Review on Spectra Premium CU1897: Enhanced Radiator Upgrade for Hyundai Tiburon: Complete and Reliable Option by Greg Sullivan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great replacement for Radiator

Easy to install although it included an automatic transmission oil cooler line (mine was manual). It wasn't a problem. A few tips for budding mechanics and DIYers: When removing the old radiator, do not remove the fan and air conditioner fan when removing the old radiator for the first time, even the tutorial videos show how to do it. The heatsink and fan assembly is light enough to be removed as an assembly. You can then remove the fans once the entire assembly is outside of the engine bay. Also look out for mounting hardware in the shipping box and don't throw it away as an extra, it's for a reason. Use it to replace the original hardware as it is not compatible with the new radiator. In general I am very satisfied. Newbie installer, took 2 hours. Probably a piece of cake for a seasoned fat monkey. (Skills I admire)

Pros
  • Made from high quality material for longer life
Cons
  • So-so
