Has anybody ever tried to run a half-size, dual core radiator in a 5S? My fans went, and I'm pondering if it's worth it to do the conversion, since the previous owner ran plain tap water. Our water is drinkable so it's not as dirty as in other places, but it still got rust.
I'm interested to see how you got it installed. -------------------- 1993 Celica GT Coupe - sold

if your using an original manifold then NO you will not have clearance issues
my custom manifold mounts my turbo lower and further forward than stock and i was still able to fit a full size 2 core radiator with the original non-slim fans - Core size (mm): W625*H348*T50 - Overall size (mm): W664*H442*T64 -------------------- Mike W

You think I'll have no clearance issues? EDIT: You mind sharing a pic of your setup?
