Alright, I searched and didn't come up with some stuff. I am looking to tackle this myself and replace my core support. The bottom of the core is fractured and was repaired before but it's fractured again, and also the left tab for the radiator is broken off, so I just want to replace it all together.

Before I begin, I am looking for a how-to on the removal but can't find anything on the forums or service manual. Maybe I am looking in the wrong place so I was wondering if anyone can have any clues how to get this thing off? Is it hard like removing the core support from a 240sx where I have to cut stuff and weld it up again or is it all held up with bolts?

 

it's held up with bolts only no cutting or welding

 

Thanks for the reply! I will try to take a look at it this weekend.

 

It is really easy, only a few bolts to remove. Pretty obvious once you really look at it. If you have any questions, give us a call.

 

grab yourself a factory service manual, will make things easier for you

 

I did, and I looked in the index for anything that started with radiator or core support but nothing came up. Either I am looking it under the wrong name or it's just not in there. If you know where it is, please do tell.

Thanks! I will if I hit any problems.

 

section BL (body, lock, security) page 16

it is pretty simple though...I swapped cores on my car last year

good time to do a headlight mod

 

Don't forget to take off the small clips and pieces from the old core support and remount them on the new one. There's more than you think and it's a PITA if you forget and have to put any on later.

 

Thanks, I will keep that in mind.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! lol, even it says Radiator Core Support big up top.

 

It's under "Body Lock & Security" section!
