Car troubles

Well today turned out to not be the best in the K-swap world. This morning I got a phone call saying that I needed to get the fuel feeder line for an RSX type-S. I thought I wouldn’t need it because my stock D17 ones should work fine. However, those lines had to be cut for the turbo kit’s throttle injectors. Either way, I had them overnighted, so they’ll be here tomorrow morning.

That was bad news, but later came the really stupid crap. I found out the following:


  • The radiator fan didn’t fit, so I have to buy a universal 12″ slim fan.
  • The throttle cable didn’t work, so my stock one was custom-fitted.
  • The battery will not fit up front.

The battery issue is the one that is bothering me right now. I have a couple options. First, I can get a battery relocating kit and move it to the trunk. Second, I can have a mount and tie completely custom fabricated and keep it up front on the driver’s side. I would really rather keep it under the hood, but it is so much more expensive and time consuming. I’m just worried about all my stereo stuff getting interference.

I’ll keep you posted.
