Anyone know where to find SVX radiator? Repair shop said they're unavailable anywhere. Car was towed home. Thanks.

There's a guy in BC who chimes in every time somebody is looking for parts. Do a search and you'll find him.
These guys in California are excellent. http://sspparts.com/search/1992/Suba...radi/675/jiiif

They have at least one rad for $125 USD. They have 12 SVXs at present.

I bought a rear sub-frame from them, it was mint.

There are four listed here. http://www.car-part.com/index.htm

and if you want a drop in all aluminum (for never breaking again) AMR Engineering, though they are a pain to deal with for most people.

IF you can modify the aluminum find a wrx radiator and cut and weld it to fit

Not recommended. They are out of stock once again and who knows when/if you would receive it.

you will need a radiator shop that doesn't mind custom work. they will ideally need to relocate the bottom mount pegs, and maybe relocate the top hose input. Though I think using a wrx top hose would work instead.
