mobius Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 hi all went for a run today got 7 miles and had to get a lift back courtesy of the AA temp went through the roof pulled over stopped car loud pop and steam everywhere, on investigation once at mechanics found that the top of the rad has burst along the hard seam at the back of the rad cap. Looking around find that Mr T want £325 plus for part, eurocarparts £248 plus vat, found 2 others a bit cheaper any thoughts or any one used these guys http://www.radiatorshop.net/products/toyota-supra-30-i---24v-turbo-twin-12869 http://www.fastrads.co.uk/catalouge_type/?id=1&utm_source=GoogleSearch&utm_medium=cpc&creative=33942128503&utm_term=toyota%20supra%20radiator&utm_content=33942128503&utm_campaign=&gclid=CMTf7Lm4qrgCFdQgtAodRm8AJg Car is 93 GZ TT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
