Nissan, but they're garbage- very little paint, poor welds.  Peter 
Schulz had his out after maybe 2 years, I think; cracked weld led to 
a leak...whereas the OEM usually lasts 10 or more (mine lasted 13 
before developing a pinhole leak at the bottom).

Modine many years ago built a nice, solid aluminum unit.  No more- 
plastic end-tanks and no extra connections for the aux radiator.
