Engine radiator MISHIMOTO or KOYORAD
I like my Mishimoto one. But I have an Auto, and the only one they had for the Baja didn't have the cooler built in, so I had to run an external trans cooler. But it all went easy, even with that. Electric fans and catch tank bolted right up no problem
Pros: easy installation
Cons: external trans cooler needed
Vehicle:
Subaru
I went with a Koyorad radiator from rock auto and then I also replaced the inlet and outlet hoses with OE. A new OE radiator cap, too. Subarus are fairly sensitive to cooling system parts, so for any mechanical bits (cap, water pump, thermostat, etc) I highly recommend spending on OE.
Pros: highly recommend spending on OE
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
Exact thing happened to me last year. Replaced with a Mishimoto
Vehicle:
Honda S2000
Just dealt with the same thing with my AP1. The plastic to metal seam fails eventually and causes the leak. I got the Koyorad OE replacement and it was around $100 and took an hour to install.
Pros: OE replacement
Cons: plastic to metal seam fails
Vehicle:
Honda S2000
Koyorad if you want good OEM fitment and a fucking drain bung plus good cooling even for modified engines (we’ve put a bunch of the larger alloy ones into rx7’s)
Pros: good OEM fitment, good cooling
Cons: price higher than Fenix
Mishimoto oem replacement is cheap dependable and lifetime warranty.
Pros: cheap, dependable, lifetime warranty
I got the thicker Koyorad and managed to get it to fit with some redneck engineering, but it was a squeeze.
Cons: difficult to fit with AC
I think theyre decent.
Pros: decent
Vehicle:
Mazda
Mishimoto is crap.
Cons: crap
thats the first one i got adter the oem failed. But a oem rad is just as good and the fitment is bad, it also broke after 2,5 year. I did get a replacement on there warranty with only paying shipping so thats good but i sild that radiator as i needed a better one.
Pros: good warranty replacement
Cons: bad fitment, broke quickly
Vehicle:
Mazda
