Default Radiator

I need to buy a radiator for my eg because it didn't come with one when I bought the shell and I'm getting my motor on monday. I was thinking about getting the Koyo radiator and Samco hose package from passwordjdm. Should i get this or are there better options out there?

Unless you're building a race car pick a radiator up at autozone.

Koyo = overkill for a street car.

If you can find a used bling bling radiator go for it, but I wouldn't pay $300+ for a radiator.

Are you building a race car? or a daily? Budget?

If you have the $$$ go for it, but if it's just a daily driver it's not necessary.

It's going to be my daily. I want something other than stock, but the koyo was pretty expensive. Do you know of any cheaper aftermarket ones?

Check out Mishimoto. There are some specials on them in the Sponsor's Marketplace.

x2, and it's more fun to say "mishimoto" than "koyo"

u can get the del sol radiator and put some thin fan on it, and that should do the job. But even the single core stock one will work too.
