Have you used an eBaY radiator?
YES, I did search about ebay radiators and all of them just ask if its worth using them and how they are. I completely decided to purchase ONE of the ebay dual core radiators, there are just so many to chose from! after all the pics, they all seem to be the same radiator sold by a different user but i don't know. I am deciding between one from the other. All of them are up to $150 (the most i wanted to spend) and all look identical. IF YOU HAVE USED ANY OF THESE RADIATORS, WHICH ONE, AND HOW WAS YOUR EXPERIENCE? leaks..cracks..etc? (If the dual core radiator you used isn't on here, hook it up with a link )
which one???
which one???

I have a Yonoka i think its spelled and it is a great unit.2" thick 92-95 Civic half core style.It is not nearly as pretty as a Fluidyne or whatever but they work exactly the same and Ill keep my 200bucks to buy other parts with.

Re: (s13-t)
I got mine from B18TurboEF on this board[sponsor in classifieds] along with one of his $55 slim line 12 fans and it is a great combo for keeping a turbo ride cool in the summer.

ive got one. My car overheated onthe highwway after 15minutes. After installing one of these, it took 2hrs to overheat
BOLTIN to any EG. with my SOHC, hose fit snug and never leaked. Better fitiment then the PWR rad's which need alot of force to put the hose on.
PS. the fins do bend easy

Just to add. the radiator cap which came with mine was ****. I used the stock cap and it was a real nice seal and fit. better then the OEM neck.
Only mod u need to do to to fit it was trin the radiator fan mounting bushing a tiny bit. took a few minutes.

I'm going to put the radiator on my turbo LS integ so I will need these smaller hoses? what about the stock civic radiator, change the hoses?
