Compatible Subaru BRZ & Scion FR-S Models

The Mishimoto Performance Aluminum Radiator is compatible with:

• 2013+ Subaru BRZ
• 2013+ Scion FR-S

Perfect for:

• Street builds
• Track cars
• Drift builds
• Forced induction setups
• Daily-driven sports cars
• Canyon-focused builds

Because eventually every BRZ owner says:
“I’m only doing wheels and suspension.”

And then six months later there’s an oil cooler spreadsheet open at 1AM.

Aggressive driving ends up in increased engine temperatures necessitating an efficient solution for keeping your flat four cool. Mishimoto’s Performance Aluminum Radiator gets rid of rising temperatures.

Improved Cooling Performance

One of the biggest upgrades over the factory radiator is:

• Improved heat dissipation
• Better coolant temperature stability
• Increased cooling efficiency

This helps maintain:

• Lower operating temperatures
• Reduced heat soak
• More stable engine performance
• Better reliability during hard driving

Especially beneficial during:

• Track sessions
• Summer canyon runs
• Stop-and-go traffic
• Repeated high-RPM pulls

Where stock cooling systems occasionally start sending emotional warning signs.

The Mishimoto BRZ/FR-S radiator features all-aluminum construction with TIG-welded end tanks and a 100 percent brazed aluminum core.

2-Row Full Aluminum Core Design

The Mishimoto radiator features:

• Full aluminum construction
• 2-row cooling core
• Increased thermal surface area

Specifications:

• Overall size: 30.12” x 16.25” x 4.3”
• Core size: 25.6” x 14”
• Core thickness: 1.37”
• Inlet/outlet size: 1.57”
• Tank wall thickness: 0.08”

This improves:

• Heat transfer efficiency
• Airflow cooling performance
• Coolant circulation stability
• Long-term cooling consistency

Especially important because FA20 engines generate surprising amounts of heat for something repeatedly described as “balanced.”

This radiator is constituted of prime quality aircraft aluminum with a elegant finish for the easiest combination of performance and magnificence.

Full Aluminum Construction Benefits

Unlike factory radiators that often use:

• Plastic end tanks
• Crimped seals
• Aging factory materials

The Mishimoto radiator uses:

• Welded aluminum tanks
• Reinforced construction
• Performance-grade materials

Helping improve:

• Durability
• Pressure resistance
• Long-term reliability
• Track-day survivability

Because heat cycling plus track abuse eventually turns factory plastic radiator tanks into stress-management exercises.

The Mishimoto BRZ/FR-S radiator is precision engineered for flawless drop-in fitment at the same time as providing increased cooling capacity and efficiency. The radiator includes the Mishimoto lifetime warranty.

Ideal for Turbo & Supercharged BRZ Builds

• Turbocharged BRZ setups
• Supercharged FR-S builds
• E85 applications
• Drift cars
• Time attack builds

Improved cooling helps reduce:

• Heat soak
• Coolant spikes
• Thermal stress
• Power loss during extended driving

Because forced induction on the FA20 creates enough heat to qualify as a small atmospheric event.

Better Reliability for Track Use

Hard track driving creates:

• Elevated coolant temperatures
• Sustained high RPM operation
• Continuous thermal load
• Increased engine stress

A larger aluminum radiator helps maintain:

• More stable temperatures
• Better cooling consistency
• Improved session reliability
• Reduced overheating risk

Especially important because limp mode is not a competitive racing strategy.

OEM-Style Direct Fit Installation

The radiator is engineered for:

• Direct bolt-in installation
• OEM hose compatibility
• Factory fan compatibility

Typical installation requires:

• Coolant drain
• Socket set
• Hose clamp tools
• Approximately 2-4 hours

No major:

• Fabrication
• Cutting
• Custom mounting typically required

Which is fortunate, because BRZ engine bays already become crowded immediately after the first modification.

Why Upgrade the BRZ/FR-S Radiator?

Common reasons owners upgrade radiators include:

• Track overheating concerns
• Forced induction builds
• Preventative maintenance
• Hot climate driving
• Cooling reliability upgrades
• Sustained spirited driving

A performance radiator remains one of the smartest upgrades for the BRZ platform because:

• Heat affects power consistency
• Track use exposes cooling limitations quickly
• Forced induction dramatically increases thermal load

Especially once boost enters the chat.

Final Verdict

For Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S owners wanting improved cooling performance and long-term reliability, the Mishimoto Performance Aluminum Radiator delivers serious thermal management upgrades with OEM-style fitment.

Key benefits include:

• Full aluminum construction
• 2-row performance core
• Improved heat dissipation
• Better cooling stability
• Ideal for turbo and track builds
• Direct-fit installation

Most importantly, your BRZ finally stops treating every canyon run like a live-action overheating tutorial.
