Rad suggestions

I have always wanted a fluidyne rad.
Now that I need a new rad it seems that fluidyne is no longer the rad of choice. Could someone suggest a similar or better rad?

I bought a Mishimoto radiator in the summer of 2009. It looks very nice and works to keep my engine cool. I bought a full size radiator for my '97 civic hatch and had to do some mods to make it fit but it fits. There was an issue with the radiator outlet and mishimoto fan shroud actually touching each other too. Otherwise, I like the Mishimotor radiator... the price was a lot lower than Fluidyne and Koyo too. If you want complete ease of installation, buy the direct replacement radiator for you car (half radiator).

JRP sells KOYO aluminum rads for civic. I bought mine after my stock rad blew up at the track. Koyo rad was about $400. Never gave me problems again.
