Hi, I got a FD and my engine bay looks pretty sad but to start me off could you point out what these hoses are? pleae edit in paint and point out whats what but the one highlighted is whats got me stuck, sorry iam spanish and iam using a translator but i can understand pretty well.

 

the bottom one connects to the air duct that the airbox shares with the intercooler (which your missing).

im not 100% sure cos i ditched my hks intake setup years ago BUT i think your hks intakes are on backwards...

 

The top left one is the Airpump relief hose. The bottom right one is the Airpump intake hose. The airpump relief hose can sometimes make a loud MOOO sound like a cow. Here's a good way to deal with that:

There was a rumor about the airpump failing early from taking in too much warm air. I don't know if anyone ever proved it but you might want to relocate the line for the airpump down to where your intake filter is also located to get some better air.

 

Does having the air duct that the airbox missing cause anything?!

 

no, the factory airbox steals ducted air from the intercooler. You dont have a stock intercooler or airbox.

 

Wow, thanks. Is there anything else I should know from the looks of the picture?

 

your AST and Radiator dont look too happy.

and your battery is a crappy petrol station item.

 

That radiator looks old as hell. They have a tendency to crack.

The AST looks original. They also break. It is in the center of the picture with the radiator cap on it.

Replace the radiator and AST with aluminum units. You can also just eliminate the AST with the proper parts.

You probably need a coolant flush anyways.

Those hoses look poorly routed. Fix them up so they don't rub against eachother. Zip-ties and wire lomb work well.

Your engine bay needs some love... time to get dirty.

 

Very true! Thank you!

 

The ABS probably doesn't work, and the cruise control unit that is sitting in it's place on the passenger side near the firewall....should be on the driver's side.

 

Whats up with the AST?

 

IIRC, the ABS and CC positions are swapped in a RHD car.

The AST looks original, or a factory replacement...

 

su tienes mucho trabajo por ti.

 

Yea, this was a imported car from japan and was cunverted to right hand side, the job was poorly done as you can all see. But thats why I payed only 5k canadian for it.

 

I hadn't considered that it might have been a RHD to LHD conversion. I guess the brake booster threw me.
