View Full Version : Other vauxhall radiators that fit nova?
Do any corsa ones fit? Need a decent 1 for my V6? but no local gsi ones so was thinking of making one fit? :confused:
corsa one might go, i know the cav/cally ones are waaaaay to big though

Astra? Mk3.
SRi is the same as a GSi. TBH a normal 1.2 one would probably be just as good, mine runs pretty cold
1.4 sr, sri and gsi are all the same. Nothing online?
I got a brand new one of ebay for £20, valeo but its the 2nd biggest petrol model

Corsa one wont use the standard mounts, But could prob be made to fit, Just not sure how well.

I'd get a alloy one (cause i have one) they do dispurce(sp?) the heat much better.

i have a 1.2 rad mate might give it a go see how it runs lol
Should be fine. Mine only used to run hot as the old grille and bumper blocked a lot of air coming in, the new Mk2 stuff has way better airflow.
Have a look in the articles section, I made a thread about radiator sizes
Be fine^ i had mate run a 1lt one on his xe track car, sat a little warm but was fine.
I thought 1.0 rads had both pipes at one end?

Good point
Oh, thought it was only 1lt one that are half size and stand on long legs?
1.2 all the way to gsi have the blanking thing that goes round them, if thats what you mean by half size. Diesel rad is the only one that is full length/depth.
No, not the cowling. You get some that are half the size (slam to cross member size) they sit on 3-4inch legs so they still sit in the middle. I thought it was 1lts that had them.
