Those guys out there with boosted ta22's, is there a better radiator for us, the one in mine is starting to leak and i would like a new one b4 the new eng goes in,
is there other radiators out off other cars that pretty much just slot straight in, perferiably a 3 core or better

go down to your local radiator shop they should have a triple core that will replace your standard core, it cost around $350

Head to a good wrecker who wrecks mainly newer stuff, take your old rad, and have a dig through the pile to find something good - should be able to. Doubt it would fit, but Camry diesel radiators aren't too bad.

TA22's have a tiny radiator... there's not much chance of fitting a Commonwhore radiator in there.

I have a modified three core torana radiator in my '22. fit's just between the headlights and has two 10" thermo's on it. I think it's the best fit ever.
