Fluidyne Aluminum Radiator for Lexus SC300

Does anyone have one on their car?

This one (under "cooling components" section):

http://www.mvpmotorsports.com/merchant/lex_sc300.shtml#

It says it's "plug and play" with the SC300. I am curious if anyone has one on their SC. I would love to see some installed pics or any type of feedback about the product. Kinda pricey but it looks nice.

Nice! Thanks for sharing. Didn't even realize you had that one and I must've seen your engine bay at least a few times.

I have Electric fans but my friend Teelex has his OEM fan shroud with his Fluidyne, so I would say yes.

I don't see why not.

Read the description though. If your SC400 is automatic you need to have a different cooler on it.

What other options do people generally go with for an aftermarket radiator, and still using the GE configuration? Mishimoto?

The tabs on my stock rad shroud are broken off so I fear that I may need to switch to possibly IS300 fans or shell out the money for a new shroud. Or fab something on each side of the shroud to hold it.
