Hi, anyone out there have, or know where i can find, a rad for my '92 nsx...

mine has developed a leak, kindly pointed out by the girlfriend as 'your cars done a wee'!!! after taking it out, fiddling, and prodding, it appears the bottom tank has split where it's crimped onto the matrix... bum :(

i'm off to a rad specialist tomorrow, but if he can't source a bottom tank (like that's going to happen!!!) it shall be getting some quality chemical metal slapped over it while i wait for a replacement....

can anyone help??

(PS. the second hand one listed on ebay at the moment doesn't look right! no mountings for the fan and fan resistor...)

Not only that but it sat at £150 for ages then they jumped the price up to £250!! A bit like the rear glass they're selling that was £250 and is now upto £350!!

How much is OEM from the US?? There are plenty of discount vendors, have a look on NSXprime for guidance...

Dali list at $400 plus postage, usually the benchmark...

Vtec's prices are good, worth a shout.

thanks for the input... I emailed the ebay guy for his best price, and £197 delivered (EMS) so we have a winner! it's Mishimoto brand which has had good reviews on prime...

my original rad has had a treatment with JB Weld along the cracked tank, and a bit extra for luck, so i'm back on the road, and it'll do as an emergency spare later!

off to look for a rad shield, as the original is is pretty battered on the lower half! dread to think what it would look like without my numberplate in the grill opening...
