There was a group buy for the RD Tibs and I got a set, but sold them cause I didn't feel I needed them at the time. Also, I could easily make them. If you know how to weld, then it should cost you less than $100 in parts. All the necessary pieces are on eBay.

 

I have rd traction bars but never used it,.Still rocking the same oem axels after all these years and hundreds of launches

 

So, I overheated on my last road trip last year.I pulled the thermostat and drove 600 kms home and parked her for the winter.Last month I did a compression test,180 across the board,no oil in my coolant and no coolant in my oil,so I replaced the coolant,oil,thermostat and rad cap.So far over 300 kms with no issues

Any status updates? Any upgrades or track time?

 

Fantastic build! It was a pleasure to read through this thread. Oddly I had never come across it before. Turn up the boost already !

 

So you have two 10/12" fans wired as pushers handling the task of cooling?

 

Yes, Old modded 93 eclipse rad was the prob, had pin leak, had fixed and was worse.Stocker for now, new mishimoto and 840cc injects last night..New meth motor and its dynotime again





















12 psi 1st & 2nd

I recognize that rad! I've been quite satisfied with mine.

 

Trust me, I've had all kinds of issues with overheating on the RD, GK, and Z. The fans and how they cool make much more of a difference than the rad brand or type. Invest your money in the best fans you can find.

 

I agree Jon!,My fans are good, but noisy,I have them mounted to the frame with rubber bushings(since I took these pics),but,still vibrate the whole car when on.new slims next summer...Bored...So heres, some pics of my rad install,some randoms,840 cc injectors,new oil cooler, new genesis seats,etc... ps; The Tib loves this boost weather!!,Driven her till I see salt or snow
