All tanks and brackets are TIG welded by hand in the USA. Their radiators feature a high-tech CAB-brazed core construction instead of epoxy (which can leak). FLUIDYNE quality is what sets them apart from every other manufacturer. An all-aluminum design does not suffer the defects of similar plastic construction.

You may not even realize your radiator neck is cracked until it's too late and you're stranded on the side of the freeway or unable to continue with your track day. The stock radiator has an aluminum core but with plastic end-tanks and hose connections that become brittle and can leak or crack. The latest FLUIDYNE is the best there is.

There has never been a better E36 radiator upgrade than this! For an E36 track or modded street car there should be no reason to ever go back to a stock plastic radiator or compromise on a cheap aluminum radiator. A zinc anode drain plug absorbs static electricity from the coolant which helps prolong the life of temp sensors. We also had new hangers installed on the bottom to accommodate the factory E36 Euro oil cooler and our oil cooler hangers. Our goal was to make this as close to a "drop-in" replacement as possible. The shroud will be better secured to the radiator than before which saves time and hassle. We have made the radiator easier to fit with the stock fan shroud and hanger mounts. The features that made FLUIDYNE a leader in the E36 radiator market continue but with some new elements requested by the Turner Motorsport R&D staff. We have collaborated with FLUIDYNE on improving their already excellent aluminum radiator for the E36. For a direct replacement performance radiator, the Mishimoto is hard to beat!Īdd to Wish List RE-DESIGNED AND RE-ENGINEERED!! More coolant volume means the fluid is not heat soaked for as long (less super heated fluid circulating through the engine). The X-Line uses a thicker core than stock for 91% more coolant capacity but still fits in the original location with no modifications. The stock plastic end tanks are notorious for cracking and leaks whereas the Mishimoto has aluminum end tanks that will never fail. The Mishimoto X-Line radiator is an all aluminum design that replaces the factory plastic and aluminum stock radiator. Mishimoto radiators address all of the defects of the stock E36 radiator in a well-engineered and price-competitive direct replacement unit.
