KOYORAD Engine radiator

Rating 5.0

I run the Koyorad 38mm radiator on my NB, with just regular Prestone green concentrate and distilled water 50/50, and OEM Mazda cap and thermostat. Coolant temps stay in the 190's at all times. It very rarely gets above 200 except on the hottest summer days, usually when sitting in traffic.

Pros: stable coolant temperatures, rarely overheats
Vehicle: Mazda

Another vehicle the rad got low and the stream pretty much melted the top where it connected to the hose. New rad was on backorder and I needed a car so I cut the melted but off at a clean angle and attached a chunk of ABS pipe using high-temp JB weld which I reattached the hose too after it set. I regularly checked it over the next 1-2 weeks until the shop got a new rad in and had no issues.

Pros: no issues
Cons: rad got low

I have the koyorad myself, bought it used. Spend some time sealing the nose to force all air through the radiator and you'll never have an overheating issue naturally aspirated.

Pros: no overheating issue

One of the best replacement radiators for sure but you’ll have to get an external transmission cooler for it to work as the Koyorad doesn’t have an integrated transmission cooler that autos use.

Pros: best replacement radiator
Cons: no integrated transmission cooler
Vehicle: Nissan
