I wouldn't waste my money that's just me personally. They are a good company though. Not gonna lie I have their fmic, downpipe, radiator, and exhaust all work great except the bov, which was kinda expected anyway. But its not like that can really go wrong so if you want it I would say go for it.

I just don't see the point in buying one though. No coolant ever even goes to my overflow

Iunno if that one is any good. I bought the Circuit Sports one and I love it.

If yours is needing replaced, then ya its cheaper than new oem ones that I have seen lol. I think $60 is a little crazy which makes $80 seems crazier for a simple device, but the CS ones have some awesome looking welds.

yea... my plastic coolant tank is cracked, so it needs to be replaced. OEM is such a rip off just for a piece of plastic. I'm just still divided on whether I want to spend the money on an aluminum one (ebay, circuits sports, or weapon-r version).

I'm an engineering student, so the thought of designing a coolant tank on solidworks, and using my schools machine shop keep popping up in my head. I guess the only thing holding me back is laziness....

I was always afraid to get anything not name brand, I've heard regarding vehicles that you pretty much get what you pay for. But from some of the other comments on this thread, people aren't unimpressed with this brand's overall products. I'd say hit it up if you have the spare cash to blow and wouldn't mind accepting that it *might* not turn out well.

Best of luck man, hope it works out well.

I had a Weapon-R tank which in better quality than CS IMO, but bought brand new OEM tank becasue aluminum tank looked too flashy.

those tanks in general arent worth there price. so the cheaper the better

do It, make your own and make 50 of them lol, then sell em for $35I don't see a real difference between the ebay one and the CS one other than price, you can't really screw it up in all seriousness. I would buy the ebay one, I don't see a problem with it, but some think buying from ebay gets you a one way ticket to hell.Take a look at the ebay one, it has metal fittings on the gauge tube, the CS one looks like rubber or plastic.I tell you what, you buy the ebay one and if it falls apart on you I'll pay you the $45 (not shipping ) I give you my word.

I have the Weapon R one. Looks nicer then that and I like how it has a air purge and vent on it unlink this one.

i haven't compared the two side by side, but the cs tank is very god quality. i dont like how the weapon r tank looks, with the notched out section for the washer fluid neck. everybody complains about the brackets needing modified, but it took like 30 seconds to tweak them just a little

Finally found a picture of this coolant tank. IMO, this is the best quality coolant tank for s13 out there.

i have a circuit sport can, love it

[breadbox]

my old civic si had one. It cleaned up the bay a little, being smaller and whatnot.

[ShereKhan]

looks ugly as s***

[94_240sx]

Material on my OEM tank different than the old OEM one. I was wondering if Nissan changed the material, so it can withstand heat better.

[zeause]

buy the ebay 1 copy its design and sell em. ill give you 35 for 1!

[adrianfromthecastle]

looks ugly as s***

I agree.

That CS one is nice though... but I can't justify spending that much on just an overflow tank.

[zer0c123]

I ended up getting the circuit sports one. The fitment was alright, but I had to slightly bend the brackets and remove 2 zip ties that were holding down some wires.
