Engine bay shave and tuck part II

[Christofur]

Ahh I almost forgot about the slim fan that I bought few days back (Y)

(Y) fan is (Y)


Test fit on the rad.


Its 10" in size, I should have gotten 12 or even 14 inch instead but nobody carries them -.- Or maybe I didn't look hard enough :p But yeah I'm gonna use the single 10" for now and see if I have any problems later. Else ima get myself another 12 or 14 as puller fan and mount this one in front of my AC condenser as a pusher.

the only problem i see is if the fan is bolt through your radiator after a while when the fan is on and vibrating its going to make the holes bigger and you might have to get a new radiator

Aha that is just a temporary setup for PICS. I'm gonna fab a proper bracket for it so no worries there!

And what color!!! ><

Jack up the car and drop the subframe... that seems like a shitload more work though. Aren't those engine hoists that hang from the ceiling pretty cheap? It's like just a pulley system? Can't rent one from the auto parts store?

youd be suprised its pretty easy. i was pulling honda motors from the top for about ten years until i discovered how much easier and faster dropping motors from the bottom is (using a car lift though, prob be a pain in the ass with a floor jack and jack stands). shaved about 30-40 minutes off of my removal time and would have a complete intact car to having the drivetrain removed on a rolling dolly in about an hour. way easier especially on all the newer hondas with full front subframes (civic, rsx, accords, etc.)

hey, where did you get that battery tray?

[Hazwan]

Just some random battery tray that I found on the parts store that fits

nice job so far, using factory parts with the wiring relocation

[Hazwan]

Thank you sir (Y)

And heres moar updates for today!

Made myself a new custom length harness and ran them through the new holes. Obviously its far from being done, I'm running out of wires LOL


Some wires for...


Relays and fuses hidden away in the cowl!


And yes, I'm gonna protect them from the water Same with my coil


OMGRELAYS

[MessyHonda]

wow engine bay looks clean...are you going to do a b16 swap anytime now

[Hazwan]

As soon as you guys starts sending me some $$ to my paypal

[79cord]

Lots of relays!
Would you run the wires to the front of the car through that structural tube on the body?
Pre'79 Accord used it for cold-air induction to the carburetor.

I kind of did mine the opposite of yours, I pulled the firewall/cowl & left-side harness back into the cabin from the fusebox and ran my left-side harness through the lower left chassis rail from a small hole I drilled in the firewall to the front of the car, with some exiting through a factory hole by the alternator.
Though there were complications getting it past some internal reinforcements under/behind the bumper mountings... & I didn't do the equivalent (thicker) right side wiring.

Oh Hazwan. Are you really going to go all Jackson Pollock on it? You know what you're doing but I think it's not going to look very good, especially when you get a little road grime on it.
