Which cars does the Max Cooling Radiator for EK9 fit?

The Max Cooling Radiator for EK9 Civic Type R models is designed for the JDM car with the B16B engine, and the manufacturer also lists the EK4 Civic. US-market EK Civics may not share the same fit, so confirm your chassis and engine with Bulletproof Automotive before ordering.

Does it work with air conditioning?

Yes. This is the factory-size, thicker version built to keep air conditioning in place, measuring 48mm thick. For race cars that have removed the A/C, the manufacturer can build a full-size core instead, which is handled as a separate request rather than through this listing.

What is flex round processing?

It is a one-piece press forming method used on this radiator. Because bends and folds are formed without thinning the aluminum, the parts gain strength and the radiator can be made lighter at the same time. The approach also let the manufacturer increase capacity within the factory-size space.

Will it lower my coolant temperature?

Yes, according to the manufacturer. The core is designed to move coolant efficiently and shed more heat, so temperature rise at full throttle is held back. A steady temperature helps keep the ECU from reducing power and protects fuel economy. No temperature figures are published, so results depend on the car and conditions.

How much does it weigh?

No weight is published for this radiator or for the stock part it replaces, so the saving cannot be quoted. Weight reduction was one of the two main goals alongside cooling efficiency, which is why it is all aluminum and formed with a process that adds strength without adding material.

Description

J’s Racing Max Cooling Radiator for EK9 Honda Civic Type R

J’s Racing’s Max Cooling Radiator for EK9 Civic Type R owners is an all-aluminum unit built to factory size, so the B16B car keeps its air conditioning while gaining cooling capacity. J’s Racing used a new forming process to fit as much core as the space allows, at 48mm thick. Its flex round processing presses parts in one piece so the metal keeps its thickness through bends and folds, adding strength while saving weight. Coolant moves through efficiently and sheds more heat, holding temperature down at full throttle and sparing the ECU from trimming power on a hot engine. The Osaka Honda specialist aims it at circuit and hard road use in any season; a gently driven EK9 with a healthy stock radiator gains less.

Features

All-aluminum construction built around light weight and cooling efficiency
Factory-size, 48mm thick unit that keeps air conditioning in place
Flex round processing keeps wall thickness constant through bends for added strength
Capacity enlarged to use all of the available space
Efficient coolant flow that resists temperature rise at full throttle
Steadier coolant temperature helps avoid ECU hot-engine power reduction and poorer fuel economy

Applications

Honda Civic Type R: EK9 | 1997-2000 | 1.6L B16B

Notes

J’s Racing designs this part for the JDM EK9 Civic Type R with the B16B engine; it may not fit the US-market EK Civic
J’s Racing states that it also fits the JDM EK4 Civic
This is the thick, stock-size version that works with air conditioning; a full-size core for race cars without A/C is a separate request to J’s Racing, so ask before ordering
Built to order in Japan once you buy; Bulletproof Automotive confirms the build lead time through J’s Racing USA

About J’s Racing

J’s Racing was established in Osaka in 1989, as VTEC engines and lightweight Civics and Integras were changing what a Honda could do, and it has built parts for Hondas ever since. The company develops engine response, suspension, braking, cooling and aerodynamics together as one system, then proves the parts in time attack, gymkhana, endurance and circuit racing. Its Fit lapped Tsukuba Circuit in 1’00.459, and its naturally aspirated AP1 S2000, the Maou car, became the company’s reference build for the Honda roadster. Every J’s Racing part is designed and tested in Japan, and J’s Racing USA in Carson, California handles distribution in the United States.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
