CSF has a few of these readily available for anyone that wants one now!

how many row in the csf radiator and the stuck or stander radiator

Stock radiator is 1 row = 15mm thick
CSF radiator is 1 row = 32 mm thick with B-tube technology (~15% more efficient than normal tubes)

Also separate condenser rather than 1 piece design, which is more efficient.

Ravi, are there any electric fans available that will fit the new radiator? I'm thinking with a thicker radiator we would need something with more CFM.

+1 for this. I'd love to know as well.

I've attached a picture of the fan shroud. I'm not really sure if it will accept aftermarket fans.

The stock fan shroud & fans is already pretty good. Considering how poor the direct airflow is with the front fascia design, and how inefficient the stock 1 piece cooling system design is... they are using pretty powerful and large fans to do draw airflow into the radiator.

People who run the stock fans with our unit see the benefits of the extra cooling capacity, B-tube technology, and 2 piece design. Both oil and water temps fall, and are more stabilized.. even under hard/spirited driving conditions.

Sorry I don't have anymore information. Other drivers who have swapped out their cooling systems with a CSF might be able to offer more insight.

The shroud you posted is stock or it comes with CSF radiator?

That is the picture of the stock fan shroud with fans installed.

Still running my CSF radiator after 15,000 miles and going strong.
It was a great upgrade after adding the GTM Stage 1 SC, especially with Texas summers.

^ This is with the stock fans? If that's the case I wouldn't mind the upgrade, keep the fans, and reprogram the fan settings for starters.

Yep, stock fans. I have yet to do the update fan setting but I can bet that will help even more. I probably just need to redownload the software and do it myself since I will not be messing with the tune directly just basic settings.

DIGItonium · 08-14-2012, 01:44 PM

Is that possible? I still have Sam's tune, but it'll be nice to change stuff around it.

[EDIT] Doh, I don't have the tuner license.

I'm buying this thing today while it's a deal. I'm having issues with my AC turning into a blast furnace occasionally when it's balls hot outside. I'm hoping the condenser upgrade will fix that issue. Nissan said it was normal, and I asked "What part of AC blowing hot @ss air normal?"

Any one that may have a CSF radiator it is very wise to use anti seize on the drain plug and pressure valve before you install. The aluminum threads will not hold the test of time. I myself and another buddy had ours snap off of when loosening. Only took half a turn and it snapped. Seems in both cases the female threads get boogered.
