  • Way to go man!^^^

    Today I got a little farther on my rear hatch floor. It's coming along well! I mounted the amp under the floor, it's hanging from the top. Then the sub is sitting on the wood flooring that is slightly raised from the floor.
    I got some carpet like material from joanne fabrics- 10 yards for like 7 bucks! It was on sale. I bought some spray adhesive to spray on the wood (haven't done yet) I also need to pick up some staples for my stapler to staple the carpet as well.
    So far it looks great, works well and has helped the sound quality of the sub!

      • Got the oil cooler and radiator mounted permanently. I'm going to shorten the oil line on the pass side when I get a 120 deg. fitting, but for now it works. Tomorrow I'm making a hard turbo drain line because my rubber one is in bad shape.

              Yeah, it bolts in. I needed more room for my radiator and I wanted more strength in the front end. The radiator is a civic eBay deal.I just modified it to fit the hoses better and painted the end tanks black to give it an o.e.m. look.

              • Great job on the radiator. Really annoying i couldn't raid my extensive aspire parts bin for cooling system after my 1.8 swap, manifold right in the way. With a turbo down there it would stick out even more.

                    Thanks! These civic radiators are a deal on eBay. I couldn't buy the materials to make a radiator for what they charge shipped. They are very easy too weld on as well so they can be adapted without much effort.
