i the koyo racing radiator worth $312
or should i buy gt radiator for $149 (will this do for the 3sgte swap)

also i think i am getting red of my ac all-together which means i can loose the ac condensor right, and will i be able to use my heater and defrost and fan just not a/c

in its place i was planning on putting an oil cooler and transmission cooler, is this possible

I have no experience with the Koyo rad, sorry.

If you remove the AC completely, the heater and defrost will still work; they are separate systems. Just be sure to block off the hols in the plenum where the refrigerant lines used to go. Also, carry a rag with you if you live in a humid area. I find myself using my AC just about every time it rains just to clear the fog from the inside of my car's windshield.

You should be able to install and oil cooler, no problem. Same with transmission cooler if you will be running an auto trans. Manuals, however don't generally have coolers except on endurance or rally applications, and would take a little fabrication and an electric fluid pump to get working. Imo, best to not worry about it with a 5-speed.
