05LGTWagon Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 So, driving down the road this evening and my radiator decides to sh*t the bed. The top (plastic) tank cracked/broke and blew coolant all over the front of the car. I already have it all pulled apart, just need to source a new one. Any suggestions of what brands are best/most cost efficient and where I can get them are greatly appreciated. I'm considering the Gimmick Motorsports off of IIR.com. Any input is appreciated! Thanks everyone in advance! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Underdog Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Do you have an automatic or manual? Mishimoto is the brand I run - all aluminum, available in standard size and extra-thick core (about 25% more volume), about the same cost as OEM, lifetime warranty. The thicker radiator requires you to trim a tiny bit off the ends of the radiator hose to fit perfect. Let me know if I can price out an OEM or Mishimoto radiator for you. The Crimson Dynamo
05LGTWagon Posted January 21, 2014 Author Posted January 21, 2014 Got one from performance radiator new oem for $135. Not exactly what I wanted to do but it was inexpensive and got the car back on the road today. Thanks for the help everyone! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
VEX_JB Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 I personally do not like Mishimoto, they're crappy inefficient chinese cores. Spend a couple extra bucks and get a good Koyo.
