Man that sucks. the radiator is brand new.. i'm gonna just take it to a shop friday and see if maybe they can custom make something for me or find the part at a junkyard. So dumb that they discontinued the part... why even sell a car if you're gonna discontinue making parts.. makes me not want to purchase anymore cars.

This car was a steal too. I paid $1900 for it, all that needs fixed is a new resinator and muffler. and that piece. 69k miles on it, interior like brand new. no holes, nothing. clean as a whistle!

 

Another option might be to buy an external trans cooler, and just eliminate the 1 in the radiator. Should be able to do that for about 30 bucks or less.

 

I just bought a Denso radiator for my 5th generation through Amazon, shipped to my house for under sixty bucks. very easy do it yourself replacement
