    Forged Racing Aluminum Radiators





    Well by now you should have started seeing these being mentioned on the site. It truly is a beautiful radiator over your Brand M and Brand K. It is a full aluminum construction factory shrouds bolt on as well a twin fan option is available. This is not some re-branded version of something else it is brand new and has taken many things into consideration. The biggest being tube count and size. These are the expensive portion of a racing radiator and most often skimped on. I did some simple math down below to just give and example of how that works out.

    The ForgedRacing Rad is 55mm thick - Core size is 650 by 340 - there is one tube every 8mm =72 tubes all tubes a 1mm meaning you have 3.4 cm square of frontal area per tube. with there being a total of 244 cm square of frontal cooling area. Your Koyo has one tube every 10mm and uses .8mm tubes giving you 163 cm sq of frontal cooling area. Which is a huge difference.

    Plus it also has that same extra size on the back as well. So massive extra surface area.

    No epoxy has been used in the assembly of ForgedRacing both Brand K and Brand M use it. Epoxy is used to ensure no leaks but is an insulator Forged racing solves this problem by testing every radiator that is produced.

    Anyways intro price for GTRC is $300.00 fans can be had for $150.00

    It is a dirrect bolt in. The dual 12" fans are rated for 2430 CFM with a 17.5 Amp draw. No that does not include shipping or tax. However it is Alberta so only GST. I will ship for $40.00

    Cheers

    In updated the specs at the beginning I am not really sure how to answer your question some would call it a 3 core double cool but I prefer to merely go by the dimensions and not label things

    Its a dual core. Its the same thickness as a dual core koyo. I dont think anyone makes a triple core for a r32.
