Default Civic Radiator in Integra With A/C.. what to do with the A/C heat exhanger

Okay the titles explains most of it.. I've searched the topic and this part has never been answered in the numerous "Civic radiator in Integra Posts"

I have a 95 GSR and i want more room in my engine bay.. i am going to be puttin an aftermarket PWR half style Civic Rad. in my integra and i was wondering what to do with the A/C heat exchanger since it mounts directly to the stock integra radiator.. has anyone done this? if so, your solution would be greatly appreciated.. and pics would be helpful if they are available..

Also.. what did you do about the fans? I can see mounting the one in front of the radiator, but then what did you do for the one that cools the A/C and how did you mount that? Pics appreciated..

Thanks,
Dan

Don't have a GSR shell but I'll tell ya what I did.

I have GSR in Civic. I used a fluidyne civic style radiator. with slim fan.

For ac side, I would get a Civic AC condensor also IF I were you. I used my stock a/c condensor and mounted a slim fan to it also. I used the stock flange that held on the fan on AC side and modified it (bent) to hold on the new slim fan and ac condensor. On civic the fan has the mounts on ac side so ac condensor was haning loose until I used the stock flange and "modified" it.

Umm.. I'm not sure what you're talking about because there's no "A/C thingy" that mounts to the stock radiator in an integra..? You should be able to rip out your stock radiator w/o any problems. If you're referring to the condenser, that mounts to the core support, not the radiator.

Get a civic condensor. Fits beisde the civic half size radiator. Put slim fan on both. OR put slim fans on other side and use as a pusher style fan.
