Does a Radiator for a '93-'98 Impreza fir a 1991 BF NA Leg?

Post by siouxbe »

Does anyone know for sure if a Koyo Radiator R2218 which fits a '93-'98 Impreza fits into a 1991 BF NA Legacy 5 spd. Manual?
Has anyone first-hand knowledge??? In advance, thanks for any replies.

I wouldn't try it. If it fits a 93-98 Impreza, it's most likely for an EJ18. Even if that radiator mounts okay in your support, I don't think I'd want an EJ18 radiator trying to cool my EJ22.

He's looked at an upgraded larger all metal Koyo for his car that is spec'd for an Impreza. ;) It's a fair bit larger than a stock legacy unit...

These pictures pulled from the Parts America catalog might help you decide; pity they're not at a higher resolution:

Thanks for the info Matt. I retract my statement then :)
