Did a search and found this

Mention of Koyo & Moshimoto
I think these are brands that I have heard of before.
I wouldn't mind getting a nice radiator and getting a separate tranny cooler but I don't know what to buy and where to find the best parts for the best prices. Any suggestions?

i'm an estimator at a body shop so i deal with a lot of aftermarket radiators and condensers because insurance companies wont spend their money on a new one....EVER unless their insured's policy states OEM only. with that said, they mainly look for one thing with aftermarket radiators: warranty. Aftermarket radiators are pretty cheap in price generally so just make sure u have warranty on the product before anything.
i know that's not the answer you were looking for but i hope its still useful. haha.
and if u specific questions, call 1-800-RADIATOR. we get some of our radiators from them...they're very knowledgable.

^^ this is what i was looking into because I might be looking into boost and a manual tranny swap if I don't sell.
I was looking at tokensolutions site since he's a member at my.is
What ebay seller did you buy through, do you remember or can you look in your records to find the sellers username?
You bought the radiator and tranny cooler as a package deal through the same retailer or separately?

the radiator and trans cooler i got separate. the cooler i got from Summit Racing. they have all kinds of cooler, different brands, sizes and even combo coolers where you can have a trans and oil cooler in one unit (of course separate tanks)
size of the cooler is important because as you start adding stuff the engine bay get crowded fast. i have one cooler in the passenger side wheel well just behind the fog light
heres a good cooler. thin so you can fit maybe between the IC and AC unit or between the AC and Radiator
