They work for me. So did you log any drop in coolant temps from the new radiator?
DSM_Hottie
09-08-2009, 03:21 PM
Haha sorry about that guys now they work.
No her heat gauge still moves so idk wth her prob is.
Mike said to ignore it, because she only raises to the second squiggly and sometimes a little higher.

I told you to ignore about a million times, she doesnt get any warmer than normal.

Make sure you get one that flows just as much if not more CFMs than the stock one, there are a lot of fans that dont do as well as the stock ones.

What do you mean? Just find a slim fan that will flow more air than stock.
Here is one http://www.streettunedmotorsports.com/parts/mishimoto_dsm_1g_radiator_fan_shroud.htm

Do they sell brackets that fit right? This is the radiator I want to pick up eventually.
DSM_Hottie
09-08-2009, 08:39 PM
Thanks Christopher lol idk if they sell different brackets, mine didn't come with any I had to re use her stock ones and they don't fit right, they work but not like they should.

Mishimoto has a fan shroud kit that goes well with the radiator and I have heard good things with this. You also might want to look into the Mishimoto 62 degree thermostat for a cooler running level since you said you are noticing movement. Contact me for mitsu media pricing on any of these items.

Is 62 degree a typo?

Why thank you! I love them, still need 2 do a wire tuck, she's too messy under her skirt :P

+1 I agree 62!?! That's not right.

No 62 degrees is not a typo, The mishimoto racing thermostat activates at 62 degrees C. The OEM activates at 80 degrees C. My price for you guys on this item is $48.00 You can look it up here for proof. http://www.mishimoto.com/mitsubishi-eclipse-racing-thermostat-95t.html

Well that makes sense now. What is the *F number though? I don't feel like doing the conversion.

Ah ok, I thought you meant 62 degrees F
DSM_Hottie
09-18-2009, 10:14 PM
Yea that's what I thought you meant as well. New coolant temp sensors fixed my problem.
