Radiator replacement
I can’t find original radiator in the store, so if anybody knows some other car type with similar radiator I can use?
Thx. Fun is not the straight line! |

Radiator replacement
If I remember well, jamiemirror posted pics of using LADA radiator, and KristianAE86 posted pics of using Golf MK1 radiator.
But both were not "bolt in" and required some modifications. Did you ask at Fensport (http://www.fensport.co.uk)? Regards Andrej |

I'll see if i can find the topic.  Edit: Not a diesel, it was discussion about a Golf Mk1 diesel radiator available: http://www.aeu86.org/viewtopic.php?p=8819#8819 This one is about the Lada (2107) replacement: http://www.aeu86.org/viewtopic.php?p=8484#8484 1983 - AE86 Sprinter Trueno - import project 2013 - Honda Civic sport - daily driver 2004 - AEU86 dot ORG - daily domain Support our forum, buy from the AEU86 shop: ![[Image: AEU86 AE86 - Radiator replacement]](https://www.aeu86.org/sticker-banner-468.gif "AEU86 AE86 - Radiator replacement")

Radiator replacement
I went to a radiator repair shop (is that spelled correctly??) and he made a new radiator, using the top and the bottom from the old one. The price was approx. 2/3 of the cost for a new one. Dont you have such shops in Croatia too?

Radiator replacement
I would say, that my radiator is as good as new. Remember the top and bottom is made in plastic...

Radiator replacement
Wouldn't some kind of performance rad like a Techno Pro Spirit be ok? I've just bought a pattern radiator from ADL but I kept my old rad so that it can be re-cored and I'll have a spare.

Radiator replacement
I found Nissens radiator, designed for AE86. It will cost me around 150€. I expect to receive it in 2 weeks.
