As I was tidying up my engine bay with some heat resistant paint (pictures below
 ), i noticed that my radiator has been slowly changing color. i remember on a thread somewhere that if it gets to some certain color, it needs to be changed. Does anyone know how often a radiator needs to be changed, if ever? If one were to change it, does there exist an "upgrade" to the radiator? There's a spot where some take got stuck on the cover.  Other than that, it turned out alright. Been driving it for awhile now and there has been no problems with the heat.

Connections line up just fine. Only remember that the Radiator itself is 2+ inches thick (55mm IIRC) with a 3SGTE it could get fitting issues with the normal radiator fans hitting the turbo, but you will have enough room between the radiator and your header with the 3S-GE.
