Radiator Replacement For Ke35

[Fu-Leng]

Hi all.

 

My radiator is dead, lower hose tube is rotten and core has holes on it, so I need to replace it.

The problem is that I can't find any Ke radiator sellting in Portugal, so I'll need to adapt. If I order some company to make a new one it will be around 250€, that's why I want to try to find one that easy fits there.

Anyone knows of some replacement radiators that can fit (or easily adapt) on the Corolla KE35 (using K engine)?

I already heard about the Honda Civic one, but the lower radiator tube on the civic is on the right side, and not on the left like the KE engine.

 

Any help is good. Thanks in advance.

stock one is easiest. maybe try ebay ? any radiator from another car of similar size will require different mounting points.

Hi all.

 

The problem is that I live in Portugal, and here it's very dificult to get a new one for the model. But I managed to a new one for starlet KP61 model, it's a little bit larger but it will fit, and just for 90€. Not bad :)
