Default Fluidyne Integra Radiator in a Civic?

I have a 92 CX Civic with a 95 GSR engine and A/C. Can I fit a Fluidyne radiator that is made for the Integra. How about if I remove the A/C?
Thanks
Jay

people make small brakcets to help hold up the longer integra radiator in civic's.

you can make them yourself, but i believe del sol vtec radiators bolt right in.

i'm not exactly sure on this.


if you ditch the ac you can just get the fluidyne made for the civic which is half the size of the integra radiator it'll be fine for cooling purposes.

The car will be used for Road Racing and the temperature here is very hot. Thats why I want the best possible.

Default What's up?

If you want to install the Integra radiator, you will most likely have to remove A/C condensor. With a road racing car, that probably won't be a big issue though. You will also have to modify the lower mounts for the raditor. You can simply use the far left mount and simply attach a piece of steel to the bottom of the frame rail for the other side of the radiator and fabricate a top brace or cut the other mount off and re-weld it on the other side.

I know of people installing the normal OE Integra radiator in '92-'95 Civic's and I've heard of people using the Integra Fluidyne there too. You may have some clearance issues with the driver side fan and the exhaust manifold, but everything should fit. Seeya.
