Over the weekend I noticed some fairly high coolant temps while towing. I think the highest I saw was 230*F which is almost 40*F higher than I am used to seeing with my previous 4Runner. I used this as an excuse to mentally justify buying the Koyo radiator (VH010665N) and Koyo radiator cap (SK-C13). I shopped around on the interwebs and found that Sparktec Motorsports had the cheapest total price for the two at $417. I paid via paypal, but never received an email or invoice directly from Sparktec Motorsports.

I went home today for lunch with every intention of contacting them today about my order status when I discovered my order had been delivered. The radiator box was beaten and open, but upon further inspection the radiator didn't have a scratch on it! I brought it into work to store until I'm ready to install it. I also bought an oem thermostat and gasket that should be here later today or tomorrow. I still need to go by the Toyota dealership next door to get a few gallons of Toyota red coolant to mix with distilled water. I'm debating on replacing the fan clutch with an Aisin one just because I'm there already. I've got a new oem heater water valve assembly to put on as well.
