Performance Radiators
If you’re into drifting and motor sport in general, power from your high performance car is essential to generate the speed you need. But power creates heat and, the more power you have, the more heat you generate and so you need to be able to cool your engine efficiently and stop it overheating.

Performance Radiators in Australia for Improved Power and Speed
The answer to this problem is a high performance radiator from Dorie Junkie, that will keep your engine at the optimum temperature so it will operate at peak efficiency. The latest performance radiators for sale on our website perform the task far better than their predecessors and offer other advantages as well.
The Benefits Available with Performance Radiators
Around one third of the power from your car’s engine is converted to heat energy and increasing the power by tuning the engine will give a corresponding increase in heat output that needs to be dealt with by the cooling system. Engines, however, will not operate at their best when they’re cold because they’re working against fluids that are thicker than they need to be. The challenge for a performance radiator is therefore to prevent the engine from overheating but to keep it at just the right temperature so it runs effectively and without undue strain.
Radiators were traditionally made from brass or copper, but performance aluminium radiators are now the best choice because they have several advantages. They are:
- much lighter: saving weight is essential when you’re striving for increased speed and the lighter weight means, if there’s sufficient room, that a larger radiator can be used without adding weight
- much better at dissipating heat: typically over 50% better than copper or brass
- flexible and durable
- made of thinner material, which means more fins and rows can be included, providing a larger surface area to dissipate heat.
Get the Best Performance Alloy Radiator for your Car
Selecting and fitting the right performance alloy radiator depends on your car and the space you have under the bonnet. Although a lighter weight means a larger radiator is possible, you have to have enough space for the fan to circulate air and be careful not to block air intakes and trap heat under the bonnet.
Having the right radiator is key to achieving the correct engine temperature, which in turn is essential for maximum power and speed. It will cool your engine quicker between races and maintain an optimum engine temperature for longer performances. All in all, a modern, aluminium radiator with maximum cooling surfaces will ensure the best performance through low weight and high efficiency.
High fin density is vital for track or road racing as well as off-road and we can advise the best configuration for whatever application you have in mind. All the Fenix radiators we supply are manufactured to the best standards from the highest quality Japanese car parts and we have various sizes and types available.
If you are into competitive motor sport, calculating the correct radiator size precisely is impossible given the varying driving conditions. However, if we know the application you'll be using the car for, we can give a fair estimation of the one that’s right for you. So, with our help, you can get the perfect performance radiator for your car and improve its performance considerably.
