Is the crack on the top tank? If so, it's nothing a little JB-Weld won't fix

I fixed a BIG crack on mine like a year and a half ago and it is still going strong

I also put some JB Weld on my car, but in the California Desert heat it went to crap. So I replaced it with a larger radiator and went ahead and took out the water pump as well, look for rust, if you see any you should go back and check the water pump. Rust=Bad

From an Aussie perspective, the 1G CRX ( we only got private imports of them) Radiator won't fit in a 2G. Different mounting points and size. But we only got the ZC powered 2G CRX here.

Try having to replace a SiR radiator - I had to get mine custom made
