note: i had my front mount and dual elec fans installed since the beginning. a stock rad on a sr running more boost is risky business imo.</td></tr></table><span id='postcolor'>
yeah my S14 KA rad was same size as the one in my clip I think the only one smaller was early S13s. &nbsp;anyway i did mine over the summer, while not as hot as Arizona we had some 90 degree scorchers and never a hiccup from the car. &nbsp;I've got a single 14" electric fan pulling on mine and thats it. &nbsp;i just as of yesterday put on a greddy 1.3 bar Padiator cap. &nbsp;I'll get a new radiator this spring when I get some more money and throw round two of the power mods at the SR. &nbsp;right now Im still running 7psi. &nbsp;still get some good directed air from the grill between the headlights. (mines hollowed out too) &nbsp;I may fab up a piece to cover all that so the air is FORCED through the rad also.
