Default Making engine bay cleaner

I am putting a b18b1 in my engine. So at the moment my car doesnt have a engine in it.

What can I remove from my engine bay that I do not need.

I want to shoot for this.

Getting an engine bay that empty is a LOT of work and fairly complicated. Follow DJYosha's advice if you're serious.

Click on the search button and select advanced search. Type in "shaved tucked" and then select search titles only. You will find a thousand page thread of everything you'd want to know.

I'd post a link but I don't know how to do it on my iphone.
