The top part of the radiator on my 96 sir-g has a slow leak. I had two friends whose type-r and evolution had the same problem. They took it to a local radiator shop where they replaced the top tank as they called it and pressure tested it. They did this for 180 bucks and neither of them had problems. Would this be worth to do as to buying a new radiator? Has anyone only had the top part of thier radiator replaced?

 

?? replaced top part??

wtf sir-g? you have real JDM sh2t? w/e, if you still have stock one, i'd say replace them with new ones.

 

for that price, go buy a nice Mishimoto rad

Are those OEM fit, will stock fans and mounts work?

 

My radiator had a small crack at the top like where you described. I just used some jb weld, and it has not leaked since. Might want to try that first before you spend money on a new radiator.

 

my oem replacement radiator was less than that just from a radiator shop
