I have been told that a TF gemini Radiator is a good fit, I am looking for one at the moment to put in front of my A15

you can run the thermo fan from a thermostat individually mounted on the radiator and have it fed straight from the battery through a fused lead

Also N13 pulsar radiators are big, efficient and just fit. See my photos for details because I dont know how to link it to this post.

I am running a pulsar radiator in fornt of my A15 as well. I thought it was an N13 but looking at 1200coupe's it cant be cos it has plastic tanks, alloy core and the radiator cap is on the other side, on a stalk that sticks into the engine bay by about 100mm. will post a pic

Open in new window

Here is a picture of how I mounted my gemini radiator.
just bolted int to the fron of the car and used some small lengths of pipe to space it out...
If I did it again I would probably put a long length all the way down on each side...

But hey... This works...

Haven't got a thermo tho.

i never had a problem with the gemini radiator when running an a15, but after fitting the turbo setup it wasnt capable of keepin it cool anymore, i've now just installed what i think is a pulsar radiator, i still havent got that working perfectly but with two thermo fans hooked in (1 10" and 1 12") with a bit of mucking around it should be fine

just my experience... a mate of mine is having trouble with a brand new gemini radiator on an a-14.... but i guess there's always other factors that could be influencing

i'd say use a proper thermo control and a relay to wire in the thermo fan so its only sucking power when it needs to

im actually looking at fitting an oil cooler as my turbos are oil cooled only
