Default Type-R Radiator vs. GSR radiator

are there any differences btwn these two radiators, looking to upgrade the EG cooling system. I noticed the Type-R Radiator doesnt have the SHOWA Aluminum badge..anyways if there any differences I'd like to know as I bought the Type-R one already..

Yes, its lighter. I believe like 3 lbs. Seen it somwhere on one of those Best Motoring Video. Hell, the shift linkage is alot lighter than the GSR. As well as the Starter. Just bit in pieces here and there.
