    Default Interchangable radiators??

    is the MA70 auto radiator different from the Jza70??
    or would it be to hard to get an MA70 to fit in a JZ??

    everywhere i am reading seems to ambiguously say they will all "fit"... not really commenting about how easily

    all the a70 radiators and z20 radiators are the same the main difference is the auto one will have auto trans cooler and lines and the manual ones dont.

    dunno about aftermarket best place to start would be supercheap or repco even natrad see if they have one for a ma70 because they were sold in aus. just alloy radiators make alloy ones to fit aswell but probably not really nessacary.

    whats wrong with yours?

    Natrad did an awesome job on fixing mine up cost around 250$ only took them a day.

    ahh there is a crack in the top tank. i figure instead of replacing with the same radiator i might as well look for something that is more suited for a little more then a daily driver. Just alloy has the mz20/21 for $499 that is just out of my price range. i was thinking $350. it was MZ20 u said was interchangable right? i know nothing about soarers.

    ah my top tank cracked too it was around 200 to fix but if you take the radiator to them its slightly cheaper as they they dont have to fiddle around taking it out and putting it in again.

    ill have a look at my reciept when i get home let you know exactly how much it was. I went to natrad in osborne park.

    temporary fix complete. possibly when i pay my excess usage bill to F#(&en Telstra ($2300) i might then look at an alloy.
