Default New Coolant Overflow Tank by Mr. Saikou

So i have been working with Mr. S for a few weeks getting the dimensions and overal volume where they need to be to work well with the s2k! As you migth be able to tell its not just a simple bolt on to the OEM bracket. When i get mine in ill post up some pictures after i get a bracket made up. I recomend at least talking with him if you are interested in an oil catch can or coolant overflow. He is very responsive and helpful!

Coolant overflow: I had him powdercoat the cap black. He loved the red so much he took a picture before doing so

I plan on making a single bracket that will hold both the occ and overflow. Ill probably give the dimensions to saikou so he can make them up...

Well i came up with a bracket that works pretty well, had it all set and in place and then i realized i had the tank up to high so the hood wouldnt close doh! So after cutting down the bracket a little more the OCC and overflow tank look pretty good Although the way i have the bracket made i had to use quite a few magic words to get the hardware on lol. I will remake the bracket over the winter making it nice nice. Also the tank was rubbing a little on the metal line pictured below so i wrapped it. When i make the new bracket i will try to move the tank away from this line.

Well my pictures are taking forever to upload ill add them tomorrow...

The part was packaged very nicely, lots of cushion.





Here is what the bracket looks like, pretty simple... Mounts in the OEM bracket location




A few magic words later...







The wrapped line...




So yea im pretty happy with it...
