Why dont toyota just fit aliminium topped rads as standard.. it would save me all the hassle.
The story so far.. my rads gone (cracked top), i cant get another apart from a toyota one, which is megabucks and i cant see the point in spending a furtune on a stock part. I cant get mine repaired apparently either due to the plastic top.
SO i have now discovered my best plan of action is to buy a Koyo rad from the states SUPPOSEDLY made the the MA70 supra, but in fact is actually made to fit the JZA70 supra (mine)... howver, this is for a manual transmission car and mine is an auto, hence i will have to fit a seperate oil cooler at yet more expense.
All this because of a little crack. What a farce.. this car is def going next year.. probably by being pushed off a cliff.
Anyway, the point of my thread is.. what are the advantages/disadvantages of a seperate oil cooler for the AT gearbox? Can i just fit a universal one or is there some specifics i should be looking for?
Or if anyone has any other ideas or auto rads that will fit in the JZA i'm all ears !! Bearing in mind that the reason i want the koyo is that a US group buy website is selling them at £230 UK pounds.
