RADIATOR SPOUT

[EVO-00X]

OK, no need to tell you what the stock Lancer radiator looks like, other than the water overflow nozzle where the cap is faces backward... which sucks in my current situation so I need to either get it cut off and refixed sideways, or get another radiator.

Reason is I went to bolt up my zorst manny last night and noticed that my current GSR radiator overflow hose is gonna be too damn close to one of my custom manifold runners (manny is ceramic coated anyway but its still too damn close).

Here is a pic of a GSR radiator in an engine bay for example (not my car). See how the nozzle goes backwards - well that sucks in my case. Can a radiator shop simply cut it off and remount it to the left hand side for the bottle? or would I be better off with a VR4 radiator (2nd pic)?

Ah ok, found out the bottom one is from an Eclipse so screw that idea :lol:

I don't think you can cut & remount due to it being plastic.

Yeah spoke to a guy from Natrad and he said can possibly cut it off, fill the hole and tap in a brass nozzle to the side or different angle. So tomorrow morning I'll be nipping into Natrad to get it looked at.
