I have a 2000 Acura Integra GSR (3 door, stick shift) and the radiator of my car has started leaking. I need to replace the Radiator and was wondering if people have any recommendations.

What company is the OEM for the Radiator? Is it Koyo? Somebody quoted $195 for the OEM (Koyo) Radiator. Is that a good price?

Does it make sense to replace the hoses, thermostat while I am at it? Anything else that I should be replacing? I plan to keep the car for at least 4-5 years.

Thanks in advance!

Koyo is a great oem replacement, although mine only cost $150 from Ebay a few years ago. It definitely makes sense to replace the hoses and thermostat, use OEM parts for maximum reliability. Flush your system and use Honda coolant if possible, its $14/gallon, but it works perfect.

This should keep your cooling system healthy for 30-45k miles.

I agree, replace the upper and lower radiator hose along with the thermostat. I opted for a CSF radiator (cost was around $100) from radiatorbarn.com for my integra. It has been 4 years and 100,000 miles later, and it is still working perfect.

You can always get a factory re-manufactured radiator as well. I had that done about 25k ago and it is holding up as if it were new.

i just got a factory replacement koyo for well under 150.

and as jesusublime said, get the honda fluid. the dark turqouise colored stuff. it works great.
