Hey Guys
Thought I would do a write up here on an install for my replacement radiator.
Long story short I dodged the Headgasket bullet but I need a new radiator. I have found a Mishimoto MMRAD-STI-08X Performance Aluminum Radiator for a VERY good price on Amazon AUS for $365 total. it is a 3 core radiator which is well x3 times the thickness of stock. Sounds exciting and I am going to get it because it's a bargain, but am going to have to probably buy some silicon hoses that have a smaller O.D. but same 40mm ID as factory. Doing some quick measurements and its going to be a very tight fit between the pulleys, hoses and fan/shroud but I think I can make it work. Ideally I want to keep my OEM fans as have seen reviews of the aftermarket Mishimoto fan kits and they under perform a lot.

Both these suit the EJ25 and EJ20.
So that's it for now. I will keep you updated and post pics
