Has anyone had any problems dealing with the Koyo aluminum/plastic radiator off of ebay? and if yes, is it a good alternative to a OEM radiator? my radiator has a 1 inch hole so it needs replacing

how much is it? You can get a all aluminum Koyo for like $300. I cant remember who I was talking with on AIM but I gave them a link to it. I'll try & find it.

there is a guy sellin what he claims are 'all aluminum Koyo OEM radiators' on ebay for 140 or so. the question is are the the same good rad's that we want? or like kyb gr2's or whatever they're called instead of kyb agx's.... is it the same brand, just not as good a product from them?

yea, the koyo OEM radiators, for like 135 on ebay, im kinda edgy because right next to that one is a koyo radiator going for about 300, and the 2 pictures are different, one being all silver I"m assuming aluminum and the one im talking about being black top and bottom and silver middle....so anyone had any experience with this type of radiator before?

well the black/silver/black ones are "OEM" which I would deduct is a simple drop-in replacement for your factory one... I believe the all aluminum one is the upgraded version for cars driven harder... I mean most swap people have the all aluminum one from what I've seen

I just went to this radiator shop down the street from my house, they are getting me a koyo OEM replacement, so its all good, however,. what worries me is he kept asking me weird questions about the 2 fans....O_o
