Koyo/Fluidyne Rad. Questions. ALREADY SEARCHED
Ok I've just spent 2 hours searching and I didn't find the answers that I wanted.
I'm going to buy ether a Koyo or a Fluidyne, but I want my A/C condenser to still fit. I'm leaning more towards the Koyo. I know the Koyo needs more modification to fit, I've read that the Koyo cools better too.
In post #16 here rx7club.com/showthread.php?p=6561615#post6561615 showed how he fit his, but didn't say if the A/C fit. Also do they have the fitting fir the AST?
Any info would be great.
Thanks in advance

From what I've read on here, the Fluidyne fits much better than the Koyo, but even the Fluidyne may have minor fitment problems.
AC may need to be relocated, etc., for the Koyo. With the Fluidyne, there could be minor problems with interference with the OE or PFS air cleaner box.
Try searching for "fitment."

I put in a Fluidyne 10 years ago and had no fitment issues. My AC died with the PFC and Commander. I rarelly get above 180 F unless I really push the car. My guess is that does not matter which you install.

I fitted the Fluidyne four or more years ago. Fitment was not an issue at all, plug and play on all hoses and bolt ups. This is a quality radiator. I did lower the A/C condenser a 1/4-1/2 inch or so plus-minus using longer bolts and alum. tube spacers, this was to provide the same airspace gap as OEM .. Rad. not any issue with fit and alignment and fan shroud install. I did fit larger "Greddy" IC and custom ducting at same time, this did require a little alignment work due to very tight fit. Stock I/c would be no problem. I spent more time making baffles to stop air leakage around rad and gather intake air than on anything else .. and these gaps are their regardless of Rad OEM or otherwise.
