radiators
so i need a new radiator... and I'm contemplating an aftermarket one (might as well right?)
anyone have any recommendations or experiences they'd like to share regarding the performance, install, etc... of any aftermarket radiator?
I'm also looking for this to be cost-effective... I'm running flex-a-lite fans right now (well only 1 fan... the other broke) so if there is nothing wrong with stock... someone chime in and help me save money.
thanks

Tommy,
This is my own personal opinion so please take it as that.
Our cars are not known for BHG problems, so paying too much for a radiator for me is a waste of money. I would certainly go with an aftermarket one, but I wouldn't waste money on an expensive one.
Good Luck,
Jonny

cool... yea i've ran without any fans and a leaking radiator for a while now with no problems... our engines are really good about heat.
but... i can't drive around like this forever... and i'm going to want to use my AC soon... so i figured i'd replace the radiator and e-fan.
Does anyone have any part numbers on aftermarket radiators that bolt right in? I don't want to have to buy a special hose or anything. I want this to be a bolt-in affair.

Im running Koyo and flexalite fans. Works fine with me except that the fans are really loud. performance wise? hmmm.... I don't think that there is much of a difference.
