If it wasn't such a pain to replace the damn thing maybe

I know that feeling, but that's kinda part of the mod game... I have the old one, and I bought Z1's old 1 piece rear rotors knowing that they would have 2 piece rears. Shít happens

Got it finished about an hour ago! Only thing I recommend would be to use the green rubber oring from CSF. Dont use the OEM black rubber ring on the condenser reservoir. :tup: And I did not have to use the supplied ac lines. OEM ones worked with very gentle bending:tiphat:

is 102* F outside...Plugged in my scangauge and immedietely saw it working better than stock. Anytime you get moving from a stoplight or coast down a hill the water temps drop very quickly where OEM would never drop at all. Im pretty happy with it! Ill give a full review in about a week:tup:

what failed on it?

I doubt it. Even thought a had 2 radiators leak from the same location (upper hose neck), they refused to replace it and blaming my motor mounts. I now have solid motor mounts and a recently purchased and installed a single pass version. It would have been nice to know that they were releasing the triple pass, as I would have opted to wait for it and have it installed (especially since I was buying it and not having it replaced by the manufacturer). I will be looking into getting one, but I am not in it a hurry at the moment. I really want to see how long the single pass I just purchased is going to last (and if it will leak from the same location like I expect). Who knows......I may just call UPREV and get it anyway.

I got the new csf radiator from Stillen on Tuesday for 600$ but I waited for it for 9 weeks. Haven't had time to install yet but it looks amazing polished

The lowest 4 fins or rows on the passenger side started leaking, like the welds each slowly came apart. Basically you could load it up with fluid by the end of the day there was none left in the system.

I spent a hot weekend at Sebring and I guess this is the next thing the car needs. I had to keep backing off to let the car cool down. Is it much larger that the OEM one? I'm curious if I'm going to need to move other coolers to make room for it.

It is a bit larger, it fits in the OEM spot and does not interfere with anything really. I believe it is larger towards the engine so does not push out towards the bumper.

Perfect, thank you!

Did you contact them for warranty issues?

Yes, warranty on CSF radiator is full coverage for 2 years. I bought one of the first many many years ago and was out side of the warranty.

Dreamer,

I'm really sorry to hear about your experience with our original unit. I beleive I met you at Z Nationals a couple of years back as well?

If you ever have problems with the new unit, whether it's out of warranty or not, please PM me, and i'll take care of you.

Our warranty is 2 years, but I build out products to last much longer, and I hope that all our products last as long as the car.
- I'm not a salesmen coming on the forums to make excuses, and I hope every customer is happy with our products and customer service.

- this goes for anyone who has had a bad experience with our original radiator.

Thanks for supporting your products and our community! :tiphat:

Glad I opened up this thread, haha. I couldn't remember your screen name, JWillis, but I peeked a couple of shots of your car at Sebring over last weekend:

I was over on the other side, running the Auto-X course with MSCC. Probably the best $20 dollars on Auto-X I've ever spent - seeing all the road course cars going around was quite fun. Shoulda known to find your car on the paddock and introduce myself!

Anyhoo, back on topic. :tiphat:
