Can I keep my air conditioning with this radiator?

No. The manufacturer states that the Max Cooling Radiator for DC2 cars cannot be installed with air conditioning fitted, so the A/C hardware has to be removed first. It is aimed at stripped track cars and lightweight street builds, not at an Integra Type R that needs working air conditioning for daily use.

Which cars does the Max Cooling Radiator for DC2 fit?

It is listed for the DC2 Integra Type R with the 1.8 liter B18C engine, including the 1997 to 2001 Acura Integra Type R sold in the United States. It is a full-size radiator designed for this chassis rather than a universal core, so swapped or heavily modified engine bays should be checked before ordering.

How thick is the core and what is it made from?

The core is 48mm thick and the whole radiator is aluminum. The manufacturer uses a flex round integral press process that keeps the material the same thickness through bends and folds, which it says adds strength and saves weight compared with forming methods that thin the metal at each bend.

How much will it lower coolant temperature on track?

The manufacturer says efficient coolant flow raises heat dissipation and prevents the temperature rise that comes with full throttle running. No temperature figures are published, so the result depends on ambient conditions, fan setup, ducting and how hard the car is driven. It is designed for sports driving in every season.

Who should add the optional heat dissipation coating?

The manufacturer recommends the coating for drivers who do a lot of sports driving, saying it gives a higher cooling effect. It is not included with this radiator and is not part of this listing. Ask Bulletproof Automotive if you would like the coated version checked for availability through the US distributor.

Description

J’s Racing Max Cooling Radiator for DC2 Honda Integra Type R

J’s Racing’s Max Cooling Radiator for DC2 Integra Type R builds is a full-size, all-aluminum unit with a 48mm thick core, developed in Osaka to stop coolant temperature creeping up at full throttle. The Honda-only tuner forms it with its own flex round process, an integral press method that keeps the sheet thickness constant through every bend and fold, so the radiator gains strength while losing weight. It earns its place on a B18C car that runs track days or summer autocross; it cannot be fitted alongside air conditioning, so an Integra that must keep working A/C is the wrong candidate.

Design and Performance

A new forming technique raises capacity by using the available space fully, and coolant moves through the core efficiently to shed more heat. The company points to two side benefits of a stable temperature: the B18C avoids the power loss of the ECU’s high-temperature correction, and fuel economy does not suffer from it either.

Features

All-aluminum construction chosen for low weight and cooling efficiency
Full-size Max Cooling Radiator for DC2 cars with a 48mm thick core
Flex round integral press forming holds material thickness through bends for added strength
Steady temperature keeps the ECU from pulling power through its hot-engine correction
Efficient internal coolant flow to resist temperature rise at full throttle

Applications

Acura Integra Type R: DC2 | 1997-2001 | 1.8L B18C5
Honda Integra Type R: DC2 | 1995-2001 | 1.8L B18C

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.
