Thanks! I was looking at the Weapon-R tank... but I'm really looking for something square to match the ps tank. That's why I'm thinking I might just buy another ps tank and modify it to work as a coolant tank. Should be easy enough to modify the fittings and add a sight tube into the side.

That's cool just thought I could help.. If you do make the Coolant tank are you guys going to sale them?

Also I love your ARC catch can setup. I want to do mine with black lines. If you can, could you pm what you bought to swap the two out.

Thanks

Yeah, we'll eventually sell em... between all the racing and shows though, we've been pretty busy lately, so who knows when we'll get to making tanks.

The lines on my ARC catch can is Earls Pro-lite hose.

Unfortunately I don't know the sizes and lengths since I changed them out over a year ago. Just measure the nipples on the catch can... I think it's -12 and -8, but like I said, I'm not sure.

Today I went to the Redline Time Attack practice day, and ran my new track setup - WORK XT7's with Nitto NT-01 tires. I'll be running these at every event that allows it (some require a 150 or higher tread wear to compete in street - NT-01's have 100 tread wear).

While I like the concave the spokes have, I'm not used to seeing the wheels with no lip. Plus, I think when I need to change out the tires I'm going to powder coat these wheels matte black too... I like the way the XD9's look.

The Nitto NT-01 tires are awesome. I've been running the NT-05's, and thought they were sticky, but the NT-01's grip like crazy. Today I never really pushed the tires as hard as I could have, partially because I was on Big Willow (which is real fast), and partially because I was still driving em like they were the NT-05's. Overall, I'm very happy with both sets of tires

Specs on the XT-7 wheels/tires you have on that setup. I've got them 18x9.5 on my sedan and am wondering what you've got?

18x9.5 all around... +12 rear, +20 front, with 275/40, 245/40 tires. Unfortunately 9.5 is the widest they have on these, and I didn't want 8.5, so I just got 4 of the same.

Thanks... but what's tomorrow???

EDIT: You must be talking about the track? We were going to stay and compete tomorrow since the car show was scheduled to be there as well, but they canceled the show and moved it to November I think.
