Hi there,
I have a 98' Super custom, 3ltr diesel (KZH100G-MRPGT) in Australia. The current radiator is partly made of plastic, and one of the outlets at the top that connects to a small hose has degraded and is not long enough to clamp a hose to, so I have been told a I need a new radiator.
I have been quoted $1000 aud for a new Daiwa (japanese) radiator from a local radiator specialist, that is also plastic like the one I have.
I also found a seller on ebay selling full aluminium radiators for my van with a 30,000km warranty for $630 (https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/222332614247).
Has anyone else used a full aluminium radiator? Will it be better than a plastic one in the long term?
I noticed the cores are running horizontally on the aluminium radiator, and the are vertical on my current one - will this make a difference?
Cheers in advance.
