Hey everyone I don't post much here but I creep everyday on CSS lol.

Anyway, I found out I've got a cracked radiator, broken IC pump and I'll also be needing the connector plug in? For the IC pump, ya know the connector plug with wires.

Anyways I was quoted over 1000 bucks to replace it all and installed with coolan flush AC flush plus recharge all that stuff. I know there has got to be a cheaper way to go about this.

I know a lot of info has been covered with heat exchangers, my question is what do you all think I should do about replacing radiator?

I'm rather desperate for info on what I can do, any advice is welcome and I appreciate it.

 

Just buy everything yourself & do it yourself. It is all pretty straight forward

 

BAM TStone FOR THE WIN

 

Radiator you can find for dirt cheap in the classifieds, I.C pump is like $100 on zzp or ottp and Idk about the connector, but probably less than $20 bucks. So altogether maybe $275 for the part's and the labor well, enjoy a few brew with some friends.

 

i used a bilje pump from a boat for the ic pump (35 bux) its still kicking since halloween time,

radiator was like 200 from auto zone (they break when the jack slips) 1 hour to install, you can order it offline for 100 at one of the discount places,

and we used a 2 pin deutsch connector male and female to get the bilge pump to work

all in all your under 150 and 4 hours at WORSE if you never done it before
