KE ping it real Posted August 22, 2008 Report Posted August 22, 2008 I was just looking at a brand new radiator for an Ae86 on ebay and was wondering if that would be suitable for the Ke35 to run a 4age? The outlets for the water look to both be on the same side as each other Any help is appreciated Cheers - Andrew :jamie: Quote
parrot Posted August 22, 2008 Report Posted August 22, 2008 Not really. The AE86 rad is pretty wide. so most of your fins would be blocked by the front valance. May also run into problems physically fitting it in. I presume the ones you are looking at are twin core rather than single core like a standard AE86 rad. There would be better options. Early Hyundai excel radiators have become popular in AE86's, are narrower, twin core, available and cheap. Maybe a good option but research it first. Plenty of stuff on AE86drivingclub about these including dimensions. Quote
irokin Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 Well if hes trying to fit it to a KE35, AE86 infos gonna be pretty fuggin useless. Quote
KE ping it real Posted August 24, 2008 Author Report Posted August 24, 2008 I managed to find an AE71 radiator in need of a recore so that should do the trick as i've read a couple of other peoples threads and they have been successful with them Thanks for the replies Cheers - Andrew Quote

As far as I know, the dimensions of an excel radiator are the same whether they are fitted into an Excel, an AE86 or a KE35......... Also information about what sort of mounts they have maybe useful. Perhaps I'll just fug off and let him work it out for himself. Quote
styler Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 if you can use the same outlets as your stock one, get a replacement stock one or recore the original with 3 core for perfromance. else if outlets are different get an alloy one made up to suit. Quote

All the 4a ones i have seen have the outlets on the same side so i guess i should get one like that But yeah i think the general consensus is the more cores the merrier :no2: Quote
