Jables Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 I did a bit of searching before i asked this and i didn't see the exact question answered so sorry if its a normal question and i didn't see it. I personally haven't seen a stock 510 radiator and one didn't come with the car so i made a phone call to a friend of mine. He told me a lot of his buddies ran the VW Scirocco one. So here's a pic of whats on the way: How hard is this going to be to mount up in stock loacation and is there anything i need to do special in order to run stock motor? Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 All you have to worry about is mounting it, and connecting the engine hoses to it. The VW ones I've seen are much smaller, and they use the stock VW mounts in the Datsun. That radiator looks huge! Quote Link to comment

HRH Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 If you want another option, you can use a 2000-2004 Ford Focus radiator. It's quite an easy install. There's a write up on my website as that's what I'm using. http://www.mattalbertson.net/datsuntech.htm Quote Link to comment

ppeters914 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 The VW Rabbit and Pontiac Fiero radiators are also commonly used. Quote Link to comment
