Default EG Radiator swap

Has anyone used a CTR radiator in an EG hatchback? No, I don't care about the whole JDM thing... it just turns out that I can get one cheaper than a Del Sol or Integra radiator...

I'm taking out the AC so I know it'll fit... just wondering how much trouble it's gonna be.

thanks.

That's pretty-much what I'm asking. I feel like a half-width del sol one will provide enough cooling for my application. I think I'd rather put the money towards an oil cooler should it become a problem. I was just wondering if anyone actually knew waht the CTR radiator was like. Unfortunately, I can't see one ahead of time. Like I said though, I can get one cheaper than a Del Sol...

anyway, thanks

DelSol- half length, dual core
Civic automatic- half length, dual core
93- Integra- full length, dual core
94+ Integra- full length, single core
CTR- ? My guess would be half length, dual core.

The half length, dual core radiators actually cool very well. I have a 93 Integra radiator in my EG now, it's a little......overkill. I'll prob be getting an automatic Civc radiator soon.

I would vote for the Sol VTEC radiator... it has the correct inlet sizes for a B-Series motor. The Auto Civic Rad has the smaller D-Series inlets.
