To every1 with a FMIC

[redfox]

how the **** did you mount it? i have the front end riped off right now but i cant seem to find a way to mount it....

is the P/S fluid cooler really nessesary? its just in the way and i cant bend the ****er... ill post some pics for you guys in a lil bit...

any idea are welcome

[viper_707]

you'll need custom brackets probably. as for the power steering cooler (i thought it was a cheap oilcooler) you can always just move it a bit or somewhere else. but the big question is what ya gonna do about the intercooler piping, i hear its real pita to find a good place to run it. good luck. PICS!!!!!!!

ya i welded brackets to my rad support.

the firs tpic is of the p/s cooler.....can i take it off????? that ****er is in my god damn way!!!
next is of how my FMIC will be mounted with the mallet as the support and all!

I put that cooler thing behind my IC. I then took 2 pieces of aluminum, drilled holes in it and attatched it to the bottom of the hood release thing, then 2 bolts to the bottom of the IC. As for pipes, do you best, is hard, but possible.

what about the intercooler clearing the crash brace? am i going to have to chop it up or what?

[THEGOLDPRO]

id say just tuck the cooler thingy behind the intercooler, thats what i did, and just make a custom bracket for the intercooler, cant be too hard.

[SPENONE]

yeh most people just put the IC in front of that p/s line...i have it like that also.

As far as your crash brace,..either u cut it up or throw it out.

then find a way to keep your bumper on. Not to hard.

[redfox]

well. i took the crash brase and cut it so that the intercooler will fit tucked in it...here are some pics...the intercooler will be just over 6inches from the ground...

[redfox]

oh and here is where i plan on running my piping....its right where the tow hooks are so im going to cut them off...if i need a tow they will just have to pull me from the back i guess :\
first pic is on the drivers side and second is of passengers side.

Looks good.

[redfox]

thanx...i dont have any brackets to hold it so its just sitting on the couplers in the pics... i work tommarow so it just going to sit....monday mourning im going to see about making some brackets....

[95ProLeila]

they aren't actually tow hooks, more like tie downs if you trailer it.

[the_slow_pro]

you should cut the rest out like this and for a lil more air.


just a random thought, but good luck on the swap, i kno you got off to a bad start.

[redfox]

i didnt see the point in cutting it all the way through....if you think about it....that part is coverd by the bumper anyways...
