All those pretty lines and then a quick disconnect type fitting?

I have found those leaking multiple times.

Hell yeah, that should be well more than enough lol. I'm using the stock front tank now and I think it's like 3/4 gallon or something and it lasts me quite a while. You'll be just fine lol.

I love your whole car, so I'm not surprised that I'd like the tank lol.

Wow, hard to believe it's been a year since I last posted up to this thread. Well, I've added a few goodies this year. I'll post up a few pics in the next day or so. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

First off is my decision to pull my turbo manifold and hot side to send off for custom Inconel heat shielding. Beautiful result and highly functional. I highly recommend the folks at Alloy Racing Covers in Anaheim. Also plumbed in a couple of EGT bungs while I had it all disassembled.

Secondly, I shaved the air pump bracket off of my front housing and nearly missed Sevenstock due to leaks... a long story, but it's fixed.

Took advantage of having Tri-Point Engineering at Sevenstock to finally order their incredible front sway bar that I've had my eyes on now for a couple of years and got her installed. The bar is SO badass!!

Finally, added a little bling to my door sills. Chrome door latches and some cool vinyl from Turbojeff. Easy to install and really cleans up the door sill.

He has plenty of sets available and ready to ship. Check him out in the new product development area on the OTHER forum

Good grief! Talk about attention to detail LOL. Looks fantastic, as always!

Thanks Speedjunkie. Yea, I'm running out of ideas, so I think the car is pretty close to completion. A few details here and there still that need to be completed, but I need to find a new project soon to occupy my mind (and time). We'll see!

Interesting note on my water tank, I filled it off earlier this month before leaving Phoenix for Sevenstock and the tank lasted until I rolled into the hotel near California Speedway. That's a five hour drive. Now granted, a lot of the trip was cruising (i.e., out of boost), but there were enough "boosted" portions on the freeway to keep a smile on your face

Good indicator of capacity.

I love this car. The color is great, the engine bay is great, the thousands of little OCD details are great, and it all adds up to a beautiful package. The stance and wheel fitment are just right, aggressive without looking broken like a dorifto car. Every time I see a picture of it, I reflexively right click->save as without even thinking about it

Wow, thanks for that compliment. It's been a 12 year labor of love building on some of the best of designs from this community and adding in my own purpose-built ideas. I've had a great time doing it. May need to look for another project soon to ad to the mix. Right now, garage space is the limiting factor. We'll see!

Another new small mod. Added the IRP Master Cylinder brace

RCCAZ 1 · 11-24-2014, 03:41 PM

A couple of new additions in the past few months. First off, added EGT bungs and probes to my turbo manifold along with interior gauges. Front housing is monitored by the left gauge shown, rear housing by the right gauge. Finally, my fabricated fire extinguisher bracket similar to the Sakebomb design, but wider to accommodate my aftermarket Bride seat rail. Mount design incorporates the DRAKE bottle mount, readily available on Ebay.

Open for operational monitoring

Closed and hidden when not in use

Custom bottle mount
