Koyo Radiators

[JeffC183]

Ok, so I am trying to figure out the best radiator for my s13, I decide to go with Koyo since they have some decent prices. I keep on seeing a bunch of different prices for what looks like the same radiator, and there is also an N-Flow model, but im not entirely sure how to tell the difference, or which one I need, here are the links im lookin at.

What looks to be the same Radiator, but $20 more? I asked the seller about it, to see if I could get some answers. that $269 was the cheapest combined with shipping I could find

There is the N-flow model for $302, which is probably what ill end up getting, unless the the second link I posted is the same thing. Yeah this is pretty confusing.

as long as it keeps the engine cool its all good.

erhm... now for a not half-a**ed response :P edit: make that that quarter-a**sed!

so I looked up some info on these, and pretty much the only difference is the N-Flow has a triple chamber setup instead of just a double on the other. 3 chambers to flow through instead of 2 = better cooling, N-Flow it is.

If your are Running NA then your stock radiator is better than good.

Goddamn it, there is a reason no one else responded because expensive radiators are nothing but bragging rights and waste of money, fool.

there is a black EG hatch with a GSR supercharged motor on here, and that sucker stays pretty damn cool with a FUCKING CIVIC RADIATOR!!!!!!!!

Koyo doesn't have a warranty on the aluminum non-OEM style radiators anymore. If you get a non-OEM style, I'd go with a Fluidyne 2 core. Having said that, I have an EG with the 3 core Koyo and have never had any issues other than some corrosion on the top from standing coolant. Regardless of which one you get, be sure to use Red Line Water Wetter or equivalent to prolong the life of the inside coating. And I got mine for about $280 shipped from JHPUSA.

If you are curious about whether or not these that you have posted are the same, ask for the Koyo part numbers from the sellers. If they are the same, then question answered. If they are different, call Koyo in Torrance and ask what the differences are.
