Dirtiest engine bay you've ever seen...

Post by 91White-T »

Finally took some engine pics after WRX IC install, it actually fits pretty well...

Other crap I did: removed coolant tank, see filler cap on upper hose. (Thanks for the direction vrg3). Mad JDM black Greddy type s. A/C removed completely, 300zx TT fuel filter, cheap little cone filter, ground wires, Joe P MBC (which you can't actually see in the pic), homemade FCD. Greddy 1.5bar boost gauge, and yeah... thats miles not KM and yeah its all original :o

That is just awesome. You've got a motor with almost 4 and a quarter hundred thousand miles, and you're boosting it, and I know you're driving it hard.

That's just awesome.

What are the dimensions of that filter? How much more room do you have before it hits the abs? Thanks

What did you do to the coolant lines from the resevoir?

Since you no longer have that resevoir do you have coolant going to your turbo?

Yeah, turbo still gets coolant, and I have a turbo timer installed, so everything is basically the same, minus one easily breakable and expensive part. Check out this thread, it should tell you everything you need to know.

Fitment's a little tight, but its ok(see bash marks on the firewall, lol). Look in the intercooling section, theres some pretty good advice on what you gotta do to fit it.
