I used to have a Koyo Racing Radiator in my celica after the old one started leaking and all I have to say is it is a very well made radiator. I definitely recommend it if you're looking for expanded cooling capacity.

Development is under way in Japan as we speak. So they should be available fairly soon. Thanks for the test car offers. Will let you all know as soon as any new news is available.

Thanks everybody!

this is an issue that must be addressed properly and efficiently for these cars to start hitting the tracks with any decent functionality for the end user. Sure a race team can fab up an engine bay to use a suitable rad but fact is most people don't have the ability or the need to do this. Two things that I see people neglect almost all the time when increasing the performance of a car are it's traction and cooling. Cooling definately being the more neglected of the two. This community could use more quality and functional parts instead of all the ricer products and companies popping up left and right. KOYO makes an incredible radiator and i'm looking forward to it.

I'ts not that we have neglected cooling efficiency in the tCs. It's that we haven't gotten to the point were the mayority of the people need new radiators. Our cooling seems to be up to par in performance for now.

couldnt have said it better myself...good call thats the truth, cooling=power just like turbo cars love intercoolers... heat is the enemy for power....id spend the cash on it then try to sell the stock one to someone that hit somethin or such even if i get 50 bills...i say do it up

At the very least, nearly all F/I tC should be using a better radiator. I have a N/A tC and would love to have this radiator.

it will probably be in the $300-500 mark. Hopefully less, but I am looking around for some of the performance ones on their site and the Toyota section is all $349 on sale-$549

we'll see what goes down, if it ever does!
