Radiator and a Turbo in a CRX, Here's how! Lots of pics
Got my Neukin manifold and had this in mind from the start. Alex at Neukin worked with me and hooked me up with a kick *** manifold/3inch DP and Turbo. After lots of measuring and thinking I decided to mount the radiator under the t-bar.
First I cut the bracket that the condensor mounted to out.
This is the C&R radiator 3/4 style btw
next I mounted the Radiator under the t-bar

Here is a peek with the t-bar installed

here is the mount setup, used a fabbed up angle aluminum with rubber bushing to take some of the shock of a lowered car. bolted in and using the radiator lower tabs.

Another view, sorry I was standing on my head, you can see the tab coming through the bracket.

Top view with everything mounted. Nice and clean

Front View

May not interest all but thought I would share. Should be running soon!

a lil bit more of custom fabbin would solve that problem give it a try b/c that cap looks to be a PITA unless you have another cap in the system somewhere not seen

How often do you actually pull the cap? Usually you fill and check the overflow tank unless doing some work to the cooling system, then it looks like 2 10mm bolts and it's off and out of the way. I haven't pulled my radiator cap in months, 2 bolts every few months doesn't sound like a big issue.

full races pwr radiator fits with some turbo kits, not all, including theres wit a 3in downpipe.. nice setup though..
Full races radiator is not for turbo setups, check their website.
And this is a larger radiator and I already own this one.
4 bolts isn't that big a deal, and its better to me than the gangster lean EG Radiators.
If you don't like it no biggie, I know there are lots of people that want options.

i agree with u if ure talking to me, im been looking 4 a way to mount mine. i have been through about three rads since i started this project, and seening what u did gives me more ideas.. i like ure setup, congrats .. and as far as taking 4 bolts every once in while , i see no problems with that...
Its all good, just sharing ideas with those in need. I've gotten more than my share from here so I try to give when possible. I can deal with the HT haters, lord knows I teach 5th graders for a living.

i pop my cap to refill it b/c it leaks
i'm in the market for a new radiator but i'm leaning towards the eg setup w/a x member to prevent gangster lean
