Civic Radiator?

[Josh26]

Will a 1/2 size civic radiator run ok in are cars? cause i've seen swap hatchbacks with the 1/2 size radiator in them and if i can run a smaller radiator i'd be pretty happy. So is it ok to run one or what?

civics run h22's with half radiators no problem, id assume itd be perfectly fine.

Just make sure its an extra thick core to help make up for the loss in surface area.

Good luck man. Take pics when its installed. Im thinking of doing the same thing. My rad now is pretty beat up and my turbo is too close for my liking.

You need a dual core civic radiator. You get the single core your gonna overheat.

Let me know how it goes cause I may follow suit cause my radiator is leaking

This mod is only recommended if you do NOT have AC. Unless you can somehow rig up the fan to sit on the condensor which shouldnt be hard. 99% of the people that do this have boosted setups and no AC. Only turbo setup I have seen with AC is iamanonymous car with a full size koyo.

when im going to be running turbo. im going to run a/c with the civic rad to make some room to run the intake pipe from the turbo and run the intercooler lines.

alright i order a 95 dual core radiator to put in my car. hopfully i'll have it by this weekend and i'll get some pics up asap.

dual core rad and a high powered fan at least 12inch the bigger the better with manual thermo switch and set it to run at a low temp and you should be good to go
good luck

also buy a 160 degree or below thermostat to make the cold cooling flow quicker into the motor.
