A lot
What is the volume of that honda rad compared to the OEM one - will it be big enough mate?

[andy10v]

Not a clue, a fair amount less, shorter and thinner.

There are a few people running the ebay alloy honda ones (thicker core) so I can grab one at a later date if needed, this was only £20 for rad, fan (much thinner than stock) and hoses, so worth it just to mock up.

Good idea, rads tend to get trashed once you've removed & refit them a few times

Do You have a partnumber of the rad or do You know which civic model exactly it is from?

And some billet goodness courtesy of chef

Hi, where you bought the billet, i need one. Is stronger than stock?
Cheers

Hi ShurikeN

I got it from an Honda Civic, EK, about 1995-1999ish, EG civics also had them, possibly del sols, b16 and b18 cars I think have the double with rads, but low spec D series cars have the narrow ones like this.

I will see if there is a part no on it, you can get alloy ones on ebay for £70.

Yes, much stronger than stock, you can re use it.

It is already good info to find one, if someone needs to. Many thanks!

And some more sensible parts



ECU has been sent to Spink to get a 3B map sensor fitted, and to fit my 3B RS2+chips I got from James ages ago.

I am tempted to just fit the exhaust manifold, turbo and injectors, and refit the stock intake setup just now to get the car back on the road

[K Simmonds]

You got a cracking deal there on those RS2 bit's, think I'd want to bolt it all together ASAP and get it on the road when the sun show's itself. Could you use your ABY breaker for mocking up the inlet manifold set up? You could take you time over it and get it spot then swap it over on to your 3B when your 100% happy with it.

Good to knock Spink offers a MAP sensor/chip swap service, I'm going to PM him now as I have a 3 bar MAP I want fitting to my spare ECU along with a RS2+ spec chip set I've picked up.

[andy10v]

Yup, given that it was going to cost around £500 for a custom map, this setup is perfect as I have chips for it, and now have an extra turbo and injectors I can sell, plus the start of a downpipe I finish or sell at a later date.

This is all bolt on, so should be able to get rattled back together, custom stuff all takes time, even little jobs.

I dont have time to break the blue ABY just now so Tonks4x4 is coming to get it this weekend.

I need a stock radiator if anybody has one lying about, a non aux rad one would be perfect? (and non aux rad hose )

[martinws]

YES YES YES! Get it all nailed together n come up to Crail on Banzai day with me to annoy some japs! What other injectors do you have? I might take the DP bit off your hands if you decide to sell it.

[quattro-nick]

hey, I know those pieces.....................................
hopefully soon on the road with your car

[sidrick]

Woops

Looking forward to this!

[Error404]

haha, good work Andy
I'd just bolt it all back together with the 3B inlet. Just a larger intercooler left to sort then?
