I need to replace the radiator on my 89 745tic. I have notice Imports Parts Authority on Ebay. Price is alot lower than IPD. Can Anyone tell me if there is more to this than meets the eye. Has anyone bought this radiator from them??

Never used them I bought a rad. from either eeuroparts or fcpgroton don't remember which. IPD is well known for great products, great customer support, great staff...great shipping, and high prices...

FCPG has always come through, but doesn't always have the same parts available. For example, when I replaced the exhaust on my 760T sedan, I used the IPD Sport system...at a significant cost. But, FCP didn't have a high-performance exhaust for this car.

FCP has a 3-row radiator (recommended) for $175, and IPD sells a similar 3-row for $246. In this case, I'd go with FCP Groton.

... That's merely because FCP carries stock or stock equivalent replacement parts, not performance/upgrade parts like iPD does for a few things...

on a side note, my performance cat-back cost me under $150 (i made it myself)
