The Radiator Project.

I Have A European Model 2003 CL9 (Acura TSX)
Auto Transmission.

I Want To Change The Stock Single Row Radiator To
Some Aftermarket Performace 2 Row Aluminum Radiator

Kindly Help Me in Finding The Best Bolt On Replacement

e.g
Mishimoto etc

Reason: Heating Issue.

Thnks

I dont see why youd need an upgraded radiator unless your pushing over 400whp+
The stock radiators work quite well.

^^ I Agree Above That Y I Need It ..

Its Simple Answer Is " Its My Car I Want A Performance Radiator "
or
As We Change Brake Pads From Stock To Hawk Performance etc
As We Change Good Engine Oil, We Change HID's, We Change Air Intake,
Cat Back Exhaust etc

As Same I want To Change The Radiator Also Guys ...

Main Reason Is " Performance " For Which One Is Running After ..

So I think We Should Stick To The Topic Neither Questioning Or Saying Stock Works Well.

So Now I Hope Member Will Help Me In finding The Correct Item Em Looking For ..

thanks Guys

It would help to not be a dick.

1) If your having cooling issues, a bigger radiator is only a bandaid.
2) A bigger rad isnt going to give you any better "Performance"
3) I do not think there is a aftermarket rad for the TSX, I will have Griffin make me a custom Rad for my build once I get closer to that time. Contact Hybrid racing, they sell griffin rads and they may be able to help you out, but dont expect it to be cheap.

Theres no reason to randomly upgrade to a bigger better rad, in fact you can harm the engine if it stays to cold. Figure out WHY its overheating and dont just bandaid it.

I Agreed To Ur Statement Bro ..

My Car Is Not All Stock :)
Its Equipped With,

INJEN Air Intake, J2 Headers, Skunk2 Cat back Exhaust,
Unichiped, Hondata Head Gas Kit Shield etc ..

Rest My All Things In engine Are Perfect Like No Leaks etc

Uk Model Cars Are made For Cold Places With The Single row Rad With The Stock Thermostat Which Works @ 78* C So That engine remains Warm...

But As I Import This Vehicle To My Country y There Is Alot Of Change In Environment .. Summer Kill Cars ..

Well Y My Car Get A Little Overheated ??
In Pakistan My City Is Peshawar & The Traffic Is Very Much .. Environment Is Dirty & Vehicles Heat on Road Is Way Too Much .. In Summers Is Very Heated Over There ...

Its Not Like That It Get Over Heated Every Day No NO ...
Its In Traffic Jam Sometimes Or When i Go Up Hill So Then It happens

I Have ordered The Mishimoto Racing Thermostat Which Works At 60* C Along The OBX Rad Hose Pipe ...

So Thats The BAsic Reason ..

Em Nt That Fool That I Wanna Get Change The Rad Suddenly ..

I Hope Now Every1 Understand Well ..

Looking For mOre Feed Back Guys ...

1- If you agree with the aforementioned statement as you indicated, then you agree you DON'T need an upgraded radiator. You're nowhere near the mentioned power level.

2- If it's really as simple as you say, then its also as simple as "go find one yourself, quit having others look for you"

3- we are sticking to the topic, and we will question your flawed misunderstanding of needing a "performance" radiator, when you don't. Hinting at "answer my question or stfu" isn't going to get you anywhere

4- Thermostat and fan switch is all you need. Upgraded fans are an additional option.

4- Why Do You Type Like This? No written English dialect capitolizes EVERY WORD. Its annoying to read.

It seems this guy really only wants a shiny aluminum "racing radiator" for no reason other than to have it. Fan switch, thermostat, possibly fans - that's all you need. Your radiator's cooling ability, stock or "performance", is going to be dictated by those 3 factors given the environment you described.

^^^ Is the reason I started and continue to dislike this place.

Type like an intelligent human being, not what ever garbage youve been typing. If english isnt your native language thats fine, but at least make an effort; otherwise just dont post.

Theres this awesome thing called google, dont be afraid to use it.


If you continue to be a condescending, impolite ass; no one will help you.

For future reference, Hollowman,

You were being given advice. You clearly misunderstood your needs, and as such multiple members here tried to assist you by educating you in hopes to help you with your situation and possibly avoid making an unnecessary purchase. Once you: 1) ignored questions about your problem, 2) followed up by ignoring relevant information and advice on the topic, 3) further followed up by condescending dumbass comments, 4) purposefully being obnoxious with your typing and AGAIN making dumbass comments regarding it, then I'm left with AGREEING with you.....

Maybe you're right and this ISN'T the place you should be asking for advice, as we're obviously unhelpful and ignorant to you.

Don't burden others with laziness, annoying typing, and ignorant comments. Good luck in sand land.

ON A SIDE NOTE:
I just showed this thread to my brother. He suggested:

"Tell him to use a sand-shield and turn down the Sun; that'll take care of everything."
