New Radiator for CANAMSA
I finally got around to unpacking my new radiator for CANAMSA.
31" (790 mm) x 19" (480 mm) x 2 7/8" sized aluminium supplied off the shelf from Summit racing USA. This is the biggest of a
"universal" standard range.
Listed at 180 USD / 1300 SAR / 90 UKP in the Summit catalogue, and ended up costing 280 USD / 2050 SAR / 140 UKP landed here by airfreight.
I'm very happy with it, considering what it cost.
Cheers

You can do it quickly. You can do it cheap. You can do it right. – Pick any two.

The low value of the US Dollar is working in well for a lot of people.
The las thing I had shipped from the USA was a Wilwood pedal box at US$165 + P&P (A$265 delivered) it was A$120 cheaper than the local supply.

I received an RX7 rad, series 6 all alloy from China for $320 delivered to my door by courier. 52mm thick core should do well enough.

I looked at that aswell, but didn't dare going chinese... I'm not sure if they're good quality. So you can let me know, for when I
start my next project  (the S6 rad I bought now, goes into a 1982 S2 RX-7)

the very same rad was available from the majority of US and Australian Mazda tuning shops for an additional $2-300...with the addition of their
sprayed logo!
It seems as good as many others, not as good as a locally made race one, but it is $450 cheaper!

aha, that's good to know
It's just that I had heared some things about chinese rads, and was a bit worried. But obviously, it's not gonna get any better quality by
spraying a logo on...
