    UPDATE:

    got email for the place in California, misimoto rad now on it's way by FedEx, and may be delivered to my home address but tomorrow evening.

    Technically (if all goes well, no hold up at customs etc) I could be back on the road next week!

    Default *** radiator

    James,
    Been thinking of getting one of those radiators but leary of the quality as it seems to cheap to be any good considering the cost of a new OEM one.
    It should cool better which is why I considered it.
    Let me / us know how it goes after you get it installed and give it a good sound flogging.
    A bit of black heat paint on the ends and it should look the, "dogs danglies".

    Cheers

    That's what I was expecting, however they put the unit price on the ticket as 74.00, so below the import tax threshold, and delivered to my home address yesterday afternoon.(only down point is that is in Edinburgh and I am near inverness, so had a nice little drive down and back yesterday)

    I'm now off to Honda to get the coolant and then straight round to the car, pics will be in in a few hours.

    Cheers

    Done! new rad on the car and almost back on the road, just need to find out best way to bleed coolant system and that's that.

    Fitment was really good, only slight mods I had to do was on the fan mounting and had to snip a little bit round the pipes but that's it.

    Whole job took less than 30 mins.
