here is the link to the ebay auction. I went through all the guy's feedback and 1 person bought one for an FD. I'm just wondering if it's someone here. It looks like a good deal for $250 plus $15 shipping.





These are Brand New Polished All Aluminum Racing Radiators. They have advanced "deep drawn all aluminum tanks." This means the tanks are molded without as many welds to produce a smooth polished look unlike the more expensive radiators i.e. Fluidyne and Koyo. Our racing radiators do not need special fan assemblies, unlike the other racing radiator manufacturers. Models that have a radiator cap come standard with a new racing radiator cap! (a $15.00-$20.00 savings) These are street performance radiators, which means that they do not require any modifications to be installed. They simply hook up exactly like the factory installed unit "100 % drop in replacement." Since these are racing radiators they only come for manual transmission applications.

Looks like a stock radiater core with stamped aluminum end tanks welded on. There is no point to this. How is a 'smooth polished look' important? I can't see my radiator end tanks anyway.

There is a point to this. The plastic tanks crack on the stock radiator. It's not about seeing the end tanks.

It looks like the point they were trying to make to me. As for 'advanced' they look just like tanks that have been put on OEM radiators for 40 years The radiator I bought from M2 fits just fine and is twice as thick as this one.
