A well‑functioning radiator is the heart of your vehicle’s cooling system, and for a performance car like the 2002 Subaru WRX, keeping engine temperatures stable is critical. At NatialDrive, we supply a high‑quality, direct‑fit radiator engineered for the 2002 WRX, ensuring reliability, durability, and maximum cooling efficiency. Beyond replacement, we also provide valuable tips on how to take care of a radiator to keep your Subaru performing at its best.


Perfect Fit for the 2002 Subaru WRX

Our radiator is specifically designed for:

  • 2002 Subaru WRX 2.0L Turbocharged EJ20 engine

With OEM‑spec dimensions, inlet and outlet positioning, and fan shroud compatibility, installation is seamless and requires no modifications.


Why Upgrade Your WRX Radiator?

As your WRX ages, the original radiator may show signs of wear: corrosion, leaks, or reduced cooling capacity. Transitioning to a new unit offers:

  • Improved Heat Dissipation: Keeps your turbocharged engine from overheating under spirited driving.

  • Enhanced Longevity: Protects critical components like head gaskets, pistons, and turbo systems.

  • Cost Savings: Prevents expensive repairs caused by overheating.

  • Peace of Mind: A new radiator means confident performance on every drive.


Key Features of Our 2002 WRX Radiator

  • Aluminum Core Construction: Lightweight and highly efficient at transferring heat.

  • Reinforced Plastic End Tanks: Withstand high operating pressures and temperature cycles.

  • OEM‑Style Direct Fit: Matches factory mounts and connections perfectly.

  • Leak‑Tested for Reliability: Every unit is pressure‑tested before shipping.

  • High‑Flow Cooling Channels: Ensures even coolant distribution and optimal engine temperature.


How to Take Care of a Radiator in Your Subaru WRX

Installing a new radiator is only part of the solution—proper care ensures it lasts for years. Here’s how to maintain and take care of your radiator:

  • Check Coolant Levels Regularly: Always maintain the correct coolant level in the overflow tank.

  • Use the Right Coolant Mixture: Stick to the manufacturer’s recommended coolant type and mix ratio.

  • Flush the Cooling System Periodically: Perform a full coolant flush every 30,000–50,000 km to prevent scale and corrosion.

  • Inspect for Leaks: Look for any signs of coolant leakage around the radiator, hoses, and fittings.

  • Clean the Radiator Fins: Remove debris and bugs from the radiator fins with low‑pressure water to keep airflow unrestricted.

  • Monitor Temperature Gauges: If you notice higher than normal operating temperatures, have the system inspected immediately.

Following these tips on how to take care of a radiator will protect your investment and keep your WRX’s engine running efficiently.


Step‑By‑Step Installation

  1. Safely drain the old coolant from the radiator and engine block.

  2. Disconnect upper and lower hoses, transmission cooler lines (if applicable), and the fan assembly.

  3. Remove the old radiator by loosening mounting bolts.

  4. Install the new radiator, aligning it perfectly with OEM mounts.

  5. Reconnect all hoses and components, refill with fresh coolant, and bleed the system.

  6. Start the engine, check for leaks, and monitor temperature stability.
