Hey guys,

I have the Nulon green stuff from super cheap and just have mixed it to 50% because of the ali radiator. :)

It should be a mix of about 50/50 anyway to get the best balance between cooling, anti-corrosion and low temperature protection properties.

Any green or blue stuff that is glycol-based will be fine. Don't get the longlife pink OAT stuff. Unless you want to do an extremely thorough coolant flush first, as the two types do NOT mix. Well, they DO, but with very bad results...

Or if you want to go mental, check out the waterless coolant that is starting to gain some momentum. Just let us know how you get on with it if you do!
