I need an OEM radiator for KA. Wanted to see if anyone had any good experiences with any places online that werent over priced.

So far i have found

Radiator.com - $94 brand new OEM
Other sites ranging from $120-$150 brand new OEM

Dunno if i should just get the $94....sometimes you get what you pay for...

OEM meaning oem size and fitment i'm assuming. do those places say what brand they are?

Radiator.com was like a conversation thing it's weird....They wanted me to call them but im not exactly ready to buy this second, just looking into it for next week.
Start from the bottom as thats how its in-line
Radiator Expert: I could sell this to you but there's nothing worse than getting the wrong radiator. Your best bet is speaking to George, our lead Nissan technician (or one of his techs), to verify your radiator - he always figures out the right one the first time with just a couple questions. George is here now, but he's on the phone. I can also have him call you back in one minute - what's your phone number and the area code?
Radiator Expert: That shouldn't be a problem, we're right in Philadelphia and deliver to Fairless Hills every day. With a Lifetime Warranty the replacement radiator costs $94. With a one year warranty it's only $74. That's about 1/3 what the dealer charges. Hold on --
You: 19030
Radiator Expert: Your price is coming. Looks like the 93 was a really complicated fit. I'll just quote you the most likely 1 of the 3 possible parts -- Or you're welcome to talk to one of our Nissan techs to be 100% sure. What's your zip code and how soon would you need it?
You: 1993
Radiator Expert: What was the year of your Nissan ?
You: just radiator
Radiator Expert: good. You'll be putting in exactly what you pulled out. Lifetime Warranty and drop-in fit. Do you want quotes on just the radiator -- or installation too?
You: Oem
Radiator Expert: OK. Would you prefer quotes on an OEM or aftermarket radiator for your 240sx?
You: 2.4 liter
Radiator Expert: Do you know the engine size?
You: 93' nissan 240sx
Radiator Expert: What's the model and year of your Nissan?


The only info the other sites gave me was......
1991-1994 Nissan 240SX RADIATOR 4cyl; 2.4L; 146c.i.

For $133 none of them tell me a brand, just that its an OEM replacement, not an aftermarket.......(not meaning performance aftermarket)
