EG radiator question
my brother's 93 civic radiator finally died after almost 400,000 miles.
i'm suggesting he replace it with a Koyo all aluminum radiator vs. the stealership's $500 OEM radiator. what have you guys used? |
RE: EG radiator question
$50 Auto zone.

RE: EG radiator question
is the $50 radiator from autozone a used reconditionedrad? I'm needing one too and I was going to get the alum koyo rad b/c it's lighter and said to cool better.

RE: EG radiator question
I think it was reconditioned. I didn't care. I needed one asap. They said 50 bucks and i took it.

RE: EG radiator question
get a dual core out of the 94 del sol DOHC vtec. its 2 times as thick hence the Dual core.it'll flow better and you'll have about 150 wrapped up in it and a fan from autozone.

RE: EG radiator question
i upgarded to a koyo high performance rad shortly after doing my first swap in a crx and the car seemed to run better; after i fixed the hose that needed to be cut at an angle and i overheated from loseing all my fluid that is....but i def suggest it especially over a $500 oem one

RE: EG radiator question
i had my brother order a oem replacement model from pro street online's website for $92.
he had to pay for overnight shipping but it beats $500 for the stealership radiator (not including labor). i'm gonna help him install it this weekend. i'm thinking i may swap out his thermostat as well. anybody have a diagram of where it's located? i could download the online helms manual pdf, but that thing has TOO many pages... |
RE: EG radiator question
Follow the lower radiator hose, t-stat is at the other end
|
RE: EG radiator question
thanks dood.
good thing i bought that tube of HondaBond for my own 90,000 mile tuneup this weekend. stuff costs $14 at that stealership... |
RE: EG radiator question
mishimoto radiators are really good and only 150 bucks for a nice aluminum one
