[Supras] MK3 Cooling

[FauxZ]

water wetter get both alot of bad press, and alot of misunderstood praise...  It's a great product for what it's designed for, and i'm sure that redline loves that everyone wants it in their cars... but from all the stuff i've read on their page, it just doesn't make sense to use it with coolant..  YMMV..

  LOL whoops, that's what I get for regurgitating stuff I hear.  I've never used the water wetter stuff myself, but I've heard it works great.  Living in the north I just use 50/50 Toyota Red and water.

    50% water wetter??? that's insane!!  If you NEVER have to worry about
    freezing, you use two bottles of water wetter, maybe even one, and the rest 
    distilled water... Change you coolant once a year I'd think..

    If you actually drive the car, and it ever even gets close to freezing,
    (like here in AZ)..  run about 75/25 water/coolant... the benefit of water 
    wetter is lost if you run almost any coolant (check out their stats on
    redline's page)...

    Otherwise, run 50/50 water coolant...  or whatever you need to protect you
    in your climate.
