OEM radiator replacements?
Hey Guys, I just posted a WTB thread for an OEM 92 SC400 radiator. I really would like to get a new radiator if at all possible, and I was seriously debating a new one from Toyota for $515. But then I remembered Rockauto, and decided to take a gander.
Question: has anyone had any experiences with these OEM style radiators offered by Rockauto?
The first one: http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/moreinfo.php?pk=365624 for $155
Second one: http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/moreinfo.php?pk=3607179 for $220
Third one: http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/moreinfo.php?pk=338621 $269
They all look identical, but with significant price variation. Has anyone used these before?
LMK ASAP thanks guys!! If these are good quality replacements, I might just overnight one... got a test tomorrow that I can't miss.

A lot of people have had great things to say about Koyo radiators. Including me, it's very well made, might even be better than OEM. KoyoA1306 is totally the same as what I replaced mine with, here's where I got it;

Radiator came in this morning, replacement was successful.Fitment was spot on. Only issue I had was the driver side securing mount is slightly higher than the new radiator, so it is a little loose on that side. I may find a solution for that in the future, but for now she runs fine and I'm happy.
Look at that crack!!
Filthy engine bay from nasty "coolant" spraying all over.
Fits pretty good. I did clean up the engine bay later, but neglected to take pics. But ya'll seen a stock 1UZ bay before.
A little high...
All in all, I am very happy with the fitment and the car drives normal. Still got a CEL issue I can't track down. Currently running a coolant cleaning solution. Should run even cooler once I fill with Toyota Coolant.
