My radiator blew and i got a new one. Anyone got any advice on swappin' it? Just wanna make sure i do it right... step by step. It cant be that hard...

 

Dont have a GSR, but my LS was pretty easy to do, had to do it a couple of times now (metal tank was bad from new) I know the GSR is a bit different, but the hardest part for me was getting it out with the AC line right above it, but it still was not that hard.

Get a Helms book, that will give you a lot of good info.

 

I changed the radiator in my GSR and replaced it with a Del Sol VTEC radiator for some more engine bay space. The swap was very simple, took under an hour.

 

Check out this article on TI: http://www.team-integra.net/se...D=763

It's fairly easy changing out the radiator. While you're at it, you might want to change out your thermostat too. It's not required, but it's good preventative maintenance.

 

just pick up a repair manual and follow the directions, thats what i did and everything went fine, it was pretty easy in fact....may want to inspect your hoses to make sure you dont need to change any of those while youre at it.

 

Yep, TI is the way to go. Switching out the radiator is very easy. I figured it out on my own before I knew anything about cars, so that should show you how simple it is. Only thing to be careful about is that you don't crush any of the delicate veins on the radiator when installing it.

 

Its cake. Drain it, remove the hoses, unbolt the straps, pull it out and reverse for installation.

 

Not to thread-jack, but will a civic radiator work in a GSR being that the civic rad. is half the size? Won't it overheat? I plan to lose my a/c so it wont be a problem. My current radiator has a serious leak, and I can get a civic radiator off a friend. TIA

 

Thanks guys, i got a manual and am ready to install.... just wanted to extra advice to be sure...

 

The install is pretty simple, the only thing I found a bit@ched to remove were the two fan switches. They were TIGHT as hell. I spent quite a while trying to removing the switches but after that, it was straight forward.

 

dont even worry about it, it's very easy, straight forward type of job, doubt u can make a mistake, just make sure u put the hoses in correctly and secure it good.

Yes Civic radiators can be mounted into Integra engine bays.

 

swapping radiators should take you 30 minutes. Just unbolt the two top i=hinges that hold the radiator to the frame, disconnect the wires, remove the hoses, and pull it out !

 

piece of cake just follow the instructions that come with the new radiator and you should be fine, i had the some problem i just followed the the manual... pretty easy job
