Just vary your search parameters and you will find lots of info. Don't just ask "what if" or "how about this" all the time!!

It's not exactly a drop-in replacement since it's 2" thick.
You can put it in the stock location, but certain pieces - such as the stock IC duct - above the Koyo won't fit exactly as they did with the stock 1" core.
You can easily modify the mounting points to not only have the Koyo sit a little lower in the stock location but also to allow everything to fit back in its normal place.
The Koyo made a big difference in my car. My heater used to blow very HOT when I had the stock radiator, and the car would get anemic in uphill stop-and-go traffic. I installed the Koyo, and my heater became a joke, bearly heating anything, even on full blast.
Someone with 14000+ posts in the link below said the stock rad is the way to go [for street driving] ...
I think that's weird.
Anyone who has actually installed the Koyo in their car would most likely tell you the results are *p r e t t y dramatic* to say the least.
The link below may be useful *before* you bolt up the Koyo and refill the coolant only to find the rest of your stuff won't fit back in place.
Hopefully the pics helpful. post #16.

both the koyo and fluidine are very good radiators and an upgrade nearly every rx7 should have at some point. Fluidine fits a little better, but if you found a good deal on a koyo then that will work just as well.
