   Can someone give me a link to the exact rad I need for my mk2 VTR? How much do the Nissens Rads usually go for? Thanks

    Heres the thread i got that link from -
    
    http://www.saxperience.com/forum/sho...hlight=nissens
    
    Whoever made the thread was asking if it would fit a 90bhp mk2 and it will fit that.
    
    Don't know if it will fit a 98bhp MK2 though

    98bhp vtr uses the 106 gti/ vts full width radiator. I got my gti one from 106parts and its spot on
    
    Early vtr's use the smaller one.

    would the bigger rad fit the mk1 and would it cool it better?

    As far as im aware they fit but you have to cut down the lower coolant hose. not 100% on this though so dont just take my word for it lol
    
    And yes the do cool better being aluminum.

    bigger rad will fit any saxo. need to make sure you get the right age as the early ones have a hole in them which the 98bhp vtr doesnt have (its for a sensor)

    Says uprated performance. Whereas the other one was only standard replacement.

    well then, assuming they all come with a blanking plug any rad for any saxo/ 106 will fit. i'd be going for the bigger rad, and no you wont have to use another fan
