Re:Aluminum radiator for $179 look at the craftsman ship!
I got one of those cheap-o aluminum radiators... except i got mine for 170 shipped...
They are not the best looking things out there... but they do the job... I havent overheated since i installed it.
And i dont have to worry about the shitty plastic end caps leaking...

i jus bought an oem 92+ Auto civic radiator... the core's thicker then the 5spd so it helps on the cooling... keeps the turbo ls nice n cool... only time i over heat is when my fan is off =x

I have a stock 95 EX plastic end-tank core and I've never over-heated and I've been boostin all summer. It would be nice to have one of those fancy-shmancy cores but I'm gonna stick with "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" on this one.

if it works then it works! whoever buys it and saves $$ by not buying a fluydine is smart as far as i can recall. it's like people who spend $300. for dc sport headers and $100+ for an aem cold air intake, and this happens everyday.

I've never owned an aftermarket header before. I went from stock to turbo and never looked back.
I have a fluidyne because I trust it, I don't trust some douche w/ a tig. radiator is a very imoprtant thing, and $100 is worth my peace of mind.

The Ebay radiator looks pretty decent, and for 179 bucks thats a great deal. I dont see a problem with it at all.

good for you bamboo. headers don't do squat realy, i stil enjoyed my headers though when i had them. those welds don't look that bad. they're just big welds. ghetto d has it and it's worked good for him. if anyone has any doubts on anything they want to buy on ebay just search the sellers feedback for the same item you want and email the buyer. bamboo good job on the fluidyne buy ok.lol not tryin to be negative towards you. some people just don't want to spend more money cause they got other bills.
