Koyo Radiators N E good?
I was recently in an accident and looking for parts to fix my ride back up. I was on ebay and found Koyo radiators. Does anyone know if this brand is any good? I'd appreciate any input. Here's the ebay link

If you want a radiator, it seems like you either get a Fluidyne or Koyo. As far as I can tell, most people's decision between the 2 is based on if they want the JDM-ness of the Koyo. Fluidyne is a little more expensive if I remmeber correctly.

yes that one is just a oem replacement... if it is 100% aluminum (besides the plastic top) then you could expect a lil bit better cooling then as im pretty sure stock is some kind of mixture. But with only one row its not gonna be that much better.

if your looking for a performance radiator, the evo aftermarket ones supposedly fit, although the hoses are in different locations. but that way at least you are spending money on something that will/should cool better

yeah, that might be true for basic n/a cars, but i reckon if you got a serious FI engine, you could use the extra cooling, and the shiny cover is just icing on the cake
