Hi guys, having had my mk2 back for 2 months it has problems again. I overheated one day just at 60KMH driving.
I tried to fix it myself, but found my thermostat and water pump were still working. I took it to the nearest mechanic who then replaced the water pump, thermo stat, water vacuum assembly (ontop). However the radiator cap is faulty and there is cracks in the radiator. They repaired some of the core, but said a full recore would cost me $400 minimum
i noticed my auto trans cooling goes thru my radiator.
I dont want another rusty radiator, wot options do i have?
a custom alluminium one? a radiator from a different model toyota? I dont wanna ask Toyota parts for how much I'm sure it'll be ridiculous.
Here is a link in the states, i found one for $123 US, but looks like the top intake is on the LHS for their LHD models.
Could this be turned around or too much stuffing around?

else, if anyone has any suggestions for me would be great.
Can't afford a 7M conversion or anything like that, so the 5M has to last me another year or 2.
Thanx again guys.
