Default Best Radiator Deal for a 93 EX Manual?

My radiator is cracked and I need a replacement but I'm broke as hell. I found a radiator a few days ago on the Sponsor forums here. It was aluminum OE replacement with a nice cap for $90 but when I checked the site, it was on sale for $60. I checked performance sponsors on marketplace and it's not there!

Best deals I've found so far is:
Ebay radiator for $80 or so shipped.
Autozone for $90 + tax
Aluminum here for $110 shipped.

I'm not looking for some super crazy *** hyper triple core fluidyne sub-zero temperature radiator for $300. I'm looking for a "get my *** to work and not break on me" radiator for "I can barely afford Taco Bell" prices.

Get one from a junkyard, or buy a new OEM one. Autozone,Discount Auto, Advance all try to rip you. they tried to charge me like 170+tax for a new oem clutch. if the crack isnt bad, try searching through local you-pull-it type places. When my rad cracked and was leaking so bad id have to stop every day and fill it up, i said [freak] it and coughed up the 120 bucks for a brand new one.Gl

How's a Cooling System and Flex radiator? Plastic tank and aluminum core from Statracing for $63, plus $9 shipping. Also, has anyone shopped from Stat? Are they reliable?

I only bought one thing from stat but they are good to deal with, good service and reliable products. Also I have a cracked radiator and dont have much money but I am looking for a decent one rather than a cheap one here

i wouldnt buy off ebay. their stuff is mad cheap but my friend was in an accident and needed a new radiator, got one off ebay. two months later he had to buy another because his was leaking or something.

and off topic, i got a cheap HID kit off ebay that kept blowing bulbs, even proper H4 bulbs made to fit it. ebay is very cheap but not good quality items, from my perspective.

i agree with musclehead, try to get one at a you-pull-it place. they can get you stock replacement parts dirt cheap
