Get the 92-95 civic style 1/2 radiator with a slim fan..You can get a new radiator off ebay for like 20-30 with a warranty and slim flans are pretty cheap to..And now to put it in your car since the radiator is taller you can either tilt it back..or trim some of the crossmember so it sits lower and just make custom upper brackets with some metal or or just zip tie it..

Or if you got the $$$ you can run something like the full-race setup..
