What Radiator? (SC + 2jzGTE swap)
So if i needed a new radiator for a 92 SC300 with a 2jzGTE swap already done... what radiator do i use? SC300 or MK4?
And also, whats a good after market radiator that is used? I had a Koyo on the 240.

the best advice i could give you is to search the web to se what fits your standards...
and the mk4 and the sc300 have the same chassis so i guess it would fit or you may need a bit of modifying...

std 425 x 738 x 40mm
supra 400 x 738 x 40mm
25mm difference in height. That is why SH_JZZ30 had to modify the shroud.
Turn the std radiator mounts upside down to make the supra radiator fit in a soarer (sc300, 400).
Make a fan shroud with dual electric fan's like clevercat has done.
TIP buy 2 fan switches (on 90, off 85 and the other on 85, off 80 degrees c) so that you can switch the wiring between the two on off temperatures (eg summer, winter).
Part no. from TRIDON TFS136, TFS139

I thought the megan,mishimoto,jvtr,godspeed aluminum radiators were all the same, but they're not.
I've been comparing radiator pictures for the past 20min, and If I were to buy another aluminum radiator I'd go with the Mishimoto. It looks better overall than the Megan/jvtr that I have.
Gotta use the supra fan shroud too or you have to hack alot like I did, and you don't get the little fan.

I'm having no issues with the bottom grommets, but the mishimoto mk4 tt radiator I purchased will not fit with the factory lexus upper brackets AT ALL. I see a couple of pictures in this thread with modified brackets, but then I see a few other pictures with factory looking brackets, so I'm wondering what people did.
