I personally have never seen an S15 radiator stateside lol. I needed a radiator for my S13 with redtop Sr in it and someone is offering to sell me one for a great price. Its an oem radiator from an s15. Will it fit in my coupe with zero modifications? Any advice would be great!

Its the same thing. Go buy it.
edit: I meant to say S14/S15 rads are the same. S13 is slightly different where the top mounting points are. Really easy to fab something up there.

I had an S14 (same as S15) radiator in my old S13 and one of the chassis seams made contact with it and put a hole in it.

When you say "go buy it" does that mean its worth it? Is the cooling decent? I was either this or spending twice as much for an Isis. It will be tracked in Atlanta heat during the summer.

As far as I'm aware all the SR OEM rads are copper single core. If it suites your needs and is CHEAP, buy it. I would really have to be in a bind if I could only afford a OEM rad, new Mishimotos are only $220. =\
Nothing helps cooling more than a proper fan setup. Having a nice radiator definitely helps as well. There are quite a few good threads somewhere on Zilvia about this subject.

Works just fine It's just a mounting tab difference. Nothing a drill cant fix. I had an S13 Coupe with S14 Motor and S15 Stock radiator/fan shroud setup.
