I went front mount on a DD that gets occasional track use. Huge benefit and reduction in heat soak. Needed to upgrade my radiator to a mishimoto 3 core to help keep temps down during track days. Overall happy with the upgrade, but not required until you start pushing big power.
Front tie bar, sometimes called a traction bar. Sharpens up the steering response, reduces torque steer significantly and in my case, reduced NVH
I’ve also personally had good luck with mishimoto.
Mishimoto makes a really good aluminum replacement, highly recommend
I would get a Mishimoto all aluminum radiator, superb cooling and you won’t have to worry about plastic failing again.
The crap-tastic mishimoto MMRAD-E36-92 that I use these days do come with a lifetime warranty and I send them photos of the leak and they just send me a replacement in a week or so. I have purchased 6 of them and replaced 2 under warranty. The "Z3" raditator won't fit as its too thick, but the Z3 IS and e36 so its confusing.
No issues for years on mine. Turbocharged with a coolant reroute at 250whp. Had their products in my civic and diesel trucks in the past and had no complaints. Going on 10 years with their stuff.
They're fine. They're one step above oem imo
I have one in my turbo VVT build. It’s big but seems inefficient, to the point that I suspect a properly designed crossflow radiator would shed much more heat by letting the coolant spend a proper amount of time in the radiator as opposed to this giant heat-sink top down tank. It’s on my list of things to replace.
I ran one for 6 years half of which being turbo. The mounts are known to fail so you want to make your own or keep an eye on them. Both sides failed on mine but Mishimoto’s customer service is top tier and they sent me a brand new unit (whole radiator NIB even though only mounts failed) no questions asked. The drain plug is also known to snap if you over tighten it. Again, they sent me a brand new unit when that happened.
