Get a Civic half-size radiator. You can grab a stock one very cheap brand new, at a junkyard, or here on the classifieds, although I would recommend something along the lines of a PWR Civic radiator as they are dual core and have awesome cooling, its equivalent to a full-size stocker that is single core. If going aftermarket, Fluidyne and Koyo are also great brands, check the sponsors section here on H-T for some great deals

Its a eg ('93) civic hatch ls/turbo w/equal length manifold.T3/t4 w/3" downpipe.I'm in the 275 hp range and it's daily driven.Runs 180 even at the strip.The delsol radiator is the same dimensions as the civic,but the civic is a single core.

All Civic radiators from 92-95 (at least) are "half size", so if you're looking for that term exactly you're going to be disappointed. Just get a Fluidyne or PWR 92-95 Civic radiator and call it a day.

And yes, they're expensive, but if you want a fast car that works correctly you should know better than to expect otherwise

I just ordered a PWR from Full-Race, it should be here thursday.

If you want my old stock civic halfcore, just come pick it up FREE!

It's out of a 99 civic SI, I'm in Killeen TX / FT Hood

Nothing wrong with it, worked fine with the numbersw in my sig

It would be kinda hard to get pics, as it's still in the car until my new one gets here

I run the Fluidyne half size, no heat problems though I might add a Mugen Thermostat and thermo switch and a cap soon as I get up to the 215 area and my car feels sluggish, running a b18bturbo fan (which in my opinion does the trick, but not as strong as more expensive fans). Here is my Fluidyne on my DC2

When you install it, make sure it is all the way against the passenger headlight or it will look like this, no room fo dump tube... I moved it 1 inch left from this pic, I removed my AC but the final position will look like the above picture, you pull probably have to mount the fan on the bumper side of the radiator.
