Default Proper Radiator Hoses for a 95 DX/ Type R Swap?

Hey all, just trying to find out which are the proper radiator hoses for me? Still using the D series radiator. Type R is JDM if that matters.

Thanks in advance!

b18c, If I recall correctly, the bends in the usdm type R radiator hoses dont match those of the civic. Someone told me to use the 92-95 Del Sol hoses made for those with b16's. Plausible?

^^Never heard of that but I could be wrong someone else could correct me. You could use like GSR ones or something but I always thought you use the ones from the motor.

You need to use adjustable gear style hose clamps when using B-series rad hoses on a D-series rad.
