Idea for the Lambo before it’s destroyed!

[aeffertz]

I’m not sure how well versed you guys are in automotive stuff but I think it could be a cool LTT video if you ripped out the stock Civic radiator and replaced the the cooling system with PC water cool parts to see if you could cool it without the engine over heating. 

 

PC fans, radiators and such. I think it could be a really fun video!

That would be cool but water cooling rads are not designed for that kind of pressure and would likely pop quickly.

I think they'd be more likely to use the civic radiator to cool a PC than the other way around.  At least that probably wouldn't blow up, and you could call it tech.

You would be correct. A D5 pump only puts out about 5 or 6 psi at maybe 35-40 degrees C. Your average vehicle cooling system pressure is about 15 psi at 100 degrees C. Shit will go downhill very fast and you will probably throw a connecting rod through your oil pan.

 

Edit: not to mention the galvanic corrosion would absolutely destroy the block and the radiator if it some how managed to survive the heat and pressure. You ever see a steel bolt in an aluminium assembly or frame. Completely siezes together with no time at all.

Absolutely. Watching engines rip them selves apart is wicked to watch. Especially with a 600 shot of NOS on some crappy honda 4 banger.....I have done some horrible things to perfectly good cars...

MANY people want to see it parted out, sold, blown up, shot, run over. Although these ideas are run, keep in mind that the car is Nicky V's last piece of art. You know, from ya mothers favorite house guest. They should hang it on the wall like some businesses do

Go mythbusters style, on the range with so much C4 that it will just turn to dust.

That's true, but it's already too late to preserve it.  It was destroyed at LTX - hitting it with a tank wouldn't change anything.

You can preserve it, its like a petrified car at this point

Well how about this: Get a professional to install a roll cage, get a team together and race at 24 Hours of Lemons.

I hope that's not a genuine Countach they have ruined.

The car had issues though.

 '74??? Holy shit it was an early one too. The rear spoiler makes it look like an 80's one. The man is a vandal.
