Here is my first set up i have ever done. Given the fact that i have an EF, and the lack of room explains the routing of pipes.

Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
do you think that silicone elbow is too close to the manifold?
Should i wrap it? How about a heat shield? |
Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
Nice car, I've had two of that same bodystyle. Can't tell it's your first setup. Looks good. What turbo you running?

Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
Looks good! I love the 88-91 4 doors. Hows the half core fit with the etd trac bars?

Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
I have never driven the car. I have a massive fuel leak from the fuel sending unit. the hard lines are rotted through. It sucks...

I picked up my sisters, 88 hf for $275 last year, It ran great but had the good old imput shaft bearing noise. I went to the wrecking yard, picked up a trans for $60 and she is still driving that thing. I think it just turned 240,000 miles. :o

Check out my sleeper guage pod, I dont like having guages on the A pillar. No disrespect to any one, i just think its gaudy.... NO heat for me. Who needs it. I'll let vtec keep me warm. Attachment 13711 And my wideband. I coverted a clock housing to hold the internals of the PLX 300 wideband. In no means is this original, but i think its cool... Attachment 13712 Attachment 13713 |

Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
Damn good work. Do you have any pic's of the down pipe/ rad?
|
Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
hella nice.. love it!
|
Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
I like it
|
Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
this is an awsome build. good stuff,
i would get an aluminum 90 instead of the silicone.. and wrap it so you can avoid some heat exchange. |
Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
nice build man. I had ETD traction bars in my hatch. They worked pretty damn good.

Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
4dr FTW :y

Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
that oil filter sandwitch is bad ass
|
Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
I didn't Teflon any of my threads. I think i might have oil leaks. I was told by someone at a machine shop that you don't have to the Teflon NPT thread because it is tapered, and makes a seal when tightened...

Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
I need a small radiator. Where can i get one? Anybody know what year/make/model i can use?
I think a 1989 Huyundai Excel might work... |
Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
use a 92-00 civic half rad and gangster lean it for clearance 8)
|
Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
i just cut out the lower radiator support, and let the lower radiator hose rest on the cross member, but since you have a traction bar, dont know how well that will work or wont.

Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
ebay good ness in my pic only buy the quaity one (mishimoto) see it below in my pic... 154 shipped i bought one for 100 shipped no name brand and that junk started leaking after a few months..
|
Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
I have a half cut radiator in there now and it rubs my downpipe.
I really don't want to do a gangster lean. I want to keep it stock looking and clean. Not to say leaning looks hack... Well yes I guess I am saying that. Do you guys see any issue with cutting the lower radiator support? Everywhere I look its 50/50 with people for and against... |
Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
People use to use Neon rads because there a bit smaller the the civic half rad.
|
Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door

or Where do i buy radiator core so i can make my own end tanks? |

Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
I believe this is a short version of a eg radiator. Kinda pricey for me.

Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
your setup fits my style in every way.
nice, clean and simple. makes the v8 guys cry even harder when you annihilate them. i especially like how you kept it as oem as possible. didnt molest the bumper. good job |
Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
ya, i made sure to try and keep as much of the bumper support as possible. A friend of mine took his out completely, and the bumper looked like ---- afterwards...
All i did was cut just enough to make the intercooler fit... everything still bolts up oem style... |
Re: Sleeper Status ls/v @ 10psi Burgundy 4 Door
Yea, I got lazy and left my bumper support out, and zip tied the cover on... now it sags in spots. :( So good call. Cus now I need to go to the Junk Yard and find another support that I can hack apart.
