IC install

[tmbg]

fabbed up some fancy brackets out of 3/16" steel, welded up for happy angles. The bottom brackets are doubled up where they meet the frame, so they're 3/8" thick, then tapped, so the bolts go through the holes in the frame and then thread into the brackets. The top brackets are bolted to the back of the bumper.

I hope those bolts are metric...

[tmbg]

they are! M8-1.25, 16mm into the IC and 30mm to the bumper and frame. Grade 8.8 even!

Very nice man. I can imagine that IC just falling off any time soon. :shock:

Actually I like your mounting points and ideas better than some others I have seen posted in the past. Very nice work. Clean, effective and well constructed. :P

Very nicely done, it looks like it fits in there just about perfectly. I'm sure that's going to both look and function great. I see some people lately buying dinkyass IC's because they want to vertical mount it right up front; LAME!

Let's see pics of the piping when you have it ready, I want to see how you are routing the pssenger side.

That looks really good!

Give me a call sometime today ;D

[FlawleZ]

Looks very nice man. Definitely a cleaner look than mine. Keep us posted on how you're routing your plumbing.

Hey...

Remember when that scooter, that's been sitting outside for 2 years, that you found in the apt's trash, just up and turned on while you were making the mounts, because rain somehow fixed it?
Also, remember when I was sitting on your stool contemplating suicide, because after I made my tranny mount solid, the damn tranny shifted while being supported by the jack.
I can't believe that I was bending a steel rod trying to put the tranny back into postition. :x

*I did not rejoice when it bolted up :!:

that scooter scared the holy fucking shit out of me.

almost as much as that terrifying picture.

[grahfz]

lol, looks like I missed a fun night

[OK85ZX]

Same IC as mine, mounted basically the same as mine, I'll try to get pics up tomorrow night, it's already been piped and to zcon and back.

kind like my setup too. i mounted right to the lower rad support though. i`m looking at some gnx type i/c. found a place that has them for under 3 bills, gonna see if i can get them wholesale. to facilitate routing them over the rad.
