Posted: Fri Oct 12, 2012 9:02 pmIntegra hoses are made for a full radiator. If you have a full integra radiator then get integra hoses.
If you have a half size civic radiator, then you will want to get Delsol VTEC (DOHC VTEC b16) hoses.

If you buy them for a Del Sol VTEC/00-01 Si the hoses will be too long and the wrong shape.
Buy them for the engine youre using. A Gsr's upper hose is on the front of the cylinder, like an LS a B16/ITR is on the back of the head under the distritbutor.
If youre using a D series radiator the hoses for a GSR will be too large and you'll have to sinch the clamps down to prevents leaks.
I suggest using a Del Sol VTEC or 99-00 Civic SI radiator since it will come ready for "B" series size hoses. I think they're 36mm whereas D series are like 32mm, or something.
In in the end, buy them for the engine you're running.
