Will Evo VI radiator fit to Evo VIII ?

I want to relocate my upper radiator hose b/c I am going to build upper mount turbo kit for this car but I don't want to modify a brand new koyo radiator

Plus it do not looks nice after you welded aluminum + it will cost time and money to modify it

And I see that Koyo radiator for EVO IV-V-VI look similar to EVO VII-VIII-IX version




I draw lines for comparison since drawings are out of scale [red lines do not match which is the length of the radiators do not match even if Evo IV-V-VI radiator only 10 MM longer]



My bet It will fit maybe I need to build extra lower hanger or upper radiator brackets

I guess following car is quipped with Evo IV-V-VI Koyo Radiator since it comes with Koyo logo on it + it has got large upper tank [Check the orange line] plus radiator cap is placed left side of the radiator





After a quick search [Yes I searched the forum first, I found this on google] I find this post;

For the record;

I. Evo VII-VIII-IX Radiator



II. Evo IV-VI-VI Radiator

I have an evo VI style in my 03. It will fit but with some minor moding to the lower mount area and fan mounting.
