Hey guys, my radiator had some fisures last night (which involved a lot of problems, and a girl in a white shirt soaked with antifreeze) and i did some research and after finally being able to bring it home... i came to a dramatic and world shattering question....
OEM radiator replacement for about 170 bucks....
Custom made aluminum radiator for about 200....
Im willing to pay the difference... but what i would like to know is that, the aluminum radiator is better? should i go for that one, or should i just go get the oem replacement? (which is what i have... with the plastic part full of fissures... but brand new wont be)

well that depends on what radiator you're getting for $200... and where would you get the stock radiator from? when i got it quoted it was like 250 or 280 for the stock one

hahaha that is cuz you have the 4g63, i have a 420a, and the 200 dlls would be for a custom aluminum radiator at a well known radiator shop around here....

ah... gotcha... supposedly they are better at cooling, which makes sense cause it's a light material... i'd say go for it, why not?
