Hey dude, if you going to slant it you will need to be careful of air lock man... I'm currently modifying my radiator specially to be able to slant it... Also the lower return hits the chassis at the bottom when is slanted, unless you want to pay the price of the radiator to get it modified, I would not suggest slanting it... Maybe cut into the front valance slightly to get some few Cm... About 30 to 40 mm is possible gain that way...

Cutting the valance?? :shock:

How would one go about doing that??

Ive got the R33 radator and its around 4-5 cm higher than the SR20 one...All im worried about is that i might end up with a radiator that wont fit....
