take the chunky big fan off, and wire in a slim line one
remote fan is 100% worth it.

1.6 gsi rad is the best bout £36 from autovaux! diesel one would fit but you would need to custon some pipes as the inlet on the drivers side is at the bottom not the top!

1l fans work well as the shape misses the manifod and gives you a bit more room
