a dual pass radiator would be best so you dont have a problem routing your outlet hose around your fans and also you will have more clearance from the floor.

ok this is the rad i was going to get. at first i was going to go front mount but have ghange my mind and want to do this. so would this rad fit? and i do think its a apexi, they dont make them anymore, its about $350nz ($170us)

hows it going man had a chance to price the radiator up 2day
to build the alloy radiator with a 57mm core is $880inc gst
and 40mm core is $860inc gst (nz dollars) about $550us

the koyo radiator is 53mm thick I dont know what kinda extra room there is
in the batman for a thicker rad.. the tanks will be around 77~80mm thickness

so just dep if there is room

cheers dude

That's what I was thinking. I don't think Apexi makes/sells a V-mount IC

The only vmounts apexi made was for their D1 car, and calvin wans drift car. Even the red FD he slammed into the wall in 2004. HAHA!
