set up

Well don't have a set-up, still building.

I have a 93 and like everyone, i'm planning on running it rough, so what do i look for in radiators? any core sizes (l*w*h)? Type of core? is 600 dollar radiator too much? I see japanese 3 layer alu. radiators going close to 800 and up, are they made differently?

thanks

did you try posting this in the Gen III forum?

i heard that the M2 units are great, but compared to the Mazda Racing, or any other unit for that matter, i don't know if they would be the best.

as far as price is concerned, i guess it's a matter of how much engine goodies you're going to have to protect.

Whenever you modify or upgrade to a aluminum Radiator you are going to lower your temps. Prices for these radiators are expensive but if your going to race its definately a worthwhile upgrade.
