Default the use of a bigger radiator

I haven't had any overheating problems as of yet but I was just curious what everybody has gone through as far as cooling issues. right now I am using the stock cx radiator and fan with the a/c fan but no condensor or a/c. I'm running a B16 in a 92 cx with a Drag 3. I was thinking about getting a C&R because they are pretty cheap and they come with a fan. lend me your cooling knowledge!!

I would say if you're not having any cooling problems, use the money elsewhere to upgrade something!!

I think you'd only really need the C&R if you wanted to keep your a/c or you wanted to autocross with that setup. If you really want to upgrade your radiator look into a teg' full row radiator or a vtec del sol radiator (2x as thick as stock civ radiator) and both are much cheaper than C&R's or fluidyne's.

My friend got an aftermarket fan with a stronger motor and it cooled his engine nice. When he upgrade his raditor it didnt cool it down as well as the stock one did.
