Default what radiator hoses for b18c engine?

ok well my hoses are looking pretty tough and are gonna need replacing, but what hoses fit? right now my are all rigged up to work. its like the stock gsr hose with a crx hose stuffed inside to make the diameter smaller. well i dont want to do that, i want to have the RIGHT hose for it.

the 90-93 integra is the right hose for the lower hose right? but what hose will be the right size for the upper? i dont want to modify the hose, i just want it to be the right hose and the right size. maybe a 92-93 gsr? but i dont know if the spout from that year gsr wasr larger then the crx one.

anyone? thanks.

Hose diameter is larger on b-series motors. If you want to do it right get the DA radiator. This will remove the ghettoness from your car. Just get a DA radiator hoses and make them fit. Have some fun with it.

Well, on my car I used the 92/93 USDM Acura GSR, I just cut off about 1.5inch, because it blend a little bit. It probably would have worked without it, but everyone recommended I cut it.

what about the diameter of the hose vs the diameter of the pat of the radiator where the hose connects to? is it the same and a nug fit? or is the hose too big? did you just clamp it down? please be more specific on the fitment.

The hose is too big for a snug fit. Use 2 firmy applied hose clamps, and never touch them again. I've never had a problem with mine.

A hose from a b16a wont fit a gsr... think about it, the water neck is in 2 different places. Use a da ratiator, and a gsr hose, yes you have to trim, but still looks stock.
