radiator swap?

I am having some issies with my car overheating alot latly.
I had it checked for resons at the dealership and they couldnt find anything so I am looking to swap out the tiny single core plastic radator with a Integra GS-R radiator.

Has anyone done this before or know of any issues I would have to worry about?

I have access to a welder to fabricate mounts so thats not an issue. Can you think of any other problems I might have with this?
Thanks

Do you know what they check for. Things that can make ur car overheat
(coolant temp swtich,fan swtich, theromstat,Fried fuse for fan relay,possblie water pump, the worst a minor head gasket leak.That's a pretty shity dealer if they could find the problem. Ad'least you got ur money back right? because they didn't find the problem???
As changing the radiator it works good!!!freinds have done that,not me thow I simple just got a C&R aluminum radaitor.

I'd always support going to a better radiator but I wouldn't be so sure that will fix your over heating problem. Like Michael said there are a lot of possible problems that can lead to a car over heating and the fact that the dealership couldn't figure out what was wrong leads me to believe they have some poor service issues to deal with.
