HIIC: "Got This In The Mail Today" Thread
I was also looking at the chase bays radiator.
It's also dual pass 10x28, around the same price.You could go straight to griffin and probably order direct. They quoted me
a tad more for a custom unit with the inlet outlet where I wanted it.

It's one of the tucked radiators that the Honda guys use to put the radiator in the condenser area. It's made by griffin: 9x24

It has 1.25 necks. I plan to put on 1.5 necks later. I'm a bit scared to mess with the end tank after I use it though. I'm wondering if the smaller inlet will be an issue. All I know is that I have bad luck welding on aluminum when it's dirty.
It's dual pass so I'm worried that the water pump won't put out the required pressure. I'll find out the hard way. I know the Evo guys run 10an hoses and they have 1.4 stock and they seem to run okay.

Brembo Calipers JUST came in!!! I'm so excited to get these on. I should've forked over the cash for the expedited shipping on the rotors, pads, SS brake lines and brake fluid. Oh well, looks like that saying about patience being some kinda virtue will be put to the test.

past month goodies!
Eibach F/R Sways, Perrin end links & crank pulley. Sways and End links are coming up on two week check up, need to regrease and retorque... making funny noises. The pulley was a pita to install. 3hrs, broken tq wrench rented from oreillys, snapped 1/2 to 3/8in adapter, trip to store to buy 22mm 1/2in socket, and a helping hand to loosen nut that was over torqued like a **** and everything was good.. BTW not having a belt tool sucked!

FMS TMIC, installed last night (3hrs total). Fairly simple vs my expectations cause of horror stories I read about not having instructions, leaks, quality of paint, and having to tap stuff. No issues, Full 1-4 pullS and no leaks, No tapping, doesn't lean to one side, paint never rubbed off, fins all in place, SMOOTH INSTALL. Would do this install again before I attempt to do another crank pulley install. If anyone here plans on getting one of these and needs help, lemme know!
