mk4 fits perfect. I bought a Haste radiator not too long ago. Its cheaper than Koyo and its 3 row vs 2.
But if your car is automatic you have to buy an oil cooler since none of the aftermarket ones provide this like oem

incorrect...

see this thread i made w/pics...http://www.clubna-t.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2633 (modification is required to have a 93-98 SUPRA TT radiator fit without having bending top brackets. Also to reuse the SC300 fan shroud modification is a must.)

I paid $330 shipped on ebay from this seller : advanation

I'm using electric fans , but as ridox mentioned in his write up I'm sure you will have to do some mods for the shroud/batt tray to fit since its even thicker than the koyo.
