Having been told today that a radiator for a N/A is as rare as hens teeth, I have a question for all the technically minded on here.

 

"is it possible to fit a TT radiator to a N/A, if it is then whats involved and are there any drawbacks to the conversion"

 

any help gratefully recieved cause my rad is on borrowed time and I'm fed up already with taking things easy.

Hi mate,

 

looks like nobody knows, try looking on items for sale,

or post on items wanted.

 

Could do the trick!

I dont know, but I cant think why not. The Rad is larger, and thats a benefit, and there would'nt be any problem with space for fitment.

isnt the bonnet stay a different shape on the NA?

TT radiator in a NA is not plug and play, but can be done.

The lower mounts are different, but there are ways around that (eg. reposition the old mounts or find some other way to support the radiator).

Also the upper radiator hose has a slightly different shape, but can be made to fit.

 

The Rad is larger, and thats a benefit

 

PS: the TT rad is actually smaller !! but should still be sufficient for a NA
