why??????

Unless you just want it for looks, there is really no reason because:

1. The maxima cooling system is sufficient. I can't think of ever hearing about anyone overheating with the OEM setup.
2. The maxima OEM radiator is very lightweight. An aluminum one might actually weigh more than stock...

2) Koyo OEM replacement.
