Re: URGENT! (possibly) RADIATOR HELP!
ive just fitted a PWR rad and oh my god i hated it and will never do it ever again and i had my bumper off.
dont let me scare you though as the problems i encountered with that were due to it being after market you shouldnt have as much trouble with the standard one.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

regarding coolant is it really neccesary to use the toyota coolant.
ive got 10 litres of gulf coolant and redline water wetter to go with it.
i cant imagine that mr2's can only use one type of coolant?

As long as it's ethylene glycol based and it's mixed 70/30 with distilled water it should be fine.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
