showa makes radiators and condensers for honda. Denso makes comresssors, dryers and such for honda. Is the koyo a direct replacement? How many rows?

I hear Koyo is just as bad. Time to grab you a pair of slim fans.

Oh, Showa and denso radiators........They're pretty much 2 different companies that supplied radiators to Honda, no difference in performance. Only thing I've noticed is the radiator fan shrouds mount up differently between the two makers. AC fan fits fine on both, just not the radiator fan.

I think others have shaved down the shrouds but if you want that Koyo Rad, its not much more to get slim fans.

You should be fine, unless your rad. support has been hit and pushed inwards.

I bought a Koyo and the difference in denso and showa is if you have a DC2 or DC4 I belive. If Im not mistaken the radiator mounts are different and I know that the fan mounts are different.
Easy way to find if you need to know which one to buy is if you still have your factory rad. it should say if its a denso or showa.
