Radiator upgrades

I have seen a couple radiators for the 350z but does anyone know if they will fit in the g35c? Anyone know of some companies that are making better radiators for the g35?

I have a Koyo for my G35, just needs the top mounting point relocated.
Any good radiator shop can do it. Koyo also claims to be coming out with a direct G35 fit if you can wait. The Koyo is the best bang for the buck.

Do you see a difference in cooling with the Koyo? I have the koyo as well but have not had it fitted. I am still waiting for my long block from sgp.....1.5 weeks to go.

I have the koyo for my G35 also. Slight mod was made and yes, I did see some differences. I dunno if it was psychological but I swear it felt like my car cooled better. One thing is, its the same size but the material Koyo uses is a lot better and its lighter also. All in all, its a great deal! I can get them for around $300-$320. pm me if you want more info on it if my info didnt help already

The Spring 2005 issue of Sport Z Magazine contains an article titiled "Keepin' the VQ Cool". I found it quite informative -- of couse I should, I wrote it.

To the best of my knowledge to date, no one makes a commerical version of a high capacity G35 or 350Z automatic transmission radiator. The differences between the G35 and 350Z radiators include the distance between the upper mounting "pins" -- approx 27" vs. 23" -- and the filler neck location. And then there's the difference between the G35 MT and AT radiators and between the "mechanical" fan and eletrical fan radiators.

The Koyo 350Z to G35 conversion has been done successfully by Eagle1 and some others.

While on the subject of radiators, does anyone have a stock G35 radiator they're willing to part with for a R&D project? If so, please PM me.
