    there really arnt any, koyo makes a rad for 3gs and they do cool better then most but it looks exactly like stock, so if your wanting sometihng that looks better you can either get a civic half size dual core and mod it to fit (same cooling as a full size single core) many turbo guys run this becuse it saves space. or you can get a 90-93 integra alum dual core and mod the bottom tabs to fit .

    I have a Spectra radiator that is 4 years old. Its a stock replacement but it does not have any problems keeping the engine cool. I've driven in some very hot summers and it never had any issues with leaks.
