smaller radiator?

[CRXer]

hey guys, my car currently has a radiator that runs from one end of my headlights to the other. wondering if they would be any problems with swapping it with a smaller radiator from say a civic.

Think the EG's are a little taller(which includes EG crx),so u might have to tilt it back to clear the hood.

hey man heres the link about coolant temps - http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=38675

Somewhere in there it shows how there was a temp change of 10 degrees but the standard temp gauge remained the same

interesting read man.

how did you end up fixin the problem??

[MR-VTEC]

from memory the cap i was using was slightly leaking and i also had some air in the system. I replaced the cap and re-bled the system and it fixed the problem

would EK one fit?

[MR-VTEC]

if its possible just measure the one you have on your car now and ask the traders on here if they know the dimensions of the half size ones they have for sale and compare

would imagine the EK would be as tall as the EG.

cmon civic boyz.........

weq is helping with out with a rad from his eg. hopefully it'll fit.. but damn it's thin!

[JasonGilholme]

hopefully it'll fit.. but damn it's thin!

Is it a JDM rad?

The one i got on a teg cut was alot thinner than the AUDM's,apparently they run em thinner in colder parts of Japan or something like that.
