well today was soooo nice out, i decided to gank my a/c and put in my new radiaitor....

here is some pics... took me n my cousin about 2 hours to do both things, and we even bullshitted around...

here is everything out, no we didn't let the antifreeze go in to the storm drain, that was a just in case precaution, all the neighbors have dogs..

anyways def needed a new rad...look at the old piece!! and theres all my ac lines and compressor/condenser etc...

 

lots of room!

 

all done... don't mind my wire loom it was from riceburninvtecs crashed civic..haha i told him i would keep the faith...i just never had time to put a piece of black wire loom over those ground wires...

 

:thumbup:

 

looking good...nice to see some rexs still in good shape

 

looks good man :thumbup:

 

Why'd you take out the AC? Weight reduction?

 

it make ur engine bay look so much nicer for some reason...? ha

my a/c compressor was cracked and didn't work, so we ganked it...

i also need a new rad. so why not a better time to do it...


i'll get some more pics today...they look dark!

 

Looks like you did a good job removing most of your A/C system. If you want to shave a bit more of the system out, it's not that hard to remove the condesor box piece in your dash. It comes down with a few 10m bolts, it wieghs about 10lbs or so. Just remove it from the plastic box it resides in then re-install the plastic box so your air/heat still works properly. This box is a good palce to hide electonics or other gadgets.

 

yea...im going to go to the junk yard n pic up a non a/c plastic box thing then take that out... rightnow i have cotton balls in these...
