Sorry for posting this in tech but the install will be in this same thread, this looks like a very high quality radiator, i can honestly tell you that i did not expect it to be like this, it looks just like the fluidyne i bought for my 02 Gt, seriously this thing is amazing the only cheap looking thing in this radiator is the cap but the stock one fits so thats hardly an issue...whoever did not get this radiator in the group buy should have by the way i bought an automatic one since the only difference is the tranny cooler which makes no difference in the radiator on a manual car just plug the tranny line holes got it in 3 days and for 190.00 shipped cant go wrong. Thanks KTELLER.
















The cheap looking rad. cap.

Thank you for the pics. It looks better 'in person' (your pics) than it did on the website IMHO.

I don't wanna get OT but can you PM me and let me know if you think a different cooling fan could be secured to the top lip (the lip that is adjacent the hole in your 3rd pic) of the radiator?

If I ever get one of these, it wont use the stock fan (which actually removes some of the plug-and-play appeal, but OEM radiator mounting would still be neato).

I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the install.

I never heard of this until I saw the sticky. Any feedback from anyone yet on performance?

The letters on the front of the radiators you will never see, the A/C condensor is in FRONT of the radiator when its on the car and the plaque on top is just riveted on, very easily removed.

why remove the name or tag?

If it is a quality part that works well and is WAY cheaper than the common "big name" brands...why be ashamed or try to mask what it is?

So it says something that sounds asian...yet people dont cover up there JVC/SONY/SAMSUNG/ sound systems in there cars or freak out from say cobra seats that are made in the UK.

Esp. after the company came on here and has been helpfull and expressing a desire to put more focus in our market...giving us more choices and compition for all to make a better product.

After seeing some quility issues with the "big name" brands...I would not "knock" someone that is a trend setter.

BTW- it looks good and I wish I could have gotten in on the deal but even the regular E-bay price is a good deal. When I do get around to putting in a better rad. it will more than likely be this brand from what I have seen bang for the buck wise.

I hate you guys!

When you post your new shiny parts, it makes me want to go spend money I don't have on the same parts.

Looks great!

I got mine installed last weekend. Everything was good and a very nice fit. Overflow went back in the same spot. I took it out last night. Went to Dallas which is about 1 1/2 hours away. It never got past the R even when I ran it at Redline. I ran 3 times and it never got hot at all. I was very pleased with the temps.

What's the story on these radiators? Direct fit with no modifications? Looks like a Honda part with that name but hey if it works.
