Get a 92-93 GSR radiator, not a 94+. All the 90-93 DA radiators should be dual core, full width, and the right hieght for an EF. You might have to make mounts for the bottom, but the tops will fit.

As for what you have now, if it won't fit when leaning it & leaving 1.5" for a slim fan, it won't fit at all w/o a very low traction bar.
