Swapped in a new tranny with a welded MSP limited slip diff and a fidanza flywheel with a ACT clutch. Well almost ran out of time on Saturday as I had to get to work on sunday. Will put it all back together later this week or weekend. In the mean time I'm using Bigg-Tim's truck.

Thanks Tim for the use of the truck.

w00t bringin' the thread back to life! I finally installed my WeaponR coolant catch tank after making a custom mounting bracket. I'm glad to have finally gotten the stocker out o there because it was squishing my air filter between it and the back of the headlight. Oh yeah, you can also see the MSP heatshield

Not bad, that blue seems to match the intake well. Looks like it would go well with my oil cap.

hey Magnum, did you put a little "straw" inside the can to pull the coolant back in when it is needed?

Yeah, I went and got some 1/4" OD piping and stuck it down in there - the other end just barely touches the bottom of the tank. I sealed the edges around the tube with some sealant glue stuff I found as well. I haven't been able to drive around yet so I hope the bracket I made will hold up (it should because its 1/8" aluminum)

Thanks man! Not exactly custom (or real CF), they were sold on Ebay a few years ago and then disappeared from the market.
