so i just removed my A/C and most of its componenents. took a while, but i love the way it looks.

heres how she started out.


^^wish i had all the shit im planning to remove when it was like that.



Now with No A/C componenets, NO EGR, No PS, and a few vacuum lines deleted. i am buying an "odyssey mini battery to my trunk. (aftermarket brand, not a van battery. lol) im also gonna lengthen and tuck my headlight harness' in my fender.





^^about 25lbs or so in that box.

Winter Mode. looks like poo.



P.S. this thread fueled my madness.

looks great bro

 

So what other plans you have besides the headlight wires and battery relocation? You're doin ABS too right?

 

Why Would You Take Out Your Ac????

 

cuz im a crazy motherfucker.

well chris i would like to get rid of ABS, but its gonna be so much work, the other things are easier. it would be nice to loose the 25-30 of ABS components, but its not a definite the Non-ABS parts that I THINK are gonna work are. ive been getting screwed lately with parts i thought would work and not actually work.

i also want to relocate my fuse box to my glove compartment.

 

Looks dope!

 

mmm hacker pschorr oktoberfest (so is warsteiner oktoberfest, and paulaner oktoberfest)
on the other hand, looking nice

 

yeah german beer FTW.

 

looks like your air filter took a beating

 

yeah it did, once i get my battery out of the way, im getting a Memory Fab Carbon Fiber whale dick intake.

 

looks good matt. good luck this summer

 

Nice matt, engine bay looks way cleaner. Lookin good, glad to see you finally got a grill

 

looks clean man and i think ur car looks sick in ur poo mode

 

lol on your plates.

but your filter is starting to look like my old one

 

do filters get like that by themselves or you guys had something to do with it?


-no0b

 

clean look, but no ac, no ps is nuts in a DD.

 

i think it just kept making contact with the battery.

 

in all honesty i think he ran over it.
Matt have you looked into a battery relocation kit

 

heh. "fuck you nj thieves" over the front license plate.

looks good though. what's different about winter mode? no cf hood? what kind of wheels are those?

 

there 99 CL Wheels. yeah no hood in the winter, but im gonna but it back on for this huge NJ meet coming up soon.

 

mine was crushed when me and hybridnrg were cleaning my engine bay and i had to move the car and the bag was still on the intake

 

why do you have a breather filter on the intake?? that wont work??

 

I think it may be time for a new filter.

 

German beef ftw I'm on my 3rd already

 

actually i don't have the breather anymore. and I changed to a AEM V2 also

 

lucky you i still feel like shit from drinking busch light all last night. i just woke up. lol

 

<<<<<<hungover as fuck

 

Theres this drink at a bar here in State College called a Mulekicker. 10 different liquors in a big jar, and ur only allowed to have 2 in a night BY LAW. Great way to spend $6.50 on a friday n saturday night lol. Thank god i'm not hungover somehow haha



Matt, when's this huge meet ur talking about? and what else are you removing from your car?

 

March 3rd. Liberty State Park in Jersey City. its right by the holland tunnel.

i dont think im removing ABS anymore.

-mini Battery in trunk
-headlights harness' tucked
-Coolant Overflow hidden
-fusebox in glove compartment (big job)
-IACV removed and blockedoff
-windshield washer resvoir removed
- power steering loop and rack removed (starting to dry up)

 

Busch light

 

get some1 esle to buy you another one no?

 

Had to make a comeback for this lol

That looks great Matt! It's always good to cut out some of the useless stuff. Once you get the Odyssey battery and the new CAI. You might regret the lack of AC though, and your arms will definitely get bigger from the lack of PS hahah... Now you just need ITBs or a Turbo.

I definitely gotta look into that meet...I've been out of the loop on this site for a while.

 

thanks kevin. i dont really drive my car that much in the summer, and im gonna get dark tints to keep the interior a little cooler.

that meet isnt an acurazine meet. its honda-tech meet. shit i dont think ive been to an acurazine meet in over 2 years.

 

No problem . Make sure you've got a PBA card or a DT badge when you get those tints 'cause you will be getting pulled over more, especially if you come on the island.

Yeah, I haven't been to an AZ meet since...probably the one at Roosevelt park but that was a Lexus meet too. It was fun hanging out with all of you guys though.

I wish that HUGE meet that happened last February would happen again. The one that was up near Garden State Plaza Mall that started out as a Subaru Meet but spread all over the internet to become over 1000 cars...THAT was sick! I'll never forget how cold it was, but it was well worth it.

More meets definitely need to happen but people won't come out because of the weather.

 

ill let you know about some of the meets i go to.

you should get a car??

 

...I should lol

I will one day. I just have no reason to at this point.

 

Whats been removed:
-Cruise Control
-Power Steering (still have to remove the p/s loop and rack)
-Air Conditioning
-EGR
-some random vacuum lines
-**UPDATED** Windsheild Washer Resvoir Removed-

lol

 

 

 

i'd love to part of these meets but idk of anybody else on here who lives in ohio and NJ is a LONG way from ohio lol
