Radiator Plate

[S14DB]

Does anyone know where to get a Radiator top plate? It's a Aluminum or Carbon fiber panel that goes from the core support to the headlights and pushes the air toward the radiator away from the hood. I have a CF hood and the wind starts pushing up at 75mph.

raretrick.com has them but i would not recommend you buy from there. maybe find someone who can import it for you after you know the brand, etc. the raretrick guys are a shady bunch. took 3 months to get some radiator hoses and 4 months for a CA18 tomei headgasket that they charged me double the original price for :mad:

but get some hood pins or a stronger latch and you wont have that problem, the panel is really for cooling help.

I purchased a Cusco cooling plate from Nukabe Automotive.

I don't want to pin my hood. I've heard the plate helps alot.

Nukabe Automotive only lists EVO and WRX plates

And how is that? Air still travels above the headlights too.

I have the factory gasket installed. It's also has a OEM stlye frame under it. I've taped the front rim down to test it. It's being pushed from the inside.

Wow, wish I would have seen this post earlier... "Shady"?? Sorry Ian, but you know as well as I do that the Tomei gasket you ordered had a set price from Yen and I never over charged you for it.... you paid the same amount as listed on my site. Samco doesn't stock CA hoses in the US, and you were also told this was a Special Order item (same with tomei). Samco took 3 months to deliver, not Rare Trick. Also I believe you asked me to order the Tomei item w/o ever giving me your information or placing an order... If I dont have information or order # then I dont order anything!!! You were also constantly in contact with me, about the order, through AIM, and never mis-lead.

Next time state the facts... have a nice day
