Hey, I've been looking at changing my radiator as it has been repaired once already.

I've seen the Gospeed aluminum radiators for $165 plus $180 postage on Ebay,
has anyone bought one of these from the US before???

if anyone has any advice for a decent aftermarket radiator, your help would be appreciated.

I have an alumnium rad in my car that I bought off ebay. Came from eastern states and was under $200 including delivery. Been in for over 2 years and still going strong.

Try Tak before you go anywhere else man

I recently bought and fitted an alum radiator for my partner's 03 WRX

Ebay link

It was $199AUD (shipping included)

pretty good fit, and quality was good.
**edit - Tak couldnt source me an alum to suit the GD series at the time.

180 for postage??? lol

I sent tak a pm otherwise will be looking at cheaper options on Ebay without high postage!!!

cheers

I stuck a china spec ebay item in the GC8 this arvo, went in pretty easily, fan holes lined up (a lot better than my f*&'in PWR radiator), only thing I had to do is modify a lip on the top of the radiator as the 2 brackets that extend to support the bonnet rod were catching on it. I can take photos if you need.

I've got the same rad for the same reason. Good quality & fit and was delivered 4 days after ordering. I just had to mod the lip on the radiator support & shorten the hoses.

Almost forgot about that one...
I trimmed the top hose too, as it was rubbing on the radiator fan.
