Recommendations for a Radiator
#16
Your opinions are just that...and yes the radiater is the exact same thickness as the oem orginal one i had...the first replacement radiater cracked near the cap, where it is plastic, just like an oem one. So the 2nd relplacement radiater, which is just like the oem spec. is perfectly fine. And as a common sence thought, when your temp. gauge starts to rise, or you smell coolent burning PULL OVER]!!! Doesnt take a genius to recognize overheating and turn the engine off before it's too late.

Uhh, i had a 1800 radiator when the stupid insurance company I went through and it absolutely sucks. Not as thick and a "1 size fits all" thing makes it for an automatic, which creates extra heat as an extra fan is running for nothing. Get the OEM radiator or others that have better if not the same specs.

Koyo if you have the dough. Stock fit.
They have one that is like the 02, and one that is like the 03/04+
I have one in my 04 and it is perfect. I just cut the stock hoses shorter to accommodate for the "thicker" Koyo.
But if your car has some miles on it already, it's a good time to get new hoses too.
