Default OEM radiator for B18 N/A build

Guys, mine is a freshly built 1.8L GSR 12:1 CR setup. Also we have a slightly hotter climate around where i live. Anyway currently i have an OEM full size plastic top radiator in the car. And also have another similar brand new oem style full size radiator. I was thinking to use the new one in this car. So would these be sufficient for this setup? Or is an aluminum rad compulsory?

Unless you're road racing I'd say your okay with even a half sized radiator.

Mostly normal road use. But occasional drag racing

Keep the original OEM, and don't use the OEM "style" one.. You'll be fine
