sr20det Swap questions

[xzile609]

Done allot of searching unable to find a good setup for Inter cooler radiator combos for this swap.

 

 

Everyone seems to do it different which makes it confusing. they will look nice in pictures but the setup butchers the car pretty bad.

 

Right now the CXracing IC seems to be the easiest to get and install. just not sure about what radiator to use with it.

 

any help/ideas would be great thank you.

All depends on the cooling capacity you need for the SR.. Is this going to be a stock motor or built? I have run a couple different aluminum radiators First one was a summit universal, It was a 2 row aluminum, fit nicely. The second I have since upgraded to is a Griffin 4 row .. a bit wider and requires me to move the intercooler out a bit and space my grille a quarter inch.. I have part numbers written down for both of them at home ill look them up and post pics of both installed.

 

I have seen all sorts of radiator / intercooler setups mounted. the biggest limiting factor is the depth, too deep and you will be running into the pully on the water pump.

 

Here is some good info from another thread of some radiators commonly used in SR swaps
