I'm looking for suggestions on an Alluminum Radiator for my VQ35 swap. It'll be going in my 1995 Maxima SE. I need a radiator for an Automatic Transmission. Every Alluminum radiator I've seen will only work with a Manual Transmission. I'd like to know before I have to buy a seperate Tranny cooler. I'd also like a new fan assemply. I'm thinking of getting OBX Silicone Hoses while I'm at it.

Mishimoto is just too expensive unless I can find one used.

Any suggestions appreciated! Thanks

 

if you want the best, you have to pay for the best^

 

in the car world, you really get what you pay for. just be careful where you buy from.

 

How expensive is too expensive? You can find Mishimoto slim fans and silicone hose sets on Ebay for cheap and you can bargain with a lot of the vendors on here for the radiator/cooler itself. I probably got the rad, cooler, silicone hoses and new coolant installed all for about $300. The mishimoto radiator comes with a lifetime REPLACEMENT warranty no questions asked even in the case of an accident that is your fault. That was the selling point for me because in case of an accident that will save me hundreds. Its not a good idea to cheap out on a rad but the Koyorad is usually cheaper than the Mishimoto and its about the same radiator anyways.

 

Link me please!

thx

 

Yes if you have to replace a radiator might as well go aluminum. I never saw a knock-off Mish but the lifetime replacement warranty is worth it to me. IIf you drive in a city like I do people drive like crazy
