Headlamp washer for European NSX

[Jin1976]

I am now waiting for my Sorcery Bodykit to arrive on the second week of December. My NSX is European spec so it has the headlamp washer/sprinkler. I was thinking of routing the headlamp washer/sprinkler toward the radiator. Will it useful to do it that way or should I just leave it. Got this crazy idea while I was looking at my friend Lancer Evo's water sprinkler for the intercooler.

I hope you're only joking. You'll get a big amount of fog when you spray on the hot radiator and I guess this part won't like the additives in the water. Remember: The cooling water has to be inside the radiator

Although I agree that it is impractical, a water spray on the exterior surface of the radiator would have a large cooling effect. The phase change from a liquid to a gas, combined with convection, is one of the most efficient ways to transfer heat. Of course, the cooling effect would be partially offset by the extra heat the engine would have to produce to lug the extra cooling fluid around.

You could get an even bigger cooling effect by spraying gasoline all over the exterior of the radiator, but again, that’s probably somewhat impractical.

That is why I ask. So it is impractical and might be a waste of time. I'll just clamp them then.
