Default Overheating - Help please

Hi all,

Just went out on a trip to Tescos - on the way the temperature gauge was slowly creeping up to finally resting at just below the max level once there. It's about a 10 minute drive along the motorway to Tescos where I am.

After getting out the car I noticed steam coming from the engine bay so flipped the bonnet to take a look. A small stream of steam was coming out from in between (what looks like 2 radiators). There is also a small hairline crack above a cylindrical tube which sits in between both radiators. The whole area is covered in a rusty colour spray.

Water levels were at zero. Topped these up and went for another spin and once upto temperature the same thing happened again. So it looks like a broken radiator.

My question is how much is this gonna cost me to get fixed? Prices please including the part and labour. Obviously prices will vary but close approximations would be good including various options.

Car is JDM 95 Sti

Thanks,
Paul.
