Radiator: CSF or Mishimoto?

russ138 · 01-26-2018, 11:29 AM

Just figured i'd through in my 2 cents.

My CSF radiator started leaking after 1.5 years (just after warranty) and couldn't get it covered. CSF and Z1Motorsports swore it was an anomaly so I purchased a a new one using my own money. Guess what?... 1.5 years later, the new one started leaking as well! I'm in the process of working with Z1 trying to get this one covered. If I can get a refund, you can be sure I'm not going with CSF again. I don't know if it's the materials or the construction, but it's crap either way.

2 leaking radiators, both 1.5 years after purchase. That's all I have to say.
