I know the EP3 Rad is recommended
I know that the DC5 needs to be modified to fit

I need a Rad for my swap and can get a brand new DC5 for much cheaper than EP3 Rad

so...what do you need to modify to make the DC5 fit in EM2 Kswap? Also, is it hard? Anyone have pictures...?

BTW, I currently have and RS Grill on a coupe so i'm not using a Radiator cover (I think that's what its called, the one that is connected to the stock grill)

thanks

I'm not sure exactly what all you'll have to shave and cut, but it's a tight fit. Since you're not using the radiator cover, you won't have to cut that up, but that'd be the easiest part anyway. I've heard some people say that once they put the DC5 radiator in, they had to cut it out to put in a new one.

I'm not even sure if I have an EP3 one or a DC5. I'll try to find out then take a look at it, and if it ends up being a DC5 i'll let you know what needs to be done.

Took out my EP3 radiator yesterday and put in a rsx koyo radiator so dont see why not.. side by side comparison its the same height, width and so forth.
