KOYORAD Engine radiator

Rating 5.0

I went with a Koyorad radiator from rock auto and then I also replaced the inlet and outlet hoses with OE. A new OE radiator cap, too. Subarus are fairly sensitive to cooling system parts, so for any mechanical bits (cap, water pump, thermostat, etc) I highly recommend spending on OE.

Pros: highly recommend spending on OE
Vehicle: Subaru Forester

KOYORAD Engine radiator

Just dealt with the same thing with my AP1. The plastic to metal seam fails eventually and causes the leak. I got the Koyorad OE replacement and it was around $100 and took an hour to install.

Pros: OE replacement
Cons: plastic to metal seam fails
Vehicle: Honda S2000

KOYORAD Engine radiator

Koyorad if you want good OEM fitment and a fucking drain bung plus good cooling even for modified engines (we’ve put a bunch of the larger alloy ones into rx7’s)

Pros: good OEM fitment, good cooling
Cons: price higher than Fenix

I went with a Koyorad, but for how much I’ve spent, I should have gone with a crossflow (either Supermiata or Flyin Miata). I also did a coolant reroute, which made me really regret not getting a crossflow

Cons: regret not getting crossflow, perceived poor value
