I wouldn't buy it because there is no way to check the product's history.

It looks like a universal Made in China radiator. Prepare to do some tweaks if you want to use it.

Fluidyne and Koyo are the most popular but if you search on here you'll come up with more brands.
About $300-400 for one of those.

to be quite honest I woulnd'nt cheap out on such an important piece as a radiator. Failure can mean thousands of dollars worth of damage.

List of things off the top of my head to not cheap out on:
Radiator
Thermostat
Hoses (fuel, or coolant)
Turbo(s)
Wategate
Gasoline

Looking at the radiator in that link, the welds and construction look really crude. And it doesn't give any dimensions so at best it's stock capacity. And if I was going to do that, I think I'd just get a new stock one from MAZDA.

Fluidyne, Koyo N-FLow, Ron Davis, PWR. I wouldn't install anything else.
