Mishimoto Radiator question
OK so I'm looking into redoing my radiator setup for my 94 eg8. I live in Florida so I think this upgrade will be key. I'm looking into Mishimoto aluminum radiators. Anyone have thoughts on them?? I also see they make fan shroud kits as well as replacement fans. What does the shroud kit include that warrants the price difference. They also make thermostats and fan switches... Any thoughts on what I should get? Thanks.

They are a well respected name in cooling. Just like fluidyne and others. Make sure its a legitimately one, some claim to be mishimito like eBay rads. Their shroud should be for use with a slim fan, which will free up more space and give you more aesthetic appeal in the bay. Beats shoving plugs or zip ties through it. Looks much better. Imo, the stock fan and shroud. Make sure you get a good quality slim fan that will match or exceed the displacement of the stock fan. No need for their switches or anything unless you want their name on it. Oem switches are normally preferred, or your local automotive store replacement is a good substitute.

And like I said, with the shroud you shouldn't have to use those godawful plugs or zipties to hold the fan to the radiator and it looks much more professional. I will be running a Go-Autoworks radiator in my 4door. At least I'm told its Go-Autoworks. If it's ebay, I'll find out how good their **** is...

Re: Mishimoto Radiator question
i have one in a b16 del sol.
it works great. also got their shroud and slimfan. both work great. their fan is a little loud but i know its working then at least.
makes it look much nicer.
plus with the stock shroud i was like an inch from my tranny.
