When you're pushing an S2000 hard — whether it's a weekend track day or a spirited mountain run — the last thing you want is your cooling system holding you back. Koyorad's Hyper V-Core 36mm Series radiator was engineered precisely for situations like this: tight engine bays, extreme heat cycles, and a factory inlet/outlet layout that rules out a conventional N-FLO design.
The Hyper V-Core's specially developed fin and tube pitch dramatically increases surface area without sacrificing airflow through the core — delivering the kind of thermal management that keeps your S2000 in the power band, lap after lap. It's a bolt-in replacement that retains all OEM fan shroud mounts and stock radiator hose connections, so installation is clean and straightforward.
Every Koyorad All Aluminium Racing Radiator is Nocolok furnace brazed, precision TIG welded by hand, and triple pressure tested before it leaves the factory. This isn't a budget cooler — it's a purpose-built performance upgrade backed by decades of motorsport engineering.
Why Koyorad?
- Precise Tube & Fin Alignment — Strict quality control ensures optimal coolant flow and maximum heat transfer efficiency across the entire core.
- Nocolok Furnace Brazing — All tubes, fins, headers, and brackets are bonded in a state-of-the-art Nocolok furnace, creating a structure that resists vibration, road debris, and the elements.
- Billet Filler Neck — Precision-machined billet filler necks are fitted to every unit for superior strength, durability, and a reliable seal.
- OE-Specific Mounting — Application-specific mounting points for fan shrouds, inlet/outlet hoses, and top/bottom pins ensure a pain-free, no-modification install.
- Hand-Crafted Heliarc Welds — Each radiator is individually Heliarc welded by hand, creating the strongest possible aluminium-to-aluminium bond across all components.
