cinquecento rads
Turbo Mini Forums

i know there are a few guys running these, they must be up to the job, is it just the boggo std 1,1l rad to look for?

Yes i moved to the darkside

I believe mine was off a ~'96 1.1 Sporting. I'll check ebay for the one I got now

Found it. It looks like the sporting and the standard 900 use the same rad

i was having a look on ebay couldn't believe the price :) do these rads have 3 ports then or is it 2 and something else?

Yes i moved to the darkside

Instagram @jdm_brett

two ports at one end like the Mk1 metro rad and a small "vent" pipe at the other end,

oh and a rad switch hole

i think im going to splash out :) lol, just made some brace bars to clear the std side mount too,
might have a ducted side mount intercooler then:)

The other one is just a weird mount. I didn't use it on mine as there are plenty of options to fix them. I will probably cut it off. They do have a fan switch hole which I am using

EDIT: Joe got me back

i think the seicento one might be a bit bigger than the cinq one.

might treat myself to one of these ! :)

p.s what kind of fans do you guys run on these ? how do they work with clearance on the altenator ? :)

thanks

I have a 7" ebay fan which doesn't look like it will fit at all

I am using one of the tanks that Demon Rweeks sell, except I didn't pay 8 million euro for it. It has two 32mm pipes, perpendicular to each other

i bought a cinq tank for a fiver

I just got a brand new Cinq rad for £24.50 off eBay.

Just gotta figure out how to plumb it all up in my car now.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

easy,

just look at the metro.

And with fan on. I had to space the grill out an inch or so, and put a slight curve in the grill.

Mine is plumbed in like this, with an electric pump though. When using a mechanical pump, I put the heater feed from the bottom rad hose to the expansion tank, then the bleed from the top of the expansion tank to the top of the rad (little outlet pipe). I used a VW expansion tank.

I thought you had seen the light then and gone back to a 5 port

It's good to here these are capable of handling more heat than I'll need - got one going in here:
