Product Description and Specifications

The CSF 3003 radiator features a 5/8 inch thick aluminum core measuring 27 1/16 inches wide and 13 3/8 inches long, optimized for effective heat exchange. The plastic tanks are designed to match OEM style and durability, with inlet and outlet diameters both at 1 1/2 inches, positioned center and left respectively. This radiator uses a down flow design, which directs coolant downward through the core for consistent temperature regulation. Additionally, the integrated oil cooler is a high-efficiency concentric type measuring 14 3/4 inches, enhancing engine oil cooling performance.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement for leaking or damaged Subaru Impreza radiators
• Improves engine cooling efficiency in overheating conditions
• Restores proper coolant flow with OEM-style plastic tanks
• Addresses radiator core corrosion or physical damage
• Supports engine oil temperature control with built-in oil cooler

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure compatibility with Subaru Impreza models before installation. The radiator is designed for a down flow cooling system and requires a compatible CSF cap (part number 4503) as it is not included. Verify inlet and outlet hose connections match the 1 1/2 inch diameters and positions. Properly bleed the cooling system after installation to avoid air pockets and ensure optimal performance.
