Where to get a radiator for a GSR cheap? New, not used.

 

oem replacement koyo is $115, it's a direct fit and not a cheap china knock off

 

I have had luck and many others with the godspeed alum rads... you can get them on ebay

 

radiatorbarn.com! 1 day shipping usually!

 

Where did you buy these online? Link? Tnx!

their ad is wrong about "fits all models except gsr 94-97, i have came across more than a couple 96-97 gsr's with the denso model.

if for some reason you need a showa those are available for the same price.

difference is mainly how they install and the fans sit

 

get this one and from this site unless you can find cheaper. fantastic oem replacement radiator. over 5k miles on it. drove it straight 18 hours for a road trip in blistering hot weather and no problems.

Thanks dude!

Nice find!!

 

if you have the extra money you can always go all aluminum and buy mishimoto's; it has lifetime warranty too

 

Anything with a plastic top will eventually fail, just like the OEM radiator. I'd go with an all-metal one. My bro's radiatorbarn.com radiator is running great 3-4 years after he got it.

 

i think those mishimotos are a waste of money, especially if your car is not heavily modified..otherwise a decent plastic one will get you down the road for many many years.

can't mount oem fans properly and it eliminates the condensor fan. If you want fans to fit properly, you need mishimotos slim fans and those are $.

All metal ones fail too. my oem one lasted 10 years with no problems, i replaced it because it started to turn brown.

 

lmao well it fits me perfectly. no ac anyways... i suppose though why get it for 200 when you can get a oem replacement much cheaper...i still like the bling bling that the mishimoto and koyo have :D i was able to mount my stock fan on the radiator though, just no mount for teh ac condenser

 

Wow, 10 years is impressive. At how many miles did you end up replacing it? I just bought an '00 GSR with all the service records; the previous owner replaced the radiator twice. Of course, both times he bought the radiator from the dealer, so he got ripped a new one each time.

As for the radiator barn radiators, my bro uses the OEM fans on his. They have a lifetime warranty, so you're not paying for a new one if it fails.

 

there's a crazy twist here. koyo makes the superior product BUT they don't warranty the full aluminum radiators...

is what it is right there.

 

depending on what your future plans are.. Turbo or not...
plan your purchase wisely. I would get a dual core civic radiator.
better yet, just make sure you get a aluminum radiator. as it dicipates heat much better. and adds and extra bling to your engine bay.

 

exactly what i dont understand... koyo should though, especially cause it costs more than even mishimotos

 

115k miles..the key might be flushing the coolant periodically. every 30-50k miles with honda coolant.

 

isint there a deal on the marketplace for a dual core half rad witha fan for 89 bucks? or are those trash?

 

CXracing aluminum radiators are pretty good. Had mine for about 2 years now.. no problems whatsoever! Fit's perfectly just like OEM.

Got mine off ebay for about $140 shipped.

 

I agree. Don't believe the hype people.

The installed this 80$ shipped radiator this weekend it works great. Big thanks Too Much Torque!
