    have managed to find a supplier that has the proper aluminium radiators for manual vr4s so am just putting feelers out to if people would be interested in a group buy and if anyone is I will speak to them in regard to discount prices???

    I got a ball park figure if we buy 10 I can get them for $200NZD plus shipping so buy the look of it according to his email it would work out about $340 landed in NZ per radiator? so if people are interested I will calculate numbers and get an exact price

    Contact Nuts motorsport, they do a cheepish rad for vr4s could work out cheaper. I will ask them for ye if ye want, I deal with them for silicon hoses and they have never done me wrong.

    What thickness are these, the standard 26mm or the better 40mm?

    Is it these Golpher radiators from Michael Autoparts in Oz by chance? If the answer to these questions is 40mm and yes, then I'm in...............

    Presume we are talking radiators suitable for manual cars only and not tiptronics unless you install a separate ATF cooler, correct?

    not from them but exactly the same. I am getting them direct from Japan and yes they are 40mm thick. Wantavr4 how much are they as would have to look into price conversion to new zealand dollars to see if they workes out cheaper

    Sorry, not sure I'd get one from Nuts Motorsports myself as they are made in China You never quite know what you might get. Could be really good or just made to a price, if you know what I mean..............

    Need more details as to brand, size, number of cores (dual or triple core) and maybe a picture too................

    Still interested though, but will need to match the Golpher price at least unless it's a known Japanese brand like Thrust etc.

    Look forward to what you can tell us about these one's from Japan............

    Cheers

    Well I'm interested but I do think that without some really strong indications or a quote for pricing, people are not going to know if they truly are or aren't likely to be able to afford one or not.

    Is it possible to get the supplier to quote prices for differing numbers ordered? Say for 5, 10 and maybe 15 radiators. Also some idea of shipping costs as well would help too.

    Once people see the real cost they'll be able to make a more informed indication of true interest knowing better what the cost they are committing to is.
    That sound like something that can be arranged, maybe............

    Just my 2 cents worth.............

    Anyway, good job with trying to set this up...............
