CX Racing Radiator good buy?

[unvmy98ls]

Hey guys. I have a radiator leak and I just need something that will be dependable for a long trip and still be usable as performance. Have you guys heard of CX Racing and does this look legitimate?

I have one. I think they're exactly the same as the mishimoto radiators. Haven't had it for a very long time so I cant attest to how long it will last but its been holding up fine as long as I've had it.

I got my radiator off ebay for cheaper though than their website.

I've got a CX Racing dual core half radiator on my DC4.... It's for a CIvic, but I made the half radiator fit because i'm running a turbo. It holds up fine and keeps coolant temps down, even with a turbo setup....

I got mine for like $80. look them up on eBay from the seller "just intercoolers" they are a good seller.

yeah they are great!! they make legit stuff actually! haha

lololol.....

Well the welds on mine weren't the best quality or anything, but it works fine and looks cool. Everytime we show somebody under the hood, they always comment on the "racing radiator"

They are not exactly the same as ours. Aside from the fact that they are not made in the same place and do not have the same designs, we have a one year no-questions-asked warranty policy and we pressure test all of our rads twice before they leave the factory.

wow thank you guys so much for the information. I needed to know if they were legit and a decent product.

ok so the smaller rad would still work on NA engines or are they specific for turbo?

For your half size radiator needs

It would work for anything. The DC chassis shares a lot of stuff from the Civic's chassis, I ordered it for a 96-00 Civic. But for yours, you'd probably have to order one for an 88-91 EF Civic. Honestly, I would just order the regular full size though, I had to customize a couple things to make it fit okay. It still doesn't fit perfectly fine becasue of the large fan. I want to buy a thin fan sometime soon....

ok that makes sense thanks a lot Teggy.

from the looks of it, they look exactly the same. many people have also said that your radiators are the same as the cxracing radiators.

even the nameplate on the side of the radiators look exactly the same and in the same spot, of course yours say mishimoto and cxracing says theirs.

but from the welds and everything else. they look exactly the same.

maybe they are different, do you have something that you can show me that they are different?

also i find that even cheap radiators last longer than 1 year.
