clicky! (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Opel-Vauxhall-Nova-GTE-GSi-2-0-16v-Turbo-Alloy-Radiator_W0QQitemZ140352306073QQcmdZViewItemQQptZU K_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item20ada63b 99)

[Nova_Tek]

Looks pretty good that, price ain't too bad either. Is it considerably lighter then a standard one? Is it deffinately a straight swop with nothing else needed?

Cheers man may consider one now :thumb:

[Edd]

Iv got one of them rads, excellent quality.

Worth every penny.

[brake-dust]

havent fitted it yet so not 100% but looks a straight swap, this one does feel alot lighter than the 1.2spi rad that come out, will treat it to a lighter fan aswell, precious kg's saved, came really well packed aswell, deffintly a recomendation on my behalf.

[Nova_Tek]

Cool, let me know when it's been fitted. Would like to know if it goes in easy that will probably decide it for me. Thanks

[brake-dust]

what engines it going on fella?

[Nova_Tek]

For a LET conversion. I know the standard rads can be used but if I've said to myself that if I come across a bargain and a big improvement then I'd go for it. Just need to make sure it fits with no work or fuss needed. On kind of an extended budget shall we say lol

[brake-dust]

well this is going on a 2.0 8v turbo engine so should be a fair comparison

[Edd]

It's a direct replacement.

It has the lugs to use the oe rubbers and a standard fan will fit onto it.

Very well made as well.

[Nova_Tek]

Cool if it uses the standard rubber mounts then you can't loose. Gotta see if my budget will extend that way but it's highly possible. Cheers lads :thumb:
