I believe Blackworks rebrands/sells universal parts. While this rad may fit, it may require modification.

A buddy of mine bought blackworks racing coilovers for his Del Sol and the coilovers required modification to install.

Why not stay OEM?

You might as well just get OE radiator and be done with it.

Stock does not break easy. Stock rads are very reliable ---- as long as you know how to remove it "properly"

Just because its "OMG Aluminum" does not mean its better than stock. you have a lot to learn.
