I am also interested in a new radiator....can someone PM me the info for a griffin? Is it a brass core, or aluminum? Can anyone get me one, and tell me how much to ship to 75002?

Yes they are Aluminum.
Griffin has recently decided to get into imports. Taka from Drift Association did a side by side install comparision at the track with a Koyo and a Griffin.
The results were the Griffin operated at 10 degrees less Farenheit compared to the Koyo. The Koyo would also heat soak after a 20 minute spirited session. The Griffin did not.
I had a KA Koyo that I purchased for my RB25 project. In initial shakedown running in city traffic we observed 100 degree celcius readings from the Koyo on the Apexi FC Commander for my PowerFC. I then went out and picked up a Griffin for the S13 KA . We installed it and noticed a ten degree difference in around town city stop and go traffic as well as under short boost runs in comparision to the Koyo. The Griffin also did not heat soak and yes the Koyo did.
The Griffin is actually thinner than the Koyo overall, but the secret lies in the fact that the Griffins fins dissapate heat much better than the Koyo . The Koyo has to many fins to close together, hence the heat soak.
Overall, for the extra $100 some odd dollars the Griffin may cost over the blow out prices on Koyo's people are seeing these days is well worth it. Thatguy if you feel this one is faq worthy go ahead and put it in the faq section.
