I just put a new radiator from mazdatrix in last night works great check www.mazdatrix.com

 

No need to change your radiator out. Works fine here in the desert.

 

hm, 195 isnt too bad for mazdatrix radiator... how much was it with shipping rotarypower83?

 

I bought a 3-row rad from the Radiator Barn for about $115 shipped. It works great. Keeps the temp needle down on the 1/4 mark in the summer. Hope this helps.

What year car do you have?

If you have an 83 or newer, then get an air-to-oil cooler from a 79-82 and mount it in front of the rad with custom hoses. If you have an 82 or older, then get the longer 83-85 rad and put your oil cooler in front of it. This is what I did on my 82 and I couldn't overheat the car if I tried.

 

I got a radiator for radiator.com. It was $114 and was a drop in replacement. Everything was a perfect fit. It is a 2 row radiator (same as stock, I believe).
With a 180' thermostat, the temp gage is rock solid 1/3 of the way up the gage. I did the swap a couple of weeks ago and have been very pleased.

 

i bought a www.radiator.com for my 83, the aftermarket ones are 2 row (gsl-se style) vs the stock 12a 1 row. much bester
