So which radiator for my classic?
 

So should I get .....

Japspeed one on scoobynet group buy for 109 delievered normally 159?

Mishimoto i'm sure is good but nearly twice the price!

A standard one from somewhere else? I know many people say standard is fine.

Import Car Parts - either their standard or performance alloy radiator? (Which seems similar to japspeed one...I know ICP does generally quality stuff though?)

Curios what you all think for my type r.

:worthy:

Sure someone on scabbynet had an RCM alloy one for sale, don't know if they're any better than anyone elses.

A Koyo (from the states if you can get one for a classic)

A Misimoto (because the warranty is sexy)

A standard one. (all will do the job really)

What where your temps like on the ring?

I use a eBay special and never had an issue

Yeah I did talk to that guy Shane but I don't think he knew what he had! He listed as RCM but then admitted he wasn't sure and at 80 pound its near what a number of new ones go for!

Temps weren't too bad I think they have been worse on days with hotter weather i.e. Brand's.

I suppose as long as its made of decent materials it shouldn't be an issue.

Dave if you buy me the ARC we can do more posh accents??

When mine went I replaced it with a standard one as they are perfectly good for power levels way and beyond anything I'll ever run....shy of a lotto win anyway ;-)

:agreed: I would only get an alloy for a bit of bling

Where did you get the standard one from?

I just put a stock one back in my sti was good for the levels I pushed

Ok but can anyone recommend a good source for a genuine or good OE spec one? Otherwise ill just get a decent alloy one.

This guy has a nearly new one for £15 and he's only in Heathfield

I bought my seats off him, he's a good guy.
