opinion.

17s on a da would that be a yay or a nay

 

im getting really tired of looking at these abs relays on the right front side of my bay. i converted over to non-abs so i have no need for them but i want to know how to properly delete them. a couple of days ago i just grabbed a pair of side cutters and went to cut them off and when it went through the one wire the rad fan kicked on so i stopped immediatly! i did this after staring at my service manual and it says that all 3 relays are for abs but could not figure out why in the world the rad fan would come on. has anybody cut these relays out before? and would i have to tie some wires together or can i just cut then and seal them off without having any problems?

 

big NAY! i think 16's are even too big.

 

Thanks man.

I have a **** ton of DA stuff to sell before I move to Seattle for anyone interested.

i miss this car =[

 

im running 16's =]
dont look that bad..

 

your car was so clean and simple.

anybody got a set of one piece for sale? pm me if you do thanks!

 

IMO 16 is the biggest id go on a g2. got 15 konig retracks now but want 16 te37's. go ahead and hate its cool cuz I will be happy. Now opinions: white orange or takata green?

 

why would we hate on te37's...and on that color car i'd go with white, and i hope they're 16x8

 

i have some 16 bronze TE's coming in



so question,

my brother was backed into, the lights are bent inwards can i just switch out the top portion of the rad support? so the lights will lign up again?

 

its not removable but i guess if you found a straight one at the junkyard you could cut it and weld it into the car, best bet would be to just get it straightened out

 

I say that cuz Ive heard others say only original or "time period" wheels should be put on. I plan to go w as big as I can fit under there. I was leaning towards white cuz I think it gives it a sharp look....but they're so damn hard to keep clean!!! Also w rims will be low pro tires instead of roll down the road giants crap. And for the the people all about lips future plans for a JDP front.

 

I heard that its just tack welded on, not sure how true that is

 

i know i have seen my brother cut out and reweld in a rad support like 3 times its just spot welds normally which are a pain, if you have a lot of em lol

At least thats what he did on type-r swap on his DB idk if DAs are different

 

hmmm so i should just be able to drill the spot welds out and tack the new one on?


im gonna go try it at the junk yard

 

It should be spot welded in Leo. One of the joys of a unibody car is everything is just spot welded lol
Most rad supports are in two pieces and upper and lower. This gives you option of replacing either one when they are damaged or rusted for less then the cost of the whole piece.

I'm actually replacing mine on my Talon in about a months time.

PS. I want those damn RPF1s you have but I'm working on too much other **** with my damn car to buy new wheels this year.

 

ohh cool that should make life easier then lol im going to the junk yard today

so i think ill grab one and try to swap it this weekend

 

I have 17s on the front of my car in the garage right now and I honestly think it looks pretty rad. Maybe I can snap a quick picture.

 

It's not that hard.
Spot weld cutters make it easier, you can get em for cheap at Harbor Freight.

 

Shitty cell phone pics

After i used the other rust remover i didn't completely rinse them off and they had surface rust on them lol.



So i put them in them some clr for a minute



And then i polished each one by hand with this and a t shirt lol



Not perfect but looks alot better



80 bolts done

 

looking good herb!

 

Nice work herb,

So i removed an upper rad support from a clean teg......man they tacked it like 30 times lol

Ill end up swapping them this coming weekend

 

^^ what did you use to drill the spot welds out & how long did it take?
