Open exhaust, and the "oil cooler".....

[M3NTAL]

Cut my hood and installed my latch! I plan on running a 8-10' slim fan in front of the condenser to help with keeping the condenser cool, so that means no latch support.


Chris that Thermo-tech stuff works great!

looks slick bro!

[M3NTAL]

Thanks chris, I can't wait to get these FMS springs in here ! Thanks again for the hook up on them!

[eurotiva]

Looks goofy

[M3NTAL]

I agree Greg....looks like I will be doing some more cutting soon to even up the IC and tuck it in the lower radiator support.

[bhazard]

FMS springs? Yeah youre always gonna have traction problems with those...

[M3NTAL]

True.....my car has fms springs and rides great. Also does 2.0~2.1 sixty foot times on street tires. You'll like them.

Got my car tinted today ! $75 bucks got me 5% tint on all windows and 40% on the windshield !!!!








We also charged up my AC system today, we were having trouble getting the compressor to run via the harness, so we jumped it to a 12v and filled it with fresh FREON!

I also bought 2 12'' slim fans that pull 1250CFM which is a lot more than the one that came with the aluminum civic radiator. Im planning on running one behind the radiator, and the other one in front of the condenser to help compensate with all the B6T turbo heat.

We also installed my escort down position rear wiper, figured out the dash light problem, hooked up my alpine head unit, installed front speakers, dash vent surround, confirmed i have a bad HID ballast (thank god for warranty)


My buddy with a 98 civic gave me his dual gauge pillar pod and i mounted my boost gauge and oil pressure gauges.

That looks so AWESOME! I want 5% on mine, but I want to keep on the correct side of legal...... (mainly so I dont get the book thrown at me for having no exterior mirrors and having a kamm-back (still to come)) And it would be somewhat pointless to put tint on the back 3 only.........

[Grey Vw]

Dang that was cheap for the tint. Looks really good.

[Damkid]

Tint on the windsheild?!?!?! is that even legal?

Looks great either way, i just prefer a tint strip across the top of the windshield

[Flyin4stroke]

Deff. Not legal. 18% is the darkest tint allowable in Florida.

And windshield tint is illegal.

[M3NTAL]

You got it Mike!

Chris,

Wait till you drive in this FL sun then your goin to wish you had yours tinted lol legal or not idc Cause im M3NTAL


Thermo Tec FTW!! Keeping the low side cold!
