8th gen radiator shroud

8th gen radiator shroud

I'm going to pick up my old project and start making this. I used to have a picture of an AE110 with a custom radiator shroud, but I lost it. I found the picture.


And this is the DIY one from sxlostv1 which I am improving upon.


Here's the guinea pig.

wait, what

One of these.

o reary? cant you buy those on andysautosport?

hmm maybe not


that looks cool though do it up.

If it's not too much trouble, I'll start making batches if there's a demand.

that would be cool.

they already exist homie. You can buy them from C-One or BeatRush

i knew i saw them before.

haha even better. I've been looking for them for the longest time.

im about to go to bed, can you post a link to where i can buy one? too lazy to google.

Do you know where to get them? Can you get them?
The AE110 and AE111 ones should work.

Heres the ones from C-One/BeatRush


Kamispeed can order them.. I have the pn on my other computer.

DOT could probably get them from the philippines also.. he has one for his wagon...

Which Japanese equivalent model is that for? Yeah, the part isn't listed on the website, so I'd have to give them the part number.

it's a AE111.. i dont feel like turing on my other computer

they also make a under panel BTW

You're killing me man. LOL And soon my wallet will be killed too. hahaha I'm not in a rush to buy it, so don't sweat it. hehe The radiator cooling panel is pretty pricey for being just a piece of sheet metal. LOL Buying both of those from Beatrush is probably going to be around 300+ dollars.

Starting tomorrow I'm going to start designing my own cooling panel and under panel. I see design flaws that I can improve upon.

If they're a success, I'll start selling them.

If its a success Im in for a set.......

hey jspex! stop posting jdm parts! i see and i want!!!

i would love that panel for my off road needs!!!

poeple say if you want to off road, buy a truck, but its more fun in a car!

whats it do?

sxlostv1 DIY it.. check out his old pics. It looked kinda janky but it works.

I'm buying one from speedlabs, they have it in blue

edit: fixed your thread title and original post. and im glad to see you edited your cars specs... still a bit off on the power though.

Will do. I'll try to improve upon his design or make something completely on my own.

I'm giving it the benefit of the doubt. LOL I haven't listed everything I've actually done to the car in my profile.

Anyways, I finished the templates for the cooling panel. Now I need to source the sheet metal and dremel tool. I'm not quite sure if I'm going to incorporate bends into it like you see in the template. I'm also planning to have the lower section tuck inside the grill area for a better seal. Everything still up in the air at the moment. Powdercoating or paint will be something I need to think about after the prototype is done.



The design had to change again. No pics this time. Tucking it under the front grill like the professionally made ones is a bigger pain than it looks.

what purpose does one of those radiator shroud things serve anyways?

It directs air into into the radiator instead of everywhere else and improves cooling efficiency. I need everything that can bring down the engine temperature right now.

How come?

Dammit Rolla.... Now I must have one and cant find them for sale.

I have an unwrapped/unshielded aftermarket header that heat soaks everything around it especially on my hard canyon drives.

Like Jspex said, Kamispeed can special order it for you. It won't be cheap though. It's around 150 bucks.

I'll be designing an under panel later as well.

mine is unwrapped and shielded...i need to do that...

Rolla is going to get us covered.......

do radiator shrouds even do anything since our engines are so small, and none of us are pushing over 200hp?

NONE that is a bold statement. Some of us are. Yes they make the air go though the rad instead of around it. My car is set up for canyons, yea I may not be the fastest on the straights but add corners and you have yourself a fighting chance. lol....

since only a few(if any) of us are pushing over 200hp to the wheels....

btw how do you buy from those websites? im confused...lol

i dont think id need one.....my jet engines seem to work just fine for now. i dont htink ill switch back to a regular engine anytime soon.
