CSF needs to fix that leak problem, good company, but that's getting old fast. I've heard of a few leaking at the same place. I hope mine holds up! It performs great.

I just had to swap mine out. Holding up fine so far. My old one leaked a bit from the drain plugs. I chalked it up to the crappy rubber washers they used. And then I broke the upper plug off trying to replace said washer, so it became time for a new core.

Yeah, they need to get it resolved, the plus side is it is fully under warranty as long as I own the car. I just have to go through who I bought it from (Z1) instead of CSF directly so, currently have to get the rad out, take pictures, then wait.

Charles customer service is the best hands down. Guy supplied detailed pics for me, 24/7 txt message support and a quality product. For years and years he has been my number 1 in fuel systems and never fails. Thanks CJM for another bad *** product. Attention to detail is what we all want when building a car and his delivery is spot on!

With regard to CSF, I had to change mine out as well (making this one number 3). They blamed the leak in my motor mounts, saying that the motor moved too much under load which cause the radiator to flex and fail in that area behind the upper neck. I have solid mounts now, so lets see how that works out when/if I have another leak in that area.

I will not allow anyone to use Mishimoto! I will hunt you down and take it off your car! CSF is a stand up company and I know they're working on a solution, because I've seen them cover at least 5 radiators for the 370 in Houston alone. Money strait out of their pocket. Lets all keep our fingers crossed! On the other hand you could have JTran just fab you up a new radiator, he did a killer inter-cooler and radiator setup earlier this week!

So far so good. We'll see how well it holds up. Half my problem was my fault, so I'm not too sore about it.

If Nissan hadn't been such cocksuckers to include the A/C coil as part of the radiator I'm sure we would have more options. Of course I probably just cursed myself to get a leak since I just installed Friday. |
