need to replace my radiator...i drive a 94 rs no ac...place i called asked if my radiator is ND or SHOWA...apparently honda has different suppliers for radiators...can anybody tell me how to tell which is which...it doesn't say anywhere on my radiator...please help

tia

 

showa would have big aluminum sticker on it. about 6" right of radiator cap.

nippon denso, not sure, i think they have no sticker on top, just raised black letters. i dont really thing it matters that much man,

 

make sure to get a metal radiator.

 

it does matter..."they drop in and the hoses line up, but the fan shrouds won't bolt-up"

it says ND on on my rad cap but nowhere on the radiator...

aren't all rads metal?

How much is the Dealer going to charge you for a new radiator?

 

radiator shop for metal 400 bucks

 

get an aftermarket radiator prolly be cheaper

i got a fluyidine for 175 from groupbuycenter a few years ago

hah, 175 for a fluidyne? even a few years ago that seems awefully cheap. I'm going to order a full aluminum radiator off Earl, PWR brand. for 335 shipped i believe.

 

anyways...back on topic...showa vs nd...anybody have pics?

 

stock is stock.....if u call a regular parts store they are like 150 and they do nt ask any questions.....the inlets are same dosent matter.

 

i know that the inlets are the same but the fan shrowding isn't...

can anybody else throw me a couple cents?
