i didn't find any good so i made a custom full-size aluminum radiator that is placed more towards the front of the car, making more room for the turbo.

I ended up using a C&R custom sized rad that is EF height (shorter than EG ) and half the width. This will fit a bit better than the EG. Got it through Wil at Exospeed. Also left room for AC.

So will a PWR fit in the stock location without a FR X-member?

Any one have any pics of the Koyo? According to them, it's a EG rad with custom brackets.. I'm interested in the fit.

According to C&R, they don't make the EF radiator any more.. I will have to see if exospeed has anymore in stock.

Was this a full custom job or did it cross over from say some domestic application? Mind sharing the specs


This has been my nightmare for a while.. I've had a full size EF rad (big mistake) & an EG. Time for something that fits

I also picked up one of the Full-race radiators. I just welded some custom mounts to my traction bar. Works like a charm.

Can you eloborate? Which tracktion system etc..

I have a jim fab and it mounts pretty far back. I can't imagine it be any where near the radiator mount.

The big question is fitment.. Whats your setup, and how does this radiator mount?

Pics please!

Ill need to take some pics.. It was being ran in a turbo EG(Built and sleeved gsr motor with T4/T67 turbo).. In my CRX I had to make special mounts and weld them on to the crossmember since I dont have anything in front of the crossmember on my car..

Fitment is really good, I had to cut part of the hood since the radiator is taller than stock..

Its a full-race traction bar. The factory radiator mounts had to be cut off to fit the bar. I simply fabbed up some new mounts on top of the bar. It uses the factory top corner mount.
