Replacing Radiator on MY95 WRX
I have found the main radiator on the MY95 WRX Wagon has 3 splits in the end cap of it, so new radiator will be needed.
Questions........
Is the radiator the same as UK Turbos?
Is it easy to change a radiator?
Where can i get a replacement from? and how much?

Talk to the local repairers about this before commiting yourself to £100's worth of unnecessary rad.

API David!
I think my Sti has a split which opens-up at high revs dumping the coolant. I live very close to Brum, would you be prepared to give me the name of the Rad-man you use so I can approach him to test/repair the rad?
I've sent you pm too on the same note.
Hope you can help me,

Could I revive the post with the original questions as I think I have the same needs.
MY95 WRX
Basically, the coolant is draining out through some point in the ( I think ) underneath of the radiator to the drivers side of the unit at the bottom. I cannot get the car hoisted to have a proper look. Its going into a shop soon so I can have a look.
If, worst comes to the worst and the radiator needs replacing,
Q1. Are the parts readily available in the UK ?
Q2. How much for OEM and/or aftermarket ?
Q3. Is it an easy job or are there fiddly bits and techniques of a black art that only Subaru dealers know of ?
Many thanks in advance
