to upgrade there coils? Just wondering how beneficial it would be... guess if they ever fail it would'nt hurt to replace them with these
