Could use an ebay one. They're cheap and get the job done. You don't need to worry about cooling unless you are doing some serious track days.

Also, check rockauto.com

I think most of the performance ones will be in the same range.

If you are tight on cash I'd get an aftermarket stock replacement before I got a inexpensive performance one.
Check out Rockauto.com, can get them for $100-200 usually.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. really 'preciate that. I found one in my price range. Would I need to buy the radiator hose and the fan for this one?

Looks like a stock replacement; shows fan mounting ears etc.

Looks nice, I wonder how durable it is.... if you get it give a review

Is it necessary to buy the fan and radiator hose or could I use the one's off my car, now?

You can use the stock fan and hoses.

Hell i'd sell my old koyo that uses stock rad hose placement for 150 + shipping. I got a mishimoto to replace it and to move the hose further away from my tubular manifold.
