i've come across a small problem!! i have no room for a radiator!!

i've fitted a T3 and due to not wanting lag i posted the charge pipe strait thro were the radiator should be, there were other reasons why i installed it this way, but thts the way it is!!

i now have a space that i cant even cram a 40x36cm radiator in.

what do i do now, can i install one in the boot or do i need a pump in the lines as the quantity and distance the water will be travelling?

 

Get some pics of what you have now...you can rock the 92+ civic 1/2 rad with the lean or move the mounts for it to sit properly

 

what the hell is a "boot"?

 

Europeon

 

A couple feet of charge pipe has ---- all effect on spool. Stop blindly believing everything you are told, and route your charge piping intelligently.

 

Did you rotate your center section? It can be done, about 10000000000people on HMT have use this setup and done it.

BTW what manifold and such?

 

"Boot" the correct term for the back of a car where u usually stick your shopping or a sub, neither in my case!

i've just got a rad out of a 95 civic which is half the size so we're going to make some new mounts and cut the underneath of the bonnet to get her in.

do you reckon this will provide enough cooling? being half the size but twice the potential heat?

also do rads have to be fixxed on flexi rubber mounts or can u just bolt them down?

 

the half rad should be fine for cooling if you want extra security pick up a slim fan since they usually are more powerfull than the stock fan and are better for cooling...I'd also mount the rad on some rubber mounts if its to stiff you cold possibly crack

 

were can you get these slim fans?

prefferably in the UK

 

Can't really help you for where in the UK but they are universal fans so any should work for you...I got my from LSD motorsports on here they have a add in the FS section and mostlikely will ship to the UK
