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...

People use to use Neon rads because there a bit smaller the the civic half rad.

Look up the 95 Dodge Neon W/O ac. That rad will fit alot better, but you will need to get a inline cap, because the neon rad dose not have one.

I believe this is a short version of a eg radiator. Kinda pricey for me.

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

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...

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.
