Denso/Showa radiators
I'm looking for a Koyo radiator for my 94 JDM Integra. The stock radiator is from Denso but surfing around I see that there are two different designs (?) sold for 94 - 01 integras. One is Showa and the other is Denso. Whats the difference?
Will a showa radiator for a 94 - 01 Teg fit in my car?

Re: Denso/Showa radiators (Fink2iCe)
Both ones will fit, the only difference is the Condenser fan shroud, I believe one of the tabs will not mount properly if you get the wrong one for your car.
I don't really remember, but I think it was Denso was for LS, RS, GS and the Showa came on the GS-Rs.
Only thing about the Fat Koyo Radiators are they are huge, and hard to install with the stock fans, you might want to consider getting the low pro fans if you want the thicker one, otherwise opt for a OEM replacement.
I needed to shave the Fan Shrouds down to get them to fit, also, a problem with be the fan shroud will rub on the A/C lines and they will eventually break, this is what happened to me.
If I could do it again, I would make sure I had the low pro fans like FAL to begin with.
