My radiator started leaking about a week after I bought my car... I picked up a Koyo full aluminum radiator off of ebay for about $300 shipped.

I got mine from here...

Be sure to check what kind of radiator you have before ordering a replacement... I had a Showa on my car.

If you don't want to spend that much for a radiator, check out radiatorbarn.com. They have a dual core metal radiator.

^ agreed with the above statement. I've bought a few radiators from there, $125 shipped for an all metal radiator. i'm only had 1 problem where the radiator didn't match (friends car). They took care of the problem by sending us a new one.

What plastic piece are you talking about? Because if you're talking about the little over flow peace that atatches to the tube that runs into the antifreese resevore then i can help you. i broke that piece off and used jb weld to fix it. it's been great. i can send a pic and directions if it would help.

THe radiators in the new integra's have radiators that have an aluminum cooling area with fins and at each end the radiator has plastic end caps. He is referring to the plastic end caps.
