What are the differences between these radiators: 19010-P73-A02 and 19010-P73-A03

Fan mounting shroud mounting locations? Did the shrouds match in part number? I recall with non Type R integras, some models had a different shroud mounting point that I didn't realize on my old automatic.

Automatic DC2/4's had a transmission cooler in the radiator, which would impact fan mounting.

Im not sure if that was the reason, but I did notice my all aluminum koyo radiator has provisions for both fan shrouds, but did not have the auto trans lines on it.

I used the denso rock auto OEM replacement without any issues on my EK Civic and had it for a few months on my integra.

The auto trans lines go to the transmission cooler at the bottom of the radiator.

I know that, but i don't think the shroud's mounting points had an impact on the trans lines, seeing as the aftermarket denso replacement I bought had the trans lines, but did not have issues with the fan mounting on my manual car. It was just a weird issue all around on my old automatic with unknown previous repairs...

Ohh I like this thread.

The closest OEM replacement radiator I have seen W/O the provisions for the auto transmission is the TYC 2028 unit. It is available from rockauto for something like $51 USD.

I am personally on the hunt for a radiator with out any sort of stupid logo embossed on the top. I would like to get one that is just a plain aluminum radiator, less than 2" in width with no branding on it so I can powdercoat it matte black.

I can confirm the below aluminum units have stupid logos embossed or raised on the top:

-Koyo
-Mishimoto
-CSF

Another option:
-Skunk2 has a glued on thing and a sticker on the top that is removable with elbow grease BUT its over 2" thick and made in china.

Spoon radiators are also available but cost most than a set of volk wheels - so thats not an option.

If you are going to powder coat it black, your powder coater might be able to shave the emblem off the rad and smoothen it out, similar to how they do the same to valve covers.

I was looking into that and emailed Mishimoto and they advised not do it, which didn't surprise me. I was looking to see if it was embossed and stamped from the other side or if was cast that way. If its stamped it would obviously be a no go, but if it is cast like a VC then, yeah that would be ideal and doable.

I got a Go Autoworks all aluminum radiator from eBay for my 1994 Civic back in 2014. I don’t remember seeing any logos on the radiator itself so that may be one brand to consider.

I just went on the Go Autoworks site and looks like they now weld a nameplate on top of the radiator.

Greg, the owner of go autoworks is a really good guy and builds some quality pieces.

I do not believe he offers the integra full length anymore which sucks because I probably would have bought one if he had.

Spoke with Greg at go-autoworks. He is making me a full length DC2 radiator with out some idiotic logo or bling on the top. Also going to cost less than a koyo/mishimoto equivalent.

My current mishimoto will be up for sale soon for balls cheap if anyone is interested.
