Passenger coolant line and some of the fuel lines



Oh yeah all hooked up



My Dual Catch can lines ran



Found these sick fittings that match my AN ones perfectly



Another pic of the lines ran to the expansion tank



Line ran from the Radiator to the Coolant tank



Big *** Radiator lines



Mounted my oil filter in the back near the brakes.. Clean and out of the way



A full pic off everything ran.. Looking good I must say



All of it is coming together



I also mounted up my Status Racing seat to check the fit.. Looks good



This view is so sick.. Next is to install my Carbon Fiber door panels and floor boards... Should look sick when done



God I can't wait to rip on you.. oh yes



I also got some goods for out side the car..



Love this hood. went with the 07 cause I love that hump. I will color match this hood and leave the vents CF..



I also have this Coming in the mail TS diffuser and some new side skirts..

So that is it for now.. I should be getting some stuff in the mail and the next phase is exhaust so should be heading out that way in a couple of weeks..

Also I will post amount later.. Thanks guys

Everything looks great except for the tires. That can't be safe.

Keep up the good work!

^^agree. Why is stretching a 245 on a 11" rim a good thing? The rest of the build is bad *** though.

Thanks guys,, I guess you can say its more of a form then function thing. The 19s setup is just used for shows that I am not drifting at or just driving around town.. For marketing the DPE Wheels. The stretch will not hurt any.. I used to run a 245/35 on 11s on the rear before and daily it that why.. I als have ran a 225/40 on a 18x11 -2 before.. Its the over all look..

For my drift setup I will be running 18x9.5 -20 on a 245/35 and a 18x12 -10 on a 265/35 or 275/35

hahaha That is a plan and thanks trying my best to do it right the first time. Sometimes I feel it could be a lot better but we will make changes as we go.

Major props on all the hard work! Very well put together and great attention to detail.

My only issue is the stretched tires...I HATE that look. Just run a narrower wheel.

Sorry, everything was fine till I saw the tires mounted on the wheels. I don't know what it is, but seeing a tire stretched onto a rim like that just drives me nuts. Even more than seeing someone run a 315 on a 9" wide rim.

I just don't get it. I know there are different styles and tastes, and I'm all for that, but I don't get modding the car to make it perform worse than before. Stretching a tire like that makes it perform horribly and is just begging for a blowout.

Rant's over, sorry.

So much nice work and then stupid stretched tries

Oh well... why'd you feel the need to change the lines on the slave?

Its all good you can Rant. Some things bug me a lot when I see other builds to but like you said different styles and tastes.

If I was going to run these wheels as a daily I would defiantly run bigger tires and drop the wheel width. But like I stated before these 19s are just for show/marketing for DPE Wheels, so the only time you will see me on these will be at shows I am not drifting at.

Now with that being said I will run a 18x12 setup on my drift wheels on 275/35 tires, That might also send you into a rant but its the style I like and promise me they will not pop or have a blowout.. Shoot the pic below is of Mad Mike a Pro drifter that runs 18x12s on a 265 or 275 and has around 800hp so I think I will be good..

Well I changed the lines cause I am running the Chase bays clutch line kit that mounts up to my (350z) clutch master.. And also includes a bleeder line..
