If you want a Browns Radiator, happy to do you a discount on mine as i need to order another from him since going to Electric Water Pump to avoid having to run a big crossover pipe.

His radiator/fans/shroud combo is usually $1180, happy to do mine brand new in the box for $900 so i can order the same thing with a different inlet/outlet setup.

I got the Cheapy radiator modified,I had a 5mm plate welded on then we drilled and tapped the hole to accept the thermo fan sensor,I just need the braided tranny hoses made up( tomorrow) ,still got to redrill some holes in the sidebands and refit the AU Fans then I can put it all back together.

I bought the Genuine Toyota long life coolant today( total cost was $48.20) , I had to buy a 4 litre and 1 Litre bottle ( you have to mix it 50% with water) Coolant container says to use distilled water with the coolant, does it really matter if you use tap water???

Tap water contains fluorine , chlorine and many other nasties to make it drinkable
These can effect your rads life expectancy
Use distilled
