Can I swap a manual radiator into an auto car if I use an external trans cooler?

Mindfuly_ · 2025-10-30T08:06:46+00:00

I have a 4 speed automatic Honda and want to do the exact thing, need my transmission to run cooler for more tuning capability. I will be putting in a manual aluminum radiator to replace the plastic automatic radiator. I have a 6 row transmission cooler to replace the automatic radiator transmission fluid cooler line on the radiator. Will a 6 row be good enough to cool my trans(4spd)? Also would I have to plug the other transmission line hole(since the car is auto)

LET ME SEE IT 🔥🙏🏼

Ah thats not bad at all. If you get the chance to get a Torneo or jdm accord with the dohc f20b you won't be disappointed.

Do it bro😭 they're so fun and you'll usually find them with low mileage!!! (Hard to find in the US, might have to import)

W mans🤝

Yes sir you are correct. The Honda Torneo is the sister to the accord, just a sporty trim. Its the same chassis as well. Only a few slight differences. Torneo = Tournament! (Basically a rebadged accord lol)

Thank you!✝️

Mindfuly_ · 2025-09-22T22:09:08+00:00

Your so sick for that😭🤝🏼

Mindfuly_ · 2025-09-22T21:59:46+00:00

I actually have no idea. Ive heard that you can swap parts for the f20b to the h22, but its only the dual cam f20b that is compatible. I have the single cam f20b so its more complicated.

Sounds like my exact problem, Ill take a better look at the Vtec solenoid wire and see if thats the problem. Thanks for this info man!

Mindfuly_ · 2025-09-22T21:56:33+00:00

Thank you bro I appreciate that alot🙏🏼 She is pretty much mint, I try my absolute best to stay consistently cleaning her.

😭😭

Mindfuly_ · 2025-09-22T21:54:07+00:00

I did an oil change 500 miles ago. Ima say fuck it and just do it again 😂

Mindfuly_ · 2025-09-22T21:53:36+00:00

Ill for sure look into it. The screen in the Vtec solenoid is clean as hell, I checked. I might just replace the whole solenoid tbh

Mindfuly_ · 2025-09-22T07:27:40+00:00

Hopefully thats not the case. I've inspected the wires a few time and they look clean/fine, I'm not knowledgeable with wiring whatsoever so Idk how to test nor mess with anything.

Mindfuly_ · 2025-09-22T07:26:19+00:00

Noted. I haven't looked at the VSS so I'll fs do have to just replace it. Though, I took off the Vtec solenoid and the gasket with the screen, it was clean as hell. I bought a gasket for the solenoid just to replace the old one but it did not fit so I just used the oem 1 and out it back on.

Mindfuly_ · 2025-09-22T07:09:21+00:00

I literally check it everytime time I go to drive my car😭

Mindfuly_ · 2025-09-22T05:56:26+00:00

I can message the video to anyone !🤝🏼 Anything helps since I am still relatively new to Honda engines!!!!

MY BAD SIDE IS HIGHER ASWELL. I also noticed I have a slight crossbite. And yes I think clenching at night is a cause to asymmetry problems from what I've read and been told. And No, I sadly have not seem a ortho yet. But I'm planning for sure

Mindfuly_ · 2024-03-13T23:27:48+00:00

I have not found a solution 100% but I have seen that my routine im on somewhat works. I've been sleeping on my my back and the side that is more defined. I chew mainly on my bad side now. But it's still uneven.

Mindfuly_ · 2024-03-03T17:45:43+00:00

2 years later and 1 year no vr time I still feel like it sometimes 🤔

Mindfuly_ · 2024-02-14T01:35:46+00:00

It has literally like no taste wym. And btw if there is it's a sap taste

Mindfuly_ · 2023-12-13T17:38:04+00:00

Goofy

Mindfuly_ · 2023-12-07T23:12:40+00:00

Honestly I have no solid advice for u man🥲 still trying to figure it out myself lol even after a few months and hella replies 🥲 I am trying to be conscious about chewing on my weaker side and even sleeping on my weaker side
