    PWR vs OEM

    here they are side by side:











    from my very close inspection, they are close to identical...

    and the answer to Jingers previous question - the plastic 19mm OEM radiator is 2.1kg lighter than the aluminium 35mm PWR one

    at 3.0kg vs 5.1kg

      i believe dc2s can use all the way up to 53mm as i have seen the koyo radiator 53mm for dc2 *or maybe more then 53mm*.

      So a 35mm is going to fit in your bay with no issues at all

        Thanks tinker for letting me know. The stock is awfully thin isnt it. It reminds me of those japanese doors with the rice paper

              umm i dont doubt it will fit into a stock Dc2.. but i wanan know if it will fit My dc2.. im certain the 53mm koyo radiator prolly hit something in my car..

              i got about a ~7mm gap between my stock radiator and something else atm so thats kinda why i needed the side picx...

              but no doubts on it fitting normally..

                            There's specific full length EK ones avaliable from Fwin. My mate had it on his EKB20. It fitted perfect, but this is assuming you don't have AC cause it using the both your Radiator and AC Condensor mounts from underneth.

                              PWR has half size for civics and crx, you might want to have a look on those first instead.
