Anyone used/using this on here?

Opinions please?
Looks to be perfect for the gt turbo.

[Junglist]

they say "no water = no over heating and more bhp" which im unsure how ?

it would help stop corrosion though imo , though i allways choose a coolant with anti corosion

You've been watching Wheeler Dealers haven't you! :D

:D :agree:

[Brigsy]

Renault type d coolant;)

[robx1r]

i'd agree with Brigsy, but your also looking at the wrong type there you'd want the vintage one as its for use with cast iron blocks, plus its purple :eek:

[markey b]

is it actually any better from a boiling point of view, or just a gimmic?

On wheeler dealer I think it said it doesn't freeze until minus 40 and doesnt boil until 160.

I'm going to have a punt on this?

[Woznaldo]

Steve, I think that's what it comes down to. You won't know unless you give it a go!

ha ha sorry couldn't resist

I am tempted too once my rebuild proves it's watertight :)

Apparently it never needs changing and it doesn't build up pressure in your water system

After seeing this thread,I thought I would mention it on the s2000 forum.and some bloke reckons it would cost near on £200 for the s2000:eek:
That's including there flush(which is recommended)

Its avaliable via ebay.

£39.95 + postage for the prep fluid.

£63.95 + postage for the "classic" version.
http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem?itemId=190640110096

So for around £130 delivered, thats the last time your car will ever need new coolant.

If you never have to touch it again once its in, its a very tempting option when it comes to my next coolant change :agree:

Bit of info.....i should be on commission ;)

A waterless engine coolant specially formulated for classic vehicles. Classic Cool 180º protects engine cooling systems from -40ºC to 180ºC. The unique properties prevent many of the problems associated with waterbased coolants such as Corrosion and Overheating.

Benefits

No Water - No Overheating
Vintage Cool 180° has a boiling point of 180°C and will not boilover.

No Water - No Corrosion
Water contains oxygen, oxygen allows corrosion. Vintage Cool 180° eliminates corrosion.

No Water - No Pressure
Power Cool 180° allows your cooling system to run at a lower pressure, reducing the strain on engine components.

No Water - No Liner Pitting
Power Cool 180° generates significantly less pitting when compared with all water based coolants.

No Water - More BHP
Power Cool 180° eliminates premature detonation associated with overheating.

- the liquid won't boil, but I don't know how my C1J would fair running @ 130 Deg C

Plauseable

No Water - No Pressure
Power Cool 180° allows your cooling system to run at a lower pressure, reducing the strain on engine components.

Really - it doesn't expand from -40 to 180 degs?

No Water - No Liner Pitting

Plauseable

I'd have to wait 10 years to see if that's true and strip my engine down

No Water - More BHP

How?

Power Cool 180° eliminates premature detonation associated with overheating.

Only if it runs significantly cooler than water - ie 30deg C which aint good for an engine designed to run @ 90 Deg C

unless you spring a leak........:cooter:

How much water does the standard cooling system take, I normally chuck a hose on it...

[GTphil]

Makes blowing a head gasket even more expensive to fix;)
