Johann Posted May 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Would I have to change the Climate Control controls for a non A/C version?Also do you just block off the holes left in the evaporator?My car came with the manual AC controls. Simply don't touch the button.. Still need to open the dash to remove the last bits underneath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fromtheshadows Posted May 16, 2006 Report Share Posted May 16, 2006 Why cant you just wrap a smaller belt around the alternator, not one third but a full wrap around? Know wut I mean? Looking at it it seems like it could be done...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaze1385 Posted May 16, 2006 Report Share Posted May 16, 2006 I believe this could be squeezed in front of everything and still be behind the grill. Inlet and outlet would go above the radiator like stock. Once the factory Intercooler is gone, the condenser would be moved back against the radiator. Have even more room then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myself and a bunch of other members have done a front mount intercooler in the lower portion of the bumper with excellent results, PM me for details or search for my threads about it.

BlackT5 Posted October 16, 2006 Report Share Posted October 16, 2006 Bumping this thread up because I need some questions answered.My car is off the road and i'm starting the gt35r conversion.Now, I took out the stock IC yesterday in hopes of making room from my FMIC, but i soon realised that you don't gain any room by removing the IC because of the way the brackets are welded to the condensor.I really have two options if I want the new IC to fit properly. 1) Fab some brackets and move the whole radiator/condensor/fan assembly bac an inch or so. This might not work all that well since the fan is already pretty close to the motor.2) Remove the AC condensor. I don't mind going this route becasue I only use my AC maybe once a year when I go on vacation. Now, i'm unsure what will happen if someone engages the auto climate control and the AC kicks in while the condensor is missing and the systems is not pressurized.Thoughts?
