Who needs Aluminum Overflow Tanks??? - Page 2 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

NiGHTS · 01-16-2008, 01:49 PM

let me know when the group buy goes thru im in.

sleepinsilvia23 · 01-16-2008, 05:20 PM

I mean i cant speak for everybodys interest but personally if you offered some other simple, resonable priced parts like radiator cooling panels or skid plates i would be interested in buying one. Cuz to my knowledge there arent very many companies that offer cheaper ones.

Just more ideas for you guys, and it would also work out well for me cuz in the near future i plan on coming to the shop and gettin an alignment and to hopefully check out the place.

S.Milone · 01-16-2008, 05:32 PM

Thanks for the Ideas. Def stop by the shop and check it out as well. Always have some cool cars. Are GS400 Race Car and S13 are pretty sweet as well.

LongGrain · 01-16-2008, 05:46 PM

im interested.

steve_o1989 · 01-16-2008, 09:10 PM

Like mentioned, Radiator cooling panel and skidplate maybe heat sheilds for the master cylinder, some braces (fender, underbody) wouldn't be a bad idea. Really it depends on how involved you are willing to get with fabricating, the options are limitless if you let them be.

I would be interested in an overflow tank depending on the design.

Mister.E · 01-16-2008, 11:06 PM

one thing i would also be interested in is a heat shield for aftermarket manifolds on an SR20. need something to keep that master cylinder from overheating.

S14 Aluminum Overflow Tanks??? I have never seen it.

BINGO! Logan said it best. The sandblasted/unfinished aluminum has a real feel to it. It looks more custom and imo can go with anyone's setup. Let the end user decide whether to powdercoat or polish it. I agree that polished is a little too blingy.

btw - i need one so you can count me in.

hotlavaflow · 01-17-2008, 07:40 AM

I've been looking for one so let's get it going. S13 here. Don't want it polished either.

Rnz520 · 01-17-2008, 08:32 AM

If you have a good price I am in.

S14-vietusmc · 01-17-2008, 08:35 AM

S14, dont leave us out....

S.Milone · 01-17-2008, 10:48 AM

Id like to glass bead blast them it will give it a cool look.

lonelydrifter · 01-17-2008, 11:40 AM

Do It! So I Can Buy One!!

i'd go for an s14 one but only if it adds capability. the s14 tank doesn't crack so there's really no reason to replace it (except bling factor). if you added a swirl pot that was pre-plumbed and was tucked away with the overflow tank, i'd be down for one.

dropemlow · 01-17-2008, 01:34 PM

whats the time fram we are looking at on this? i need to get one in the next month, no later.

Joshua_S · 01-17-2008, 11:22 PM

i need one like yesterday!

thedecapitator · 01-17-2008, 11:46 PM

count me in!!! i need one badly for s13!! im tired of getting a lot of used shit

KiLLeR2001 · 01-18-2008, 12:10 AM

my plastic overflow tank has some cracks in it at the top so I'm due for a new one... s13.

*DALAZ_68* · 01-18-2008, 01:31 PM

i basically need something that fits without having to mod something...

preferably with a glass window on the side to view fluid level...
ive seen the ones with the indicator on the outside like a tube...doesnt look clean to me IMO...but i wont deny it works...

midland300 · 01-18-2008, 05:51 PM

I'd interested in one for a s13.

S.Milone · 01-21-2008, 10:47 AM

Mister.E · 04-09-2008, 07:33 PM

I'm also very interested in one with a breather. Perhaps if you have access to a powder coating machine, add custom colors (for a few extra $, of couse) as an option. I'll take Yashio Factory pink :P . If the price and product are right, consider me a buyer! Hopefully we'll see a product come out of all this.

w0nderbr3ad · 04-09-2008, 11:42 PM

I am definately in the market for one. My current autozone one lacks support other than zipties.

scottie · 04-10-2008, 09:04 AM

I need one. If you can make one a little cooler than the others out there, im all for it. I have an S13.

Scott

los_inc · 04-10-2008, 10:10 AM

i would be down to get one my stock one has been developing a couple of hair line cracks so i'm due for a new one any day now
thanks again

krazydriver · 05-08-2008, 08:34 PM

Figured i'd get this back up where everyone could see it.

I'm definitely down for an s13 coolant tank.
was leaning into the engine bay the other day.... got a bit too much weight on mine and cracked mine. Now i've got coolant leaking all over from it.
So an aluminum tank would be great!

deuceforty · 05-08-2008, 08:42 PM

im interested in an s14 one

mifesto · 05-14-2008, 07:03 AM

any update? i think mine has a tiny leak.
