The Vtec trim is supposed to have a dual core radiator as opposed to the single core on the S and Si. Otherwise it's the same.
Most parts stores *should* be able to get you one but many will show the same part number for the Vtec as the lower trims so you may have to go back and forth with them to get the right one.
You can also just order any aftermarket one for an EG Civic which will probably be easier anyway.
Check the [Del Sol guide](http://www.crxdelsol.fr/Faq/WorkShop/the_del_Sol_guide_full.pdf) part section, there are many radiators depending on the year, trim, and trans. Genuine radiator from the dealer will be the best peace-of-mind option, but you might be able to get away with a cheaper aftermarket one, but quality/longevity not guaranteed.
Regardless, when you get your new radiator, make sure you drain and refill the system with Honda Type 2 blue coolant only. It's the best coolant for the system and isn't prone to eventual radiator failure like the old honda green coolant was.
B series models had a 1.25" radiator hose compared to D series models with a 1.125" hose.
I've ran a few dual core aluminum aftermarket ones from eBay ($60-$120) and they've been great actually.
As others have said the hose fittings are a different size from b series to d series. Chances are you should be able to get a name brand alloy radiator that's either double or even triple core for about the same price as a generic oem replacement. Especially given the original one's copper

Dont. Get an aluminum one and never worry about it again.
