CSF 7230 All-Aluminum Radiator Nissan R33 Skyline GT-R GTS 1994-1998 RB26

Vehicle Fitment

• 1995-1998 Nissan Skyline R33 GT-R (RB26DETT - incl. Nismo, V-Spec, CRS variants)
• 1994-1997 Nissan Skyline R33 GTS (RB20DE / RB20DET)
• 1994-1997 Nissan Skyline R33 GTS-25 / GTS-25t (RB25DE / RB25DET)
• 1994-1997 Nissan Skyline R33 GTS-4 (RB25DET, AWD)

Fitment Notes

• Mounts in the factory radiator location with no modifications or cutting required - uses all OEM mounting points and hardware
• Replaces Nissan OEM part number 21410-15U17 (supersedes 21410-15U10)
• CSF 7230 is the brushed aluminum finish version - the black powdercoat version is CSF 7230B
• For the R32 Skyline (1989-1994) equivalent, see CSF 7229; for the R34 Skyline (1999-2002), see CSF 7231/7231B
• For the full billet CNC-machined end tank version for the R33, see CSF 7219/7219B (TopRank collaboration)
• Manual transmission only; confirm compatibility for automatic applications before ordering

Features

• 2-Row 42mm all-aluminum core - significantly increases coolant fluid capacity and heat dissipation surface area over the factory single-pass radiator, providing meaningful thermal headroom for modified RB20, RB25, and RB26 builds
• CSF's exclusive B-Tube technology - seam-brazed B-shaped tube cross-section increases heat transfer surface area by approximately 15% over conventional oval welded tubes, delivering dual liquid laminar flow within the same core footprint
• Ultra-efficient multi-louvered fins maximize airflow through the core for sustained cooling performance under track, street, and high-boost conditions
• High-grade aluminum end tanks, TIG-welded to the core - strong, durable construction that withstands the thermal cycling and pressure demands of turbocharged RB-engine builds
• Pre-plugged 1/8" NPT port on the top end tank for optional coolant temperature sensor installation
• M16x1.5P port on the bottom end tank for optional coolant temperature sensor installation
• Brushed aluminum finish - a clean, period-correct aesthetic for JDM builds and restorations
• Drop-in fit: mounts to all factory brackets and accepts factory radiator hoses - no modification required

Product Description

The CSF 7230 is a high-performance all-aluminum radiator for the 1994-1998 Nissan R33 Skyline, covering GT-R variants (RB26DETT, including Nismo, V-Spec, and CRS) and GTS variants (RB20DE/DET, RB25DE/DET, and AWD GTS-4). As part of CSF's 7000-series Racing & High Performance Division, the 7230 uses a 2-row 42mm core with CSF's proprietary B-Tube technology - a seam-brazed B-shaped tube cross-section that increases heat transfer surface area by approximately 15% over standard oval-welded tubes and creates dual liquid laminar flow within the same package dimensions. The result is substantially higher cooling capacity than the factory unit, with enough thermal headroom to support the heat output of modified and high-boost RB-series builds.

The radiator mounts directly in the factory location using all OEM hardware and mounting points, requiring no modifications or cutting. Brushed aluminum end tanks with pre-plugged 1/8" NPT and M16x1.5P sensor ports allow optional coolant temperature monitoring. It replaces Nissan OEM part number 21410-15U17. The black powdercoat version is CSF 7230B. R32 Skyline owners should reference CSF 7229; R34 Skyline owners should reference CSF 7231/7231B.
