hI, the radiator on my St202 (JDM 3s-ge) has cracked and I need to replace it. Toyota have quoted $700 for a new one mad.gif

SO I am obviously looking elsewhere. I foudn this on ebay do you think its worth a try, does anyone has experience with it?

Thanks

Get it at a local parts store they run about 150 and up for a reg. one. if you want aluminum radiator, pretty straight forward how to find them on ebay. By the way, that is for an st205 you have an st202. Double check or be safe just to get the one made for yours.

Don't go with the ebay specials, if you want an aluminum radiator get the koyo one.

I got a generic aluminum radiator from Carquest, I think it cost me $76 with tax. Install took a couple hours (in the dark at midnight in an apartment complex parking lot).
