I think you'll find the Nismo and Koyo to be higher quality.

The Modine (P/N 1R2251) has brass tanks with copper-brass core.  If I'm
mistaken, it's also painted with black paint.  It's a double row radiator
(a plus).

It will be the same size as the Koyo and Nismo.  The Nismo has a different
pitch however.

I'd personally keep looking around for a double row aluminum double row
radiator with plastic tanks (like stock).  I know they are out there and
the price should be similar.
