Its worth it if you want blue coolant tubing. Blue coolant tubes arent going to make it perform any better though.

 

The Mishimoto radiator is solidly built and looks nice. But the car doesn't really need it and you won't see a difference in performance. I installed one when my OEM radiator cracked. I don't like the drain because it shoots coolant horizontally onto the AC hose and it splashes everywhere. Someday I'll make an ell fitting so it drains straight down into a catch pan where it belongs.

 

So would you recommend a different radiator? Cause im not trying to have any leaks its why im getting a new radiator in the first place

 

I have the Mishimoto rad and I think it's great...They do not make one for the automatic so you have to get a trans cooler also... I think the blue will look killer...

 

Your engine is exactly what im looking for, yes i have a manual and a trans cooler is also something im going for, by chance can you tell me the one you have or reccomendations?

 

Also if you dont mind i would love to look into all the stuff you did to your engine, i see the battery bracket and all the cables and would love to have them! I appreciate it a lot to see where to get them

 

The rad you see in the picture is Mishimoto... The hoses are also Mishimoto... The vacuum lines are high heat nylon on Amazon ... The battery cover was also on Amazon... Just search Amazon for color vacuum lines and billet aluminum battery covers...
