Fluidyne Radiators

**Mike's89AccordLX** · 03-14-2003, 11:25 PM

I just registered under the forum board they have and I am trying to find out if they make a radiator for our car. I know it would be spendy b/c it's a quality product. I am also checking if other fitments would work for us also. Does anyone know off hand what are the measurements of our radiators? Hopefully they make em or I can get them to make them.

Get the 92 civic radiator and make it fit, it's that simple.

if you have an auto and need cooling then buy 2 B&M trans oil coolers or buy a single cooler with fan and shroud.

you can also get the FAL 92 civic fan to go with the fluidyne radiator... it just depends on how much you want to spend.

I'm pretty sure a high quality custom radiator from Fluidyne will cost more then the civic radiator.

Well thanks for the suggestion. Do you know the dimensions of both? What would I need to do to make it fit?

Ok it just says this for the fluidyne radiator 92-00 Civic 38mm Radiator. It doesn't even give a price. I checked their site and will probably end up emailing them to find a price.

its usually from $275 - $350.

Alright the cheapest I found was $399.95 (not including shipping)
Does anyone know what other good radiators are out there for us? I saw a Koyo radiator on ebay for like $85. I guess I just need a stock replacement for now. I don't really want to spend that much money when I could use it for 2 racing seats.

A20: Will the Civic radiator be enough to cool a A20? I mean, there is quite a size difference.

**Grant2k** · 03-17-2003, 07:14 PM

i've seen that radiator cooling a B20 in a civic. i'm sure it could handle the A20. would it be possible to use 2 since they're so small? or would that be overkill?

What are the dimensions of the civic radiator?

**Grant2k** · 03-18-2003, 09:36 PM

here is a picture of Jonny O's turbo hatch with an aluminum civic radiator. and this is a turbo drag A20, so i think it can handle the job. and i've seen this car run 12s in person.

it doesn't work, your image...

**Grant2k** · 03-19-2003, 07:56 AM

this one's not as good but you can still see it. you've all probably seen this one before.

**Jerren** · 03-19-2003, 09:56 AM

i would be interested in one of those, where did he get it and how muuch was his, and did he have to modify anything to make it fit.

**Grant2k** · 03-19-2003, 10:05 AM

he is registered on the board. his name is Jonny O. you can PM him or something but he doesn't post offten. i don't know how often he even checks out the board. give it a shot.

**Mike's89AccordLX** · 03-19-2003, 10:16 AM

Sweet. Hopefully it was cheaper than what I found. I like the look of that radiator.

**MoonScryer** · 03-19-2003, 10:49 AM

Good setup.

A20: Guess I'll have to give the rad thing a try

**Mike's89AccordLX** · 03-19-2003, 12:48 PM

That doesn't look like a fluidyne, but it looks badass. Someone find out how much he paid and where and what it is. I thought fluidyne wrote fluidyne on the rad. and that doesn't look like it says fluidyne.

Fluidyne just makes aluminum radiators. that's an aluminum radiator, and it's a civic radiator on an A20. that's the real point of it. the brand isn't really important.

**Mike's89AccordLX** · 03-19-2003, 01:18 PM

Well I was just saying that the name isn't fluidyne and I was curious to what name it was b/c that might be cheaper than the fluidyne. I like how it looks. I was just hoping it was like a knock off brand so I couldn't break the bank.

It's PWR
And it's pretty easy to tell he had to modify the upper radiator support... there is a big cut in it. personally i would try and sit the radiator lower... that way the cap has no chance of hitting the hood when closed.
