Is 00 civic Si radiator a perfect match in a 92-95 Si?

Like the topic says, just wondering if the radiator from 00 si will fit into my 92 si hatch with stock d16z6? Thanks. Let me know

No exactly, the Si radiator has wider B series neck. You'll have to stretch your hoses to fit. Perfect if you have a B series swap.

Why perfect?

They are Single Core Just like SOHC civics!

Probably not for anyone pushing *BIG* horsepower.

But for stock to mild setup it should be, and Honda seems to agree

So all the electrical and mounting hardware will be the same and I will only have to slightly strech the hoses? Will my engine show any check engine lights?

it shouldnt, the radiator should mount right in, with the exception of longer hoses, and maybe drill a new hole for the mounts, but other than that, it should be clear sailing.
