There are physical differences between the two, whether it's just core size and/or just the mounting points I'm not sure. But there definitely is a physical difference.

i know the fan mounts are different, not sure about what else


if you are looking for aftermarket.......search for the civic half size conversion thread

there is a write up for using the koyo half size radiator in the prelude.......it is plenty efficient for even turbo applications so you should be fine if you are worried about that......and it frees up a lot of space in the engine bay

the thing is, its like 4th and 5th gen exhaust systems.

you have to buy new fans and it will fit. its all h22 parts or all h23 parts. use h22 fans on the h22 radiator that will lock in. but you are spending money on a koyo/fluidyne, you can afford slim fans.

i know because i have both and installed both on my car.
