let me know how it is with the engine back in.
I couldn't get the fans to fit with the engine there, the front turbo is in the way (more the turbo inlet pipe)
Other than that, the fit seems to be about the same as mine.

Hi Q.
Considering you seem to have had good success getting yours to fit, I suggest you contact Andrew at Scarles direct, to negotiate any partial refund to compensate for the incorrect fitment.
This applies to anyone wishing to keep the radiator they received from Scarles.
Jeremy (CANDEE) and I are looking to return ours and we'll let people know how we get on with shipping costs and refunds.

Kenneth, the OZVR4 peeps had to do some "trimming" of the OEM fan motor supports to get theirs to fit without any contact or rubbing. So doesn't surprise you'll need to 'adjust' things to get it all to work. Was always expected...........
Hope that helps.

Well the fans clear pretty close but they do clear. I will get pics for you up with engine in otherwise view my thread in engine forum re Christmas for my vr4
I may be happy to purchase a radiator off a club member for the original price minus a partial refund from scarles, as an alternative to a refind. will make it fit, as I am currently playing around with my front end at the moment anyway
Less a Driver of a VR4, more an owner of a pile of parts...
has anyone got a refund from scarles? as i plan to fit my radiator soon
hmm i tried getting a partial refund of 100 but they wouldnt do it without a quote and i havent had the time, ill get it put in and send them the bill
We got full refunds, so that might be the difference... We had no idea on how much it would cost to get them modded to fit, as that wasnt considered for us.Originally Posted by Adam.Findlay
did anyone ever get a fixed/corrected one? (from the new batch)
new batch not here yet from my recall fonecall a few weeks ago,,btw i can get them cheap if anyone want ok
