Alright you guys so it is about that time where the age of my radiator is giving out, i have a 2003 g35 coupe it seems like my radiator is sucking all the coolant and just spilling it all out. I attached some picture so you can see. On the bright side i found Mishimoto radiator for a great price online. My question is if I can I transfer the fan from my old radiator to my new radiator to the new one as well as the hose kit?

 

looks exactly like mine, i tried finding a DIY to replace it but i couldnt, i may just have to take it somewhere. it shouldnt be that hard but i have no clue where to start!

 

I have an 06 and bought a 60 dollar radiator replacement from eBay, lol. My fan slipped right in without issues it's held in by two little holes. I think the 03 has a diff fan, but I don't see why not.

 

i found a diy step by step one but it didn't include any pictures which makes it a little difficult

 

quick question about the radiator that you bought on ebay.. how is it working out for you? and any problems that it has gave you?

 

I'm pretty happy with it to be honest; I mean I only have had it for a few months, but can't complain.

There are only two things I didn't like about it. One the bolt holes weren't attached into their holders, so you have to drop them in. So, screwing them down was a little bit of a pain.

The radiator cap neck also was a little weird,so you had to make sure the cap was on completely.

Other then that it's pretty good and even had the built-in lines for the transmission cooler since I have an AT.

 

Radiators aren't expensive, don't take a chance on buying one on eBay! Nothing damages an engine more than over heating issues. Check out our vendors on Marketplace for a quality radiator that will fit and last you for as long as you own your G35...Gary

 

has anyone done the mishimoto radiator swap?? i just got my radiator today put it on and sadly it did not fit on my g35 it specifically says on the website that its a direct oem swap and no further adjustments are needed. The holes don't seem to match up, the oem fan is a little bit wider than the moshimoto radiator. any suggestions? i was excited on this radiator but it was a fail..

 

I have that one installed on my 03 and it works great, you should contact them it was an easy install for me.

 

did you apply your original oem fan to it or did you use an aftermarket one? and did all the holes line up for you? any pics would help a lot!

 

 

goldempyre, Thanks for the post. I am sorry that you are having issues. Can you contact me directly at patrick@mishimoto.com and let me know what the problem is? I would be happy to help you get this all resolved. I will need you to confirm the year of your vehicle, and if you have an OEM mechanical fan.

Thanks,
-Pat
