del-sol would work..its half the size of your stock and instead of being 1 core like your stock the del-sol is 2 core and its half the size..they go for less then $60 bux.

both...but i reccomend if your going to stay with that setup for a long time get it new...but its all depends on you...if your going ballz out try to save money and get you either koyo radiator or fluidlyne radiators with flexifan...i have koyo radiator and flexfan and im loving it.not only it looks good but it defenetly keeps my engine cool as hell..like i said its up to you but dont buy them used or youll end up screwed.....

Ebay...since youre going to have to buy one anyways just get a 90-93 Integra one. It uses the same size hose outlets as a B16 (D series is smaller), that way you can just use stock DA hoses and clamps...if that matters to you.

just get stock, everyone says to upgrade to DA for the bigger inlets and outlets, and because it is dual core, but my hood still doesn't close properly, you have to bend one of the bottom mounts to get it to sit right, at least in a 91 crx si that is.

agreed. this is the best cooling bang for the buck. i bought mine a junkyard for $25 bucks and have had it for 2 years no leaks. unles you are boosting, this best way to go. IMO

any parts store should be able to get them, or order them online a bit cheaper.
88-91 Civic/CRX radiator.
I've got one just sitting around too.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...wItem

would this work on a b16 in 89 rex because it says this in the advertising


This is a radiator fan removed from a 88 honda crx. <U>It is in good condition but the upper mounts have been cut as seen in the pictures (BUT SHOULD BE ABLE TO USE WITH NO PROBLEMS)</U> Will fit 88-91 honda crx and civic


does that mean I have to get new mounts and if I do would I be better off buying a different one with mounts already?
