What makes this radiator different from the stock one?

This Mishimoto radiator features an all-aluminum construction with a thicker, dual-core design for improved heat dissipation. It also includes an integrated transmission cooler, which the stock radiator does not have, helping to keep your transmission fluid at optimal temperatures.

Does this radiator come with everything needed for installation?

This radiator is designed as a direct OEM fit, meaning it bolts into the factory mounting locations. While it includes the radiator and internal transmission cooler, you will typically reuse your original hoses and clamps, or you may need to purchase new ones separately depending on their condition.

How does the internal transmission cooler work?

The internal transmission cooler is a separate circuit within the radiator's end tank. Transmission fluid circulates through this cooler, where it is cooled by the radiator's coolant before returning to the transmission. This helps prevent the transmission fluid from overheating, especially under heavy loads or during spirited driving.
