I need a new radiator for a 02 Legacy L. Doesn't have to be fancy so what kind of prices am I looking at and where might be a good place to buy?

Ok so I went with a Koyo radiator and I have the Subaru coolant conditioner but is there any thing else I should add to the coolant? Or is that enough?

That's fine. You'll need about 2 gallons of coolant, just regular ethylene glycol, none of that pink dexcool stuff.

You shouldve mentioned it earlier, I got my old stock one I couldve sold you for cheap :razz:

So no water wetter or any other additives are recommended?

I run redline water wetter and the subaru coolant additive. The additive just because the manual says to...the water wetter eh I didn't see any real significant drop in coolant temps (maybe 5F at the most) on the stock cooling system, you would get a more significant decrease by running straight up water, but that isnt good in the long run either.
