Yeh guys have to change my radiator in my ek3 civic.Am at the crossroads on if to go with the non genuine one or spend the extra dollars and go with the oem.Would like some feedback from persons who bought the non genuine one and if any problems etc experienced going this route.Thanks in advanced.
Also would i have to change the cap or use back the old cap.

bamboo has ek3 radiator -$500

Thanks bro , but wanted some feedback on genuine vs non genuine.

I have used the ebay rads already and had no probelms with them. Both of my eg8 and 9 and now ordered one for my CTR.

Thanks for the response JDM_GUY.

'ebay' is not a brand so all radiators bought on ebay wont be the same quality etc

cx racing which is sold on ebay is a pretty good brand..it's an aluminium..they also make intercoolers etc

Thanks for the input r3iXmann .Another question will the 0.9 radiator cap work or it has to be 1.1.

either will work but bear in mind that using a 1.1 cap when you had a 0.9 will create more pressure in the system..ensure that all your hoses etc are good.

i disagree with changing.9 to put 1.1 bar. its design to withstand certain pressures and warn when they is above certain pressure in your system, i used oem, spectre premium and metal, also had a buddy who used cx racing, the spectre, oem and cx held up the same with no problems, the metal didnt leak but left sediments in my old ek and was changed cuz i didnt like that.

^ if you can change 1.1 to 1.3, why can't you change .9 to 1.1? once you have no leaks, there will be no problem

no problem there but if a problem where to arise later it would be hidden and excessive pressure would be in your system until a hose bursts or other issues.
My hold point is leave it as it was designed.

At the moment the oem radiator i have has a 1.1.So was asking in case i go with a non genuine radiator and if it comes with a 0.9 , will it work for the system or will i need to get a 1.1.Sorry if i didnt come through clearly at first.Thanks.

ek3 radiators come stock with 0.9.. but as mentioned, you'll be fine either way

Thanks everyone for the input.
