Tutorial: Mizu Radiator for the IS300 and AE86 woot!

Postby Token1 » Sun Jun 06, 2010 2:42 am

[url="http://www.tokensolutions.net/products/Mizu-Radiator%252d-Lexus-IS300%2C-83%252d87-Corolla.html"]We got 'em, the price is right[/url], the review and tutorial help right here- token brought it to you first.

******* PLUS A FREE BOTTLE OF MIZU ICE!!!!!!!!!
Mizu ICE is a radiator additive that increases your radiators performance and efficiency by transferring heat more efficiently through the radiator. The additive will reduce your operating temperature up to 30 degrees F, reduceing engine wear that occurs during extreme use. ICE is formulated with a corrosion inhibitor that reduces mineral deposits. This is the first additive that maintains pH levels that otherwise fluctuate over time resulting in core damage.

***** The Mizu gasket for the switch does not seal well, so a W55 tranny gasket was added to the mix.
p/n for the w55 tranny washer is 90430-18008 and is around a dollar. or you can use any washer that fits over the mizu bolt. Someone offering specific car model product technical support, thats a token idea, who'd a thought?

Same modification needed as with the Koyo

The test car took 20 minutes to warm up to the point that the fans turned on (SoCal).

More affordable than the Koyo, great welds as you can see, comes with the proper pressure radiator cap, increases cooling, and has A LIFETIME WARRANTY [url="http://www.tokensolutions.net/products/Mizu-Radiator%252d-Lexus-IS300%2C-83%252d87-Corolla.html"]available HERE[/url]

Unfortunately, like any other aftermarket radiator, this will require an automatic IS300 to purchase an aftermarket transmission cooler. I recommend coolers that have the "LPD" (Low Pressure Drop) function built in that acts similar to a thermostatic feature as you will no longer have the OE radiator raise tranny fluid temps when they are too cold. Yes, just as there are negatives to being over operating temps, its bad to be lower than them.
