Default EG Radiator Question

I've searched and found out the Dual Core Del Sol radiator is the best for my EG, but i found topics about the EG radiator in the CRX. Now, my question is, would the CRX radiators fit into the EG engine bay also without refitting the mounts or buying kits? I need a fast fix. Thanks.

what about the holes on the bottom where the tranny would hook up? do you have to clos ethose off or not really?

i think some people were postin in a recent topic saying you can use it for an oil cooler (others didnt recommend it)

but hey, let me know if you are interested. (comes w/ fan )

I'm not sure about those oil lines, are you referring to the crx radiator into the Eg? Anyways, how much do you want for that radiator, because i got a guy on HT that has a Si rad for 25 bucks. Let me know.

on the bottom there are a few places for hoses to hook up, originally for transmission fluid. it acted as a transmission fluid cooler, but i wasnt sure if it held use in a manual car. it came off a front clip i got.

are you talking about your duel core radiator? Because the Si doesn't have this. This might be something to do with the automatic trans.

Yeah i know the Eg into the Crx isn't a direct bolt in. I think i read that you'd have to get a kit or re-weld some spots to make it fit. I'm not sure about the Crx into the EG though, that's why i'm asking.

The bottom two inlet/outlets have a seperate resevoir than the rest of the radiator, right?

Just wondering if I am going to have to loop it or if I can just leave it.

yeah i got a dual core, and those two holes are just sitting there, i never plugged them up becuase its a separate holdint tank and itsn't being used unless you hook it up to your AUTO tranny. But i got manual so it doesn't matter.
