garrygt Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Wanting to really tidy up my engine bay before i put my engine in, what pipes etc can i take out that i dont need?Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lew91 Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 I've taken out any thing and everything to do with the ACAlso removed the fuel filter and replaced it with an inline one. Charcoal canister can go but remember to put a valve on it. I'm removing ABS and PAS as well. Battery can go in the boot if needs be. Think there's a few other bits but can't think of any more off the top of my head. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Ive done almost as much as Lew ^^ but PAS is going back in before my car goes on the roads. ABS looks really untidy in Starlets. You can also relocate the washer bottle to the boot and relocate the coolant expansion tank to the back of the bay or whatever. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
garrygt Posted May 26, 2013 Author Share Posted May 26, 2013 Ahright ok, dont have abs and i dont want to take my pas out as parking would be a nightmare. Was goin to take the charcoal canister off but how do you mean a valve? Cheers for the help Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lew91 Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 I'd say a nice touch on the washer bottle/expansion bottle with the ep82's is to do as "turbo grant" has done and make a nice ally one. Looks the dogs dangleys in the GT's Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lew91 Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Uni flow valve, one of these Quote Link to post Share on other sites
garrygt Posted May 26, 2013 Author Share Posted May 26, 2013 Ahright i can get one of them no bother. Haha i wish i could make one of them but i cant weld aluminium and it would cost a fortune to make. Just away to pay for my engine build so not wantin to spend more money lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lew91 Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Have a word with grant mate he might do you one cheap. Would get an inline fuel filter tho, race tech do them or there's a few on eBay. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
garrygt Posted May 26, 2013 Author Share Posted May 26, 2013 Yeah i will go drop him a pm. Provs just get one from racetech. Where did you fit urs? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Weyro Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 for the inline filter would you just cut the pipes off the old filter, and stick the new one in between the two cut ends? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lew91 Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 I haven't got round to fitting mine yet but all I'll be doing is is putting it slap bang in the middle of where it was, as close to the feed as possible tho. Ricky can also supply the fittings and braided lines if needs be, I'm pretty sure he does different colours to suit your set up to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
