Radiator install: Dealer, Rad shop, race shop?
 
Just wanted to find out where most people went and if they were satisfied. I am leary of who I let touch my 7.

Please only answer poll, if you've actually had one installed.

do it yourself. it is not that hard even for a person who is a beginner DIYer. you'll know it was done right w/o cutting any corners too. or have another rx-7 person help you with your install.

you forgot the DIY option.

Once DIY
Once rotary tuner...

DIY was sure cheaper....but sometimes my time is more valuable...It's not too hard actually...sometimes getting all the air out can be a pain...

Here's a link to an FD3S radiator replacement how-to with pictures.

Do it yourself = Self Installed
 
Gees, I gotta start learning how to work on it myself. I thought the radiator shop would have been the highest votes. Thanks for the replies and the instructions. This will only be up for about a week.

DIY. Once you get out the intercooler, intake, and battery you can remove the fans as 1 unit. Then the rad is easy...

Bribe for volunteers? ...Pizza & beer?
 
I'm hoping to attemp this over the weekend if I can pick up the Fluidyne tomorrow. I wanted the M2 but I can't wait.

Did you guys have to lift the car or is all the work done from above? From the instructions it looks like it could be lifted out from above.
