Blobeye radiator
 

As per title, may need a new radiator for my UK Blobeye as I think it maybe leaking. I will be getting confirmation on Thursday but wanted opinions on the best/cheapest place to get a new rad from if indeed I do need one, I have looked on Google but wanted suggestions from people in the know.

Hi, I got mine from importcarparts.Co. uk. I paid around 90 quid for it. It's the proper standard item for a blob. Not sure if I've seen anywhere cheaper though?
I use these guys as they know their stuff and they will have a good stock

Ricketts Rads in Swansea will custom build an alloy one at a very good rate.

I bought a Tegiwa alloy one when mine went. Performed really well looking at the temps on my data monitor. £150 was really worth it.

im also looking for a radiator for my 04sti....I was going to go for a mishimoto one....is it worth getting a bigger one?

ive just bought a new one euro parts and delivered to the door .

Is this a common problem on the blob eyes then? As can't see a leak on mine but using a little bit of water , but temp gauge is spot on

No dont get the bigger one even my mishimoto thiner one was a tight fit, great rads but honestly a standard one will do the job at any power level.

Mine started leaking after hitting a lamp post in a car park whilst having fun in the snow lol. Got new one from euro car parts cost me bout £60 max and was in stock. Just need to learn how to drive properly now :oops:

I don't think so fella, just an age thing. Mine lasted 10 years, so nothing major.

Ok wonder why mines used a bit of water then

I asked myself the same question as I couldn't find the souce of the leak at first. I was getting concerned as it was losing a cup full of of coolant a month or so. Then I found it in the rad, but I had to rev the scoob up to see it!! Fine bubbles then plopped out :) at least I knew the problem.
Also check all coolant pipes too.

Cheers fella, will be having a proper look Sunday
