ebay rads and rad. hose diameter?? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I heard mishimotos had this issue at some point, and I just got an ebay rad w/inlet/outlet diameters of 1.25''. Stocker is around 1.375'', so I'm wondering if the hose is going to want to clamp on correctly. Vendor also carries the larger diameter inlet/outlet rad, but at a premium.

Anyone experience problems w/hoses coming lose/leaking? I'm hoping the clamp will close the sucker down...Will the 3mm difference screw things up?

dunno if last thread got removed or i forgot to submit...admins plz move or advice

I've had 4 different eBay rads...All had the small inlet/outlets.
No problems for me on any of them. Good Luck!
