Description

Nissan Skyline R32 (89-93) Mishimoto aluminium radiator RB20DET / RB26DETT

The Mishimoto radiator Skyline R32 is a full aluminium performance radiator for the 1989-1993 Nissan Skyline R32 with RB20DET or RB26DETT. It is a direct fit with no cutting, fabrication or adapters, and is built for stock and modified R32s on the street and on track.

The TIG-welded aluminium end tanks replace the factory plastic tanks, which can crack under the heat cycling of an RB turbo engine. The two-row brazed aluminium core transfers heat efficiently and keeps temperatures stable during back-to-back sessions. According to Mishimoto, cooling efficiency improves by up to 30 percent. The 1.3 bar high-pressure cap and the magnetic drain plug are included.
