hi. i just purchased a full size radiator for Dc2R but the standard radiator cap wont fit. what kind of cap do i need to get? ie: 1.1 1.3?

also what kind of fans do i need to run the radiator as im not running the stock fans as they are too big.

how long will my car last without the fans?

1) The Spoon cap I used didn't fit.
I am using a Cusco cap on my Koyo.

2) I am using a 10" thin Fan

3) Car will spontaniously combust in approx 2.8 weeks using no fan.

don't drive without a fan. you'll over heat in stop/start traffic pretty quickly.

The one I tried probs wasn't a Type F one. ISMR trial fitted them.
The BuddyClub one didn't fit either. Cusco was the only one that fit.

Then again, I don't think my radiator was for DC2R (if that makes a difference to what Caps fit?), as none of the holes lined up, and we had to make brackets everywhere to fit the thing.

LOL the spontaniously combusting thing was a joke.

I got my fan from Auto one.

The wiring is the easy part... fitting the fan to the radiator securely is a pain.
