where to buy?
hi,im after a new radiator and clutch kit with flywheel,where would be the cheapest/best place to get all this,the car is a 98 impreza sti type r.is the rad just a standard fitment one liike any other 92-00 classic? do i need a 225mm or 230mm clutch? the car is as far as im aware standard apart from full 3" decat which i will be removing and putting on the full standard oe system as its too loud!the car feels very fast,it feels quicker than my old my99 uk turbo ruuning 315bhp,are standard type r's really that quick lol? im on a very tight budget as ive just purchased the car so would i just replace with a standard clutch? thanks guys.....would be lost without SN!

I'd be tempted to go for something like an Excedy Organic clutch, its not a lot more money than an OE clutch and will future proof you for any mods you may do in years to come. Its not a heavy clutch and will feel the same as the standard one, but be just that little bit more heavy duty.
I'd guess yours would be a 230mm, think it was only the early cars that had the 225mm clutch, either way a 230mm clutch will fit, you just have to skim the flywheel. Speak to Bob @ Aztec or David at API, they should be able to help and at a reasonable price too.
As for the rad, fit an alloy one first as last. A new OE rad is around £100 mark and you can pick up alloy ones for not a lot more.
