still running the fully, but i have a half size im going to throw in for my next setup (different exhaust manifold and larger turbo)

it shouldn't be a problem to weld on a bracket to support the rad when needed.

as fas as i know the DA uses a completly different style for mounting... it uses horizontal holes (like the stock cross member) not vertical ones (like the tow hooks)

Yeah if I angle the brackets I can get 2 of the 3 holes to line up.

Oh so these brackets mount to the tow hook location? Interesting. If you were to run a half sized radiator would it have to tilt forward or back at all? Or will it drop down in front/behind the bars and allow you to fab brackets. If thats the case im highly interested. I need to run a half rad but I am in no mood to make it african as ---- and just sit it in behind my radiator support.

I had to gangster lean the ---- out of my 1/2 rad to get it to fit in my crx. I didnt want it to be lower than my trac bar so I had to tilt it a bunch.

Did you put brackets that come off of it that bolt to the sub frame?
