Bumping the thread.

So what did you get? Im torn on whether buying this one:

Or the spectra sold at amazon for $146. Also, if I buy the first one, do you think I should get the one with lifetime warranty? It costs 20 bucks more.

You can get a Spectra Premium from PartsGeek.com for $121 and free shipping:

You might also want to check at Rockauto.com. The $56 unit will probably be fine. Most are made in China, including the Spectra Premium (even thought he company is based in Canada). Mine was $92 from Ebay but that was a few years ago, and it's been fine. If you want new foam seals, you'll have to get them from Nissan, as they won't come with the aftermarket radiators. They aren't expensive. The lifetime warranty is only good if you can find the company when it fails. Mine has a lifetime warranty, but I can no longer find the company I purchased it from on Ebay, so what good is it? As I said before, I would spend the $350 and get the all-aluminum radiator from Stillen if I were to do it again.
