Finally got some shit done on my car. Teaser?

I've never really figured out the point of "teasers" but here you go. It's only a teaser because it's all I have done so far. lol
I finally found some time to get a few things crossed off my list. Today I installed my neon radiator, slim fan, and fabed up some mounts for my FMIC. Talk about freeing up some space, with the neon radiator in there I have sooo much room! :6 Fit's in there like a freakin glove... Attachment 31301 A taste of things to come... Attachment 31302 On a side note, I found some Hop Trip Ale!! I can honestly say that this is some of the absolute best beer I have ever tasted. They take the hops straight from the hop farm and drop them in the beer three hours later. It doesn't get any fresher than that!! Check out the video: http://www.deschutesbrewery.com/Brew...s/default.aspx Attachment 31303 Mmmmmmm!!!! ;D |

How thick is that radiator? Looks like 2.5 or so inches, you definitely freed up some room there. How does it perform in comparison with that of the civic? looks good

Attachment 31297 The core is the same thickness as the stock Civic radiator, so really thin. The slim fan I bought is supposed to be able to move a lot of air, so hopefully that makes up for the smaller size core. We will see. |

I'm not really in any hurry though. As long as it's done before next year's autocross season (around April), I will be happy. I'm not building this car for drag racing, although I might take it down the strip a time or two for fun. I'm not aiming for big power either. I want mid range and reliability. I want to be able to keep up with some of the other cars in the Street Mod class. I did pretty well last season but with a little boost and a new tire combo (13" Lenso VPDs and V710s) and I should be equiped to be at the front of my class. That is if I can drive well enough (a whole nother topic :S). |

I used one of those rads with a slim electric fan from B18turboef on here and it worked well in my turbo d16 setup.Things are looking good with your new setup so far :6

Anyways, I did some test fitting tonight, I just couldn't wait. lol. I wanted to make sure the turbine housing was going to clear the radiator. Looks like it clear by about 3/4". :6 Attachment 31259 Attachment 31260 Attachment 31261 *note* I still need to clock the turbo, I was just checking the turbine clearance. |
