Hello eddie
Feel free to use the pics. I ditched the AC coz the plan was to remove as much as poss from the engine bay.
My car was apart for a long time. In fact it came to pieces the day after Jap show in OCT and went back on the road in Feb. I had lots of help from Gary(G & A Racing developments) with sorting thorugh my ideas and what i wanted from the set up. He/We spent hours moving things around to get the desired effect.

The result was pretty good. I get charge temps of a few deg over ambiant and very stable water temps. Also along the way we re designed the intake to do what we wanted (inc ducts etc) and seated everything so it could perform the best. The engine bay aint just pretty (Check the signature below). :3gears-rh
I believe it has both function and form :rollin  :rollin
Joking aside Iwill try and dig some pics out for you tonight and mail them to you but Shaun probaly has them  ;)

I do some where, and they are loads of help :) Just need to get my air temps down more. Looking at maybe 2 k&n filters and some samco hose with t-peices off for each of the blow off valves. It just sucking hot air off the rad at the min.

Hi guys

Thanks for all your help and images, today I managed to relocate the rad and the AC and install the trust FMIC.
Just took out the rad again so I could spray the brackets.
I found the job a little fiddly but nothing too hard:)

My radiator seems to sit quite upright I may tilt it a little more yet, we shall see.
I will post some pics of the install.

DOnt surpose anyone has any blue hose I can  buy of them I need to join the IC pipes as I have had to fabricate the pipes my self out of two sets.

Thanks agian I owe you two big time.

Cheers

O by the way talking about air filters,
I have managed to relocate mine underneath the drivers side head lights, loads of room as I only have one oil cooler on the passenger side and with the new cwest bumper they will be getting loads of cool air I will take some pics of this also.

sfs performace and demon tweeks do the pipe joiners, work out around 5 quid each !

Mines an R2, so it has 2 oil coolers, makes it a bit harder !
