Hey Prelude fans, like myself :D

Recently I've run into a problem with my gunmetal gray 90 Prelude Si (2.0L L4). Normally, this car runs great and almost never presents me with a problem. Just the other day, though, my car overheated on me while on my way home from work :cry:

I've got to get back on the road as soon as possible, since I depend on my car to get me to the places that I need to be for my job. I've done some browsing around online and have found two websites that I liked
http://www.go-part.com/8891-honda-prelu ... 24754.html
and
http://www.radiatorspot.com/honda/prelu ... ml#MjQ3NTQ
Before I make the next step of purchasing, though, I'd like to know which of these two sites has faster shipping. Has anyone ever dealt with either ? If so, what can you tell me about their shipping times? Thanks in advance.

i looked at the sites you provided. Both of the radiators look like they have plastic tops/bottoms with and aluminum core. I bought an all aluminum radiator, because the plastic top was the first to go on my prelude. I have never bought one online, because there is a performance radiator shop near me. Its just my preference, but i would try to get an all aluminum one and not worry about it or one with no plastic parts. I dont know where you live, but look for a company called performance radiator. i know they are in more than one state. I just ordered a part from rockauto.com and they are pretty quick.
