I have read good things about Koyo radiators.
Invision have given me a quote, paying by paypal but EvasiveMotorsports will only accept payment by wire transfer

The Koyo is a *very* good price at $490 shipped but not sure how good these are as I have read stuff about them leaking.

Do you know if the ship to the UK?

I doubt that they will ship it for less than Invision have quoted me.

Edit:

UPS Worldwide Expedited, EDD: October 30, 2006: - $244.08

Cough, cough.

I may have read it elsewhere (e.g. UTH) written by another poster, but the fact that a replacement radiator is of little value did stick in my mind.
doesn't the "value" depend on how modified the car is.. weather conditions.. if you track the car and so on..

it might be worth to fit a water gauge first.. to track what is actually happening.. the digital bar gauge doesn't have enough resolution to see how things fluctuate.

That little widget you have Richard shows water temp doesnt it - no need for a guage with that just to monitor for a bit

Not me, I've got one fitted.

Just some info for you, biggest is not allways the best, you can run "to" cold.

yes.. that's also true.. the blitz picks up the signal from the OBD port, and gives you a centigrade value - including the peaks..

I forgot about that

As quite a few of the BTCC teams were demonstrating at Silverstone with their taped up vents over the radiators.
