CSF 7217B High-Performance Radiator Black for NISSAN Skyline GT-R (R32) 1989-1993

The RB26 engine found in the R32 GT-R is particularly known for its ability to produce significant power while remaining reliable. However, with increased power comes a substantial increase in heat output. While the factory radiator does a decent job, it's always better to have more robust protection.

CSF set out to engineer a premium radiator that would provide maximum cooling efficiency while also being built for longevity. As the R32 is a valuable collector's car, it makes sense to use the highest quality parts when restoring or modifying one. Featuring CNC-machined billet aluminum end tanks hand-welded to a high-quality aluminum core, this radiator performs as good as it looks.

The 2-row, 42mm core not only increases the radiator's capacity but also enhances its ability to dissipate heat. CSF's exclusive B-Tube technology increases heat dissipation by approximately 15% compared to standard oval welded tubes. Additionally, the super-efficient multi-louvered fins maximize airflow through the radiator core for optimal performance. The increased number of cooling rows also boosts the overall efficiency of the radiator. More cooling tubes mean more surface area for the coolant heat to dissipate.

Each end tank is crafted from CNC-machined billet aluminum, providing incredible strength and durability. The CNC machining ensures incredible precision and uniformity. The result is perfect end tanks that mate flawlessly to the 42mm core. Hand TIG welding joins the tanks to the core, creating the most robust radiator on the market for the R32 Skyline.

Included with every radiator is a 1.4 bar high-pressure cap featuring a debossed CSF logo. High-pressure radiator caps raise the boiling point of the coolant. This allows the system to be protected from boiling over at higher operating temperatures. While the radiator is designed to protect the system from these temperatures, it's always beneficial to have extra protection for situations where the coolant gets too hot.
