If you don't have service manual yet....GET ONE. It will REALLY help with questions like this, and if you plan on doing a lot of work on your car it is invaluable.

Taking out the radiator isn't THAT bad, you have to take off the airbox and associated covers and take out the intercooler, and then take out the fan assembly. This can all be done in an hour or so pretty easy if you have done it before, allow yourself 2 hours if you haven't.
From there it is pretty straightforward. Remove the hoses and remove the nuts that hold the radiator in and voila! There you go.

you can find the Factory Service Manual from the 3rd gen FAQ stickie under "F"

or here for the lazy. :P https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generation-specific-1993-2002-16/94-fsms-available-download-449950/

has break apart illustrations for you to see what u need to remove to access what bolts.

like bajaman said, it is really easy. most of the time spend is removing other stuff just to get to it.
