Surge tank designed to be fitted under the drivers rear floor pan of any model skyline.

Requires hicas removal.

Basicly I fabricated this Tank about 3 weeks ago for a mate who no longer has his gtr, since he never paid for it it's being posted back to me this week ( long story but the car had been damaged)

- 3 fittings on the tank they are -6 male for inlet from lift pump, return from rail and overflow back to main tank

- 2 fittings for pump feeds, -10 male

- 2 welded on 044 mounts

- all assosiated fragola push together fittings to mount the 2 pumps and get in and out of the tank. So 3 -6 push on straight fittings, 2 -10 couplings, 2 044 inlet fittings.

- tank has an internal scavenging section for the pumps to draw from which is roughly 1.5L and the upper section is about 2L which is foam filled.

- has welded on lug mounts so requires some simple brackets to hold it in place under the car.

- designed to use twin 044's can block off one feed though

I tested it to 120psi with water and comp air built from quality alloy plate 4mm thickness.

I'm going to ask $890 including postage with all the fittings ready to install.

I'll take a few photos when I get it back this week.

Located in Sydney inspections welcome.

The fittings alone are over $200 worth from earls.

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
