Radiator for an LC?

Post by Interceptor »

Ive been loking for a replacement radiator, alu would be nice.

I havent been able to find anything for that car, so what kinda radiators do you put in?

Nearest I found was the Datzun 240 Radiator, slightly longer but seems like it could be made to fit.

Not looking for anything special, just a new 1.
What other choices are out there?

i had the stock one go on me a few months back. couldnt find any other rad to fit, most modern cars are too long and tall. i bought a half size style mirage 3 row alloy rad but then decided to go different route with engine and need a full size.
Long story short, i coudlnt find anything within a reasonable price to fit, and i have a spare 3 row alloy rad to fit if you want it (brisbane)

Maybe you could have yours overhauled, and if needed have it re-cored? You could have more waterchannels like that, enlarging the cooling surface like that...

Did that with mine.

Sigma or Torana will fit easily as an upgrade. I use a Torana one in mine.

Can you post some examples of that? Seems the Torana one is 700mm wide, which is a bit much(they seem to also only being sold in AU which again kills it on shipping(almost 3 times to price)
Cant even find a sigma rad. :P
