Apexi GT Spec Radiator

Well it seems the rotary gods are testing my faith. Turns out my radiator is leaking. I found a used Apex'i GT Spec radiator but I'm not sure of the install. It looks a little bigger then stock. Has anyone installed this radiator? How straight forward is it.

That is a VERY uncommon radiator. Most likely, being from Apexi, it will be a quality product, but the Japanese radiators new are typically CRAZY expensive.

If it's a little thicker than stock it will likely install like a Koyo. You WILL be doing some work to get it home and happy, but if it's a quality radiator, that will be the last you'll mess with it for a long time.

Yes it's the blue. You weren't kidding about being rare, I can't even find dimensions. Guess I'll just get it and install it. It's the cheapest one in good condition they have

I've had this rad in possession before, and it looked similar to stock. The Koyo and Fluidyne are larger in dimension I believe. I didn't get to use it, because it broke in the trunk of my car while transporting (NON FD) LOL. I do believe this would be a great fit for the HKS VMIC, because of it's dimension similarity to stock. It should be a good rad.
