Radiator replacement is extremely easy. Really it comes down to what you are eventually planning on doing with the car. Be sure you are fixing the problem, not just addressing the symptoms. I thought for sure I was just having radiator issues causing my cooling problems, but it turned out to be a failing head gasket that allowed the exhaust gasses into my radiator which then inturn raised the pressure thus cracking and spilling my fluids.
There are many camps as to what to get for an aftermarket radiator. Some prefer stock, or full metal stock replacement, while others like the aftermarket jobs. I went with a Koyo for its performance, looks and price. I've heard the Fluidyne is better on flow with having one less row than the Koyo, but to date I've had no issues with my Koyo. Especially after I went with an electric fan setup. If you do go with an aftermarket performance radiator, be aware that you may lose your fan shroud as not all of them will support bolting up your stock shroud. You could always make your own mounts for it, but as far as radiator fittment, they should all just drop right in if they are made for our cars. Check out Ebay or one of the MKIII Supra parts dealers. Summit Racing also has pretty good prices on them as well. I highly recommend Suprasport too as they have been great with customer support for the products they sell. (They only sell MKIII parts)
Good Luck!
