Default fluidyne install

i just wanted to share. when i put this in i ran into a few problems, the first was the i have a auto and the radiator was for a manual. second the stock fan did not bolt up. i had to add a tranny cooler, since the old one was part of the raditor. for the fan i had to put bolts in the holes were the fan should bolt up. then i put holes in the fan and put zip ties in to hold it up. this is only till i can get a fan. i plain on putting on a turbo so this just get some work out of the way.

cool stuff i was thinking of getting a koyo for mine and some slim fans. dude the harness setup you have going on is not very safe...for one you are running stock seats...why not just run the stock seatbelts...the designers weren't retarded when they designed them. they work just fine for anything you will be doing in an accord.

I'm diggin the radiator and the stripped accord, but yes, don't change out the stock seatbelts, theyre a lot safer than you think...those things will get you killed.

waaay off topic, but yes, you can mount them at a 45-degree angle. you just cannot mount them behind the seats on the floor.

and good job on the radiator install! the fans are a pain. i used a couple of derale fans for mine. you should have let us know though, i have a B&M trans cooler you could have used.
