  1. I purchased and installed a radiator from this ebay seller. My THIRD stock radiator cracked...i'm starting to think it is something other than a radiator that i need to review but has anyone bought from them before? The link is below. My car is a 2002 wrx, mods are TBE, intake, headers 120k mi or so are on it. I should have posted here before buying but I already bought and installed. I will keep everyone posted on issues if they arise. It was def thicker than stock. The only fitment issue was the top hose rubbed against the fan. That was remedied by cutting an inch of the hose from where it attaches to the engine. after that smooth sailing...

    not a bad looking radiator, keep us updated how it holds up.
     
  5. so far things seem to be ok with it. I need to do a thermostat and waterpump i think as it hasn't been done. but the radiator itself is holding up well.
