Did a search, didn't really find anything but I have a question, do I remove the extra fan that's on the radiator? Its not like the civics with a separate fan for the condensor and radiator, does it affect the car in away way?

wanna sell me the system?

 

Why?

I thought you didn't track your car.

Weight reduction. I track my car @ the 1/4 hehe.

I'll road race it sooner or later, I just figured I never use A/C even when its 120 degrees outside and I could use the extra money from it for some Toda A cams

UPDATE: Okay, the only thing left is the compressor and one of the lines. The line is stuck because I don't have an open ended socket big enough to take it apart. My friend is on his way to the rescue!

Since it's starting to get really hot now, should I just remove the evaporator from the dash and leave it like it is until I can buy that 1997 Integra Type R air duct?

It should be fine w/o anything there right?

 

Thanks for using my picture, ***

 

Got a question, what's the white thing to the right of the evaporator? do i remove it?

 

as far as I know the extra fan only comes on when the AC is on. (correct me if I am wrong).

So I am wiring a switch so I can manually turn it on/off. Doubt that it will help much, just thought it would be a cool project.

 

Okay. I am done. well, not quite.

I have everything removed and good to go except that my car hasn't been reassembled. I also lost the nut to one of the battery tie downs, blah!

It got dark so I'm going to finish tomorrow. Here's a couple of pictures before it got dark.

BTW, A/C is up for sale!

 

Heh.

What's so funny?

 

Just funny to me how I made that comment about the picture but you said nothing to me and just changed it to yours later on. Oh well.. no biggie.

 

if you really want to save the wieght. take the heater boxes out. the AC box doesnt weigh a thing compared to those 2. i took my heater boxes out, them my uncle had a good point about when it rains or snows, i need something to defog with. no A/C sure does clear up a lot of space doesnt it

Damn.

 

I never use mine. But it's nice to know I can when I want to

 

Anything hotter than 80F, my A/C is on.

Funny how the lady who owned it before me paid $2000 to have it installed, and I just ripped it out like it was nothing.

 

now rip out the power steering.

you can also get the pulley on your crank (i think its called ctr) so that you just have a slot for your alternator

dont forget to put aside some money for trips to 7-11 for drinks when your hot

I'm going to pull out the power steering this weekend.

I'm not sure abou the CTR crank, I've read some stuff on here that suggests its better to just keep stock crank.

 

i am planning to take out my A/C as well, but dont have much time now, BUT i do have one question....do you have to remove the front bumper?? or does it just make life easier....
