Howdy, just registered, so this is new to me. I need to replace the radiator in my 89 prelude manual, i dont have a lot of cash so im looking for second hand parts. I live in South Australia, and havin a hard time finding one. I was wondering if any 3rd gen radiator would fit, and do they have to be manual like mine. Or would any other models have a radiator that would fit.
Cheers

You can use any 3rd gen radiator in your 89 if it's got a manual transmission. The only difference between the auto and manual radiators is the cooling tubes in the lower tank for the auto transmission cooling lines. A car with a manual transmission can use either radiator. If you had an auto, you would only be able to use a radiator meant for an auto.
