    well ive got a 91' Excell radiator running mine .... 2 x 10" thermos.

    not a prob in the world with it. has a thermo switch provision in the bottom tank which i
    just picked a tridon switch with the right thread and temp range for a 1GGTE.

    Before 1G ... guage used to sit just below 1st line on my std guage. Now exactly the same ... thermos kick in just before i nudge the line.

    x2 here. works a treat on a 1jz corona. Heaps better at cooling it than the jzx81 chaser one in their previously. Although unsure of condition of that one. (then again unsure of condition of x2 one either)

    Pick a part has a flat rate of $68 per radiator, but be warned the fans are ~$40 a piece. I personally left them the aircon fan and took the two speed one only. I might go and find another two speed fan later if I need it.

    it was closing time at the pick and payless where I was and got mine for $50 with the two fans attached. Mind you they won't fit my application so only going to get kicked around the garage.
