So I broke the top plastic part of my radiator and now I'm just going to buy a new radiator and for the price i'm just going to go ahead and get this one. i figger the ebay one since its the radiator, u can't really design a bad one for our car, and they are the same dimensions. plus all aluminum means i won't break the plastic again lol

the one i want

thoughts, comments, concerns?

 

i personally don't trust the ebay parts.....
you can consider the Koyo radiator for evo
they fit right on, no modification required
it's a nice upgrade...twice the capacity than stock one
just my thoughts!!

 

get a real part, something that is a important as a radiator dont cheap out, get a koyo or just get another oem one.

 

Wrong post...

 

Does the evo koyo radiator bolt right in? I don't think I've ever seen a definite answer on that one (there was always some debate about the hoses hooking up properly).

 

IM not to smart with the lancers but call CBRD and see if there radiator would fit. idk though. just a thought

 

Well, I was recommending a CBRD Radiator, but then saw he had a lancer, and I don't know how fitment is on those cars...

 

ill find out for you guys, never even thought of that.

What i researched and found on the forums was that the kyo fits in no problem, its the upper hose that causes the problem but if i remember right its too long so i can just cut it and in case I need the evo upper my friend has his still so i'll swoop on it. I'm pretty sure that if the koyo fits in the OZ then this knock off will too. I've accually had good luck with ebay on parts no complaints but i also don't buy stuff that i think is crap. This well be another test on a part from ebay the way i look at it. who knows if this thing turns out good then others can follow but if not then i can stop any one from making a mistake

you can get an eaby one but make sure you get one that is identical to the oem.

i just picked up a mishimoto all aluminum civic half sized radiator with a 14" fan for 200 shipped whole lot cheaper then 650 from AMS

this is the evo one

 

the koyo for the evo is good fits flush
the AMS one is a great choice
what a deal you got for that one sweet deal

 

so i got my ebay radiator and installed it. Fit perfectly no modifications and it looks nice the only problem is that night i crashed into the back of a maxima that hit a land rover in front of him
