I may have cheaped out and bought a plastic tank rad, but there’s no way it can be worse than this leaky factory radiator.

I had put a half gallon of coolant in the reservoir and it was gone in half a week. Kept topping it off for a while but I was just going through way too much coolant and decided to bite the bullet.

Good for keeping coolant temps in spec. Also good for keeping coolant.

Research shows that 9/10 times coolant makes your engine cooler.

Plastic? Will you have to replace it someday again?

Probably. But I’d rather not spend $400 on the oem part right before the semester begins. So this will do for now.

This is turning out to be a cool story.

Nothing wrong with plastic. Just think of the cash you saved.

Was the integra stolen six times while changing the radiator? :P
