Can someone measure there lower radiator mounts? Mine measure about 21 inches apart center to center. I have 3 different radiators here that measure 22 inches.
Thanks Mike

Mike mine were off about 1/4" seems par for the course. I had to modify mine. I have heard the same from others as well.

Mine are off as well. Not sure if it's my aftermarket radiator or the subframe.

Since we are talking Radiators- Can someone point me a to a good Aluminum radiator (with fans)? I don't want to buy a "ebay" junk piece for the 818R.

The mishimoto kit that you see on ebay is actually very good.

MMFS-WRX-01P shroud with fans

MMRAD-WRX-01 radiator

they also have a 3 row but I think people were having 818 fitment issues with the thicker cores.

Koyo's are very nice too, but I do not think they make a fan shroud.

mine were off 1/4 to 1/2 but well within what the rubber mounts could deal with

+1 on the Mishimoto radiators.

I run one on my 2006 Mustang with good results after another buddy of mine (w/the same car model) had his Mishimoto on for a year with excellent results. Both of us track our cars regularly; my buddy actually runs enduros, so he's got that thing on track for a solid 4+ hours at a time. They're nicely made overall and fitment was precise. Hard to beat for the price.

Best,
