Hello Guys,

Looking for a radiator replacement. There is some different ones out there. Which one is the best quality? Looking for stock size for stock car.

Thanks

I remember I got the OEM replacement of click for just under $100. You will need to reuse the same radiator cap, but it has been working flawlessly for about a year. I've never had any issues with over heating even after pushing the car in 90* weather conditions.

Koyo

Not saying you have to buy it from them, but I bought one of these and the fit and quality is excellent. It was the closest to OEM that I have seen in aftermarket radiators.

Koyo is the best quality. OE denso is not available unless you want to spend $600 from mitsubishi.

It's not discontinued, whoever you ordered it from just can't get it.

Just talked to Koyo. They haven't ordered any in 2 years lol. He said if you order 30 of them he can get. So no good.

Any other Raditors you guys can recommand?

Thanks

Have them give you the names of their distributors who might have it in stock.

Was poking around on Amazon today, and came across this:

Amazon - Galant VR4 radiator

Don't know anything about the place or the radiator, but for $113, not a bad deal.
