The tegs have the condensor mounted behind the rad but you can't do this with civics because tegs have a slightly longer front end allowing them to clear the exhaust manifold. If you want to keep AC, your best bet will be to use a OEM dual core (del sol VTEC) or better yet, a fluidyne.

no reason to shell out that kind of money for AC (Fluidyne). Go to your local AutoZone, Oreilly and get a Del Sol SI, Civic Coupe EX dual core rad, they're aluminum and only 100 dollars.

Of course he doesn't NEED the AC, but he wants it.

Re: AC with GSR radiator (sirhatchalot5)
The integra has the condensor, it's just placed in front of the radiator. The lines are totally different. Do like they said above, buy a dual core radiator for your civic. I believe the LX models also have dual cores.

you make no sense. it dont slow you down. and it only slows if you have the AC turned on. the compressor has something like a flywheel. id like to keep the Ac though.. i went 2 summers w/o it. this is my 3rd gsr swap and 3rd civic too...not a newb
