Well I guess i have another question lol. Installing my fmic (greddy type-m kit) i have to drill a hole through my battery tray. I was just wondering where you guys relocated your windshield wiper fluid?

Thanks,Alex

I left mine where it was and just removed the one support bracket. With a miata battery in place, it fits snug.

Word!

With that said to the OP: If you plan on drag racing or competting with the car, ensure you get thick tiedown rods so they don't gig you at tech inspection :D

i got both in the back.... i just pretty much cut the connector off the pump and extend it to the back. both the front washer and rear washer (hatch back). also i just run a long washer hose to the back as well. since i dont have rear wiper i just use the rear washer button for intercooler spray. just find a plastic square bottle and use self tapper screw and L bracket to keep it secure. drill 2 small hole to fit the pump.

On my first S14, I think I just turned it sideways on the same bracket and it worked fine. My current S14 has a Greddy LS Spec, and the kit actually came with resovoir relocation brackets. Maybe you can track down a relocation kit from somewhere.

I just took mine out completely. I don't remember why, probably just because I was too lazy to put it back in. Anyways, I haven't had a situation where I desperately needed to wash my windows while on the go.
