Default Need New Radiator + Transmission Cooler for 97 Honda Civic EX D16Y8

I'm in need of a new Radiator and Transmission Cooler. I have an AT which was just rebuilt. I want to make this transmission last as long as possible. It had a junk yard transmission previously. So this is actually the 2nd time, having to get a new transmission.

I have a 1997 Honda Civic EX D16Y8, non v-tec.

I drive pretty hard on the car and need something to make my car last a lot longer.

I was thinking of the following Radiators.
C&R, Fluidyne, PWR, Koyo, Mishimoto

For a Transmission Cooler, I was thinking of the
B&M 70264

What else would I need so I don't mess up my engine or transmission. I may think of adding on some other modifications in the future.

I was thinking of putting a turbo but I realize my AT won't be able to handle anything over 200hp so I won't be doing that. I'll just get another car to make faster.

Help is needed I'm looking to get my radiator and transmission cooler soon so I can install them.

Thanks

radiator ive seen people have problems with misimoto radiators but many people like them. i personally have a koyo and love mine and have had no problems with mine for years.best trans cooler i had was one that had a built in fan on it. when it does start slipping ive found the lucus non slip to work great.

FYI: If you have a D16Y8 you do have VTEC.

Ohh i checked my engine it didnt say vtec. I thought there was a vtec and nonvtec one.

I notice the fluidyne radiator but i realized they didnt have one for an AT.

Whats the difference between a 2 row and 3 row radiator?

Ok.

I'm thinking of getting
Mishimoto X-Line Honda 92-00 Honda Civic
and
B&M 70264

Would this fit in my car?
