koyo radiator for real cheap?

[monkiboy]

came across this "koyo radiator" (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7911619783&category=33602&sspagename=WDVW) . seems entirely too good to be true. everything else bout the seller and the info seems legit tho. what do you guys think? i need a koyo bad, and im bout two seconds away from buying the GB one for 305 shipped. but if this is for the real thing too... i mean .... i dont know...

looks to be a stock style radiator.

[mrmephistopheles]

koyo makes stock replacement radiators too.

[monkiboy]

what are the major differences between the oem koyo and the koyo in the group buy, size and more cooling capabilities? would the oem koyo cool better than stock nissan?

[mrmephistopheles]

it'd probably cool right around the same.

Notice the plastic end tanks? Notice the 1-row? Original price of $375 is bullshit, because I bought an all-aluminum 2 core racing rad for $330. Is it worth $180 for replacement of a dead one? Maybe. If you don't have $300 for a 2-core. Is it worth $180 to "upgrade"? Hell no. It won't be much of an upgrade at all.

if you don't mind custom fabricating... why not try a universal 2-row aluminum radiator from jegs for $170-$180 (i might be going this route):

wow it has KOYO written on it and looks fancy with that light glowing on it...

but plastic end tanks and single row will let anyone with some visuals know he's not getting a "oversized radiator"

how about this future e-bayers, dont buy things unless you can see them IN PERSON or some really nice high res images. i mean, its quite obvious its on ebay and cheap for a reason.. these threads suck us into a realm of wasted time.

Some people use 260z radiators. I believe they are 2 5/8" thick, compared to stock thickness of 5/8"
