SR20DETdatsun510 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 I'm gonna do this, aluminum heat shield w/ gold foil and a turbo blanket and that should prevent my MC and reservoirs from getting 2 hot Where are you going to relocate the reservoirs to? What kit is this and what Diameter is the Master?? And I still have plenty of Gold DEI foil to do a Heat Shield too. Had this planned after I get MY exhaust. :D Quote Link to comment
SR20DETdatsun510 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 My old reservoirs looked like this....I think they are Altima Clutch Reservoirs. And here are a few options: Remote Mater Cylinder Reservoirs Quote Link to comment
Topher88 Posted January 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 That's the Wilwood kit with a 1" piston on the MC I'm just using everything but the MC. My buddy got the kit but never used the reservoirs Quote Link to comment

Topher88 Posted January 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 This should work all I need is the reservoir Carpet in. Looks great shouldabeen! Very happy with your product 4 Quote Link to comment
Rustbucket Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 If at any point you yank the downpipe off again, might I suggest a proper ceramic coating? Not cheap, I know, but having it coated both inside and out, along with your heat wrap will make a world of difference - could also save the seals in your master. Exhaust and carpet look great, though! :) Quote Link to comment
SR20DETdatsun510 Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Top shit Topher! Loving it! Quote Link to comment
dennis Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Is that a nardi? I am thinking about a Personal Grinta. Also thinking about some Corbeau FX1 seats. Quote Link to comment
SR20DETdatsun510 Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 The Personal Grinta looks similar to my Mint 90's Personal Monza Wheel. I love it. Quote Link to comment
Topher88 Posted January 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Relocated the catch can so I could mount my break reservoir Trying to figure out where to put the oil filter Quote Link to comment
Topher88 Posted January 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Installed fuel rail and injectors. Also cut my catch can lines Still working out my MC Clarence issue Quote Link to comment
aintnobiscuit Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 it's looking good Topher, keep it up! Quote Link to comment
Cmac Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Just a thought for you. Troy Ermish has the master cylinders with the bleed screw on the clutch master side. Tilton makes a metal reservoir that you would have to tap your new master in order to use them. I thought about this at one point but did not pursue it. Personally I want to run the tilton pedal assembly at some point to remove all heat issues that we will encounter. Good luck and great build Quote Link to comment
Topher88 Posted February 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 I have a car builder buddy that I did some plumbing stuff on his house so he is going to install my revers mount Wilwood pedals I just picked up on ebay for $75 :) Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Trying to figure out where to put the oil filter Mount it vertical. You'll thank me every time you change the filter and don't make a mess. FWIW mount as low as you can and still get at it. Every bit helps to lower the center of gravity. 1 Quote Link to comment

Topher88 Posted February 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Thanks man! I want a Kenmari...... I keep thinking how I can sell this and get one... Is that bad? Quote Link to comment
DREWSDIME Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Not a bad idea, but you will never get back how much you put into the car if you ever sell it. Where would you get parts for the Kenmari? Quote Link to comment

Topher88 Posted February 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Well motor I would put a L28 so engine wise parts would be easy but other parts I would either pay lots on yahoo.jp or make stuff lol Quote Link to comment
Topher88 Posted February 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 I know I'll never get anywhere near what I put into the car.... It's fun to dream tho lol Quote Link to comment
bonvo Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 thaaaaaat sounds like your looking to sell Quote Link to comment
Topher88 Posted February 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Honestly ill probably never sell. No one will give me what I want and I don't get rid of things for cheap lol Quote Link to comment
aintnobiscuit Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Even if you could sell it for what you want, it would be hard to find something that will make you as happy. No smogs. Looks from people all the time. Old men in porsches telling you about how they used to have one and wish they never sold it. 300+hp in a 2000lb car. Thats a lot of shit thats hard to find without building another one by yourself. If you sold it, you'd probably always regret it. I think i would... i sold a 2 door and a 4 door a long time ago, both with l20bs and mikuni side drafts... wish i never did :) 2 Quote Link to comment
