Cure for swamp butt

 

^might want to see a Doctor for that.

Side affects, yes, less drag on the crank, less wieght on the front end and a cleaner engine bay.

 

Wicked cheers guys!!

 

Is it as easy as just removing the pump and belt like on skylines etc or do you have to get a shorter belt?

 

You have to get a shorter belt and you should cap off the end of the lines going into the firewall.

 

Wicked! Anychance you know the length of the belt off hand?

 

bump, anyone?

 

Incase anyone comes across this for future ref

I just finished removing the aircon and its actually really easy.
I used the belt from a evo 7 RS without A/C got it from a parts shop here.

Most pain in the **** part is putting the belt back on which isnt really anything just fiddly and the other pain in the *** part is i had to remove a bolt from the exhaust to get the A/C bracket off. (after trying to get the bracket bolt off with a spanner.... i snapped the spanner doh!)
