- Thu Oct 09, 2008 3:05 am #73443 Aftermarket means better cooling and generally the fins are made of a better material than the OEM. An aluminum has a better life span and aids the cooling of your coolant better in contrast to OEM. Colder coolant = better engine performance = better efficiency

what does itr stand for and where do i get one?

a radiator out of a Integra Type R. its probly easier to find a aftermarket aluminum one instead. i just have a half size oem that works fine but seeing as you need to replace it might as well go with something nice.
