Thanks - I just sent a PM to ask about radiators. I'd rather pick one up locally, but if not I'll order one in.

I might araldite a little patch over the hole while I'm waiting. Not so I can drive it, just in case I need to use the car in an emergency, or in case I hop in and drive off after forgetting it's stuffed.

Alot of the Forester boys use the Gopher ebay radiators with no issues, whether they fit as good as on GC's I don't know.

I've been using an ebay full alloy radiator for the past 2 years now. No functional issues but as stated above the fitment was on the average side. Would still do it again.

I've located a radiator listed as 'Subaru Impreza GC8 STI Ver 3-6 92-00 aluminium radiator' - can anyone tell me whether the STI and the WRX use the same part? It looks the same in the pics (no extra pipes/holes/etc) but I just want to make sure.

different part numbers but the same radiator

Great, thanks for the reply. They all look the same but the supplier couldn't confirm.

Sayers...

Sabre branded from Flying Performance (for memory) have a good product. :) And the fitment was absolute schmick. Id recommend them in a heartbeat. Mines 42mm, I did a heap of research, and I found the consensus was too thick was adverse... So bigger is not always better.

That said, its a 42mm core now, (OEM 20mm), and works great behind a fair sized FMIC. I paid about 400ish? :confused:

Brent.

[EDIT] Excuse blurro-vision pic, but so you can visualise. 42mm is not OTT.
