just get a stock one from a honda wrecker - maybe $50-100 for a non-leaking unit ( get it pressure tested with water to check for any leaks in the fins etc) .

Dont waste ur money on a alloy one , as its quite abit mroe expensive ( $500+ ) and your car will not benefit from it at all.

a brand new one from honda....for your teg....( dual core yes? With the AC radiator too)....i shudder to think.

Guesstimation i THINK woudl be the $500 mark....

as i said before - there is nothing wrong with gettign a 2nd hand unit - as long as it is sealed and isnt rusting etc it should be fine :)

rick damelian quoted me $1200 for a new radiator :)
the aftermarket alloy ones l;ook pretty sexy after that...

i ended up taking my radiator out and dropping it off at a radiator repair joint to have a new top tank attached, no more problems after that.
