I spent hours looking for a rad, found a good KLZE 326 / Protege V6 rad. Note the width and height are reversed on this web site. I am thinking this Audi rad will fit "in" the rad support. (not behind it or in front of it)

rad height for the scirocco rad is a little too high. anything higher than 14" wont fit in the rad support91 protege gt. dropzone mx3 springs, mx3 crossmember, ractive front and rear strut braces, rear lower mx3 brace, 4 wheel disc brakes, corksport ss brake and clutch lines,kvr front pads, ractive cai,ram air hood scoop, modified front bumper, shaved ant and rear trunk lock, fubu ant, short shifter, corksport bronzeoil shifter bushings,92 glass sunroof and tail lights, mx3 center console, autometer gauges (volt and oil pressure) cluster needles painted to match, sound system, 17 inch eagle alloy 193 with 205 40 17 rubber. klze is ALIVE BABY!! . http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2394656http://www.toprotege.com/forums/show...hlight=project[url]

Well guys I havent really updated this too much lately. That would be because I havent had any time to get anything done. Plus I have been dealing with distributor problems that have been making me trace wires here and there. Anyways the pain in the ass is done and she is running again.
Today I did a heck of a lot of sanding to the point that I am sick of sanding lol. got a few pics to post. One is of my brake booster hose, another is the oil pressure switch setup. autometer and the awesome factory idiot light and a few of how its sitting at the moment. also with the fender hanging so you guys can see how she is sitting height wise. ok on to the pics. enjoy people.91 protege gt. dropzone mx3 springs, mx3 crossmember, ractive front and rear strut braces, rear lower mx3 brace, 4 wheel disc brakes, corksport ss brake and clutch lines,kvr front pads, ractive cai,ram air hood scoop, modified front bumper, shaved ant and rear trunk lock, fubu ant, short shifter, corksport bronzeoil shifter bushings,92 glass sunroof and tail lights, mx3 center console, autometer gauges (volt and oil pressure) cluster needles painted to match, sound system, 17 inch eagle alloy 193 with 205 40 17 rubber. klze is ALIVE BABY!! . http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2394656http://www.toprotege.com/forums/show...hlight=project[url]

Edit - what I noticed is that the 2 main obstacles are the center hood latch support bracket, and the headlight plastic buckets (have those handy when you mock up the rad, they take up more room than you think)...on mine, I just scrapped the center hood latch support - there was just no freaking way to make an 'ok' rad (imho) fit with it in place - I haven't checked any of the honda stuff, but since I live in triple digit temp. land, to me more cooling = teh win. With the headlight buckets, I trimmed them as much as possible while still allowing the upper grille to still be able to latch on.
Looking forward to seeing how you solve the space issue, it's no easy feat.
For the engine rocking problems, don't screw around, AWR mounts and be done with it.

well i think im going to get a custom rad made up. Im going to try something a little different with mine. today i went to my local home depot and got some supplies. Im going to make my rad out of wood, when i get it the way i want im going to take it to my local rad guys and get them to make me a rad using my wooden one as a template. I will post up pics maybe tomorrow of it depending on what i get done. Oh and I think im going to take your advice dan and just get some awr mounts to be on the safe size91 protege gt. dropzone mx3 springs, mx3 crossmember, ractive front and rear strut braces, rear lower mx3 brace, 4 wheel disc brakes, corksport ss brake and clutch lines,kvr front pads, ractive cai,ram air hood scoop, modified front bumper, shaved ant and rear trunk lock, fubu ant, short shifter, corksport bronzeoil shifter bushings,92 glass sunroof and tail lights, mx3 center console, autometer gauges (volt and oil pressure) cluster needles painted to match, sound system, 17 inch eagle alloy 193 with 205 40 17 rubber. klze is ALIVE BABY!! . http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2394656http://www.toprotege.com/forums/show...hlight=project[url]
