I replaced the aging radiator in December. It went smoothly, everything came apart and went back together as the Toyota Gods intended.
Pros: went together smoothly
Vehicle:
Lexus
EDIT: SOLVED - noticed no leakage around thermostat, coolant ball, all belts were dry, and upper radiator dry. In the end it was the radiator.
Pros: leakage solved
Cons: radiator leaked

Best one to get is the Nissens 68001A. I just put one in my 2000 9-5. For some reason Rock Auto only lists it as fitting 2001 but it will fit a 1999-2001.
Pros: best quality, good fitment

I have heard mixed reviews on the Mishimoto
Cons: mixed reviews
I recently installed a Koyo radiator in my s13 to replace the stock one that had been leaking. I bled the air thoroughly when I filled the system with a spill free funnel and the bleed screw on the water outlet. Even after doing this, my car started overheating intermittently after driving around for a bit. When I stopped, the upper hose and radiator were very hot but the lower hose was cool to the touch. I tried to bleed more air out of it with the spill free funnel, but no air came out, and the water in the funnel started getting hot and overflowing. I pulled the thermostat to verify if it's functioning properly and it is, also it's the type that will stay open in the event of failure. This might seem silly, but I feel like the thermostat is closing and opening because the radiator is cooling too well.
Pros: cooling too well
Cons: overheating intermittently, lower hose cool
Vehicle:
Nissan
