Anyone ever tried to modify a 13b rad. into a 1st. gen?. I might take on this little project this weekend.

 

That 2nd gen radiator is the exact same size and thinkness as the one in your car right now. ( if you are talking about the car sig)

He heard you the first time....

 

First off there is no radiator in my car right now, I went 4wheelin a couple weeks ago and the mounting seam broke off!. 2nd. I was asking if a 86-91 2nd. gen rx7 radiator(the ones that sits at an angle) would fit in a 85 12a engined car. I havent done any measuring yet, but they definetly dont look the same!.

 

i thought you were sellin that ...to pay me BITCH. and yes, if you lean it forward like in a fc it will fit just fine. i have seen this in a few turbo cars. or it will bolt right up to the stock mounts but the pipes dont line up worth a **** and it hangs below the car, so you have to remove or cut the belly pan

 

What the hell are these "pipes"?. jerk off!.

 

the ****** top rad. hose and bottom .... pipes.... sence they come out and bend up and down.... if they went out the rad. straight then it would be just fine... now stop avoiding the point $$
on a side note the core size of a miata is the same , but its thicker and the "pipes" come out straight and dont bend up and down like the fc. so im planing on running a miata alum in my t2 swap

 

In the real world here we call those "pipes" radiator outlets DAVEY!. How bout my 50 weber? as trade?.

 

everybody wants to trade.... well everybody but the people i owe

 

2nd gen rad, alt, and soon the powersteering pump




descent amount of work, and no it doesnt just drop in, or even close for that matter.

you have to cut some steel out to get the right angle, and remount your horns.

 

Yes thats what I was talking about!. Think it cools better than the 12a one?.

 

Havent got to use it yet, need an e-fan and a 2nd gen base model power steering pump with all the lines.

I'm sure it does though, its much much bigger, and its much much lighter so it even helps with the cars diet.
