Default Type R radiator in GSR

can you guys comfirm that this radiator is JDM ITR radiator? notice how the edges aren't as rounded as in the GSR's and it's not brown in color.

how can you tell? i mean what are the features on an R's radiator. i noticed my temp is cooler now also. wondering if it has anything to do with this radiator. as for JDM or not...just look at the throttle cable or something bracket bolted in the middle of the radiator. you got me???

yeah I see that in the pic now.. I had just referenced another RHD ITR pic before I saw your last post, and I see it in that pic, too.

Features? hmm.. well, if you're comparing the wider Integra radiator to a narrow and skinnier Civic radiator, I'd say increased cooling capacity.

Are you using the same thermostat from before?

Make sure the fan isn't running all the time. Is the engine idling higher?

Also run the heater full blast after the car has warmed up and see if you get hot air.
