Takes some modding, when we put together my SI we found out the tank was crushed a little and we only had GSR tanks laying around. None of them worked right so we just got the correct one and saved the hassle.

did you idiots read my poor attempt at engrish??


rod came OUT OF BLOCK.....cracked front JDM ITR AC bracket.....bounced off radiator....hit ground....bounced up PUNCHED HOLE IN GAS TANK!!!

this was all at about 115 mph.....

you don't believe me? let's bet on it....

when you take engine apart....there's a 5x5 hole in the front of the block....top half of the rod is still attached to piston....can't find the bottom half....i guess that means it CAME OUT THE 5x5 HOLE IN FRONT OF BLOCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! duh


you know it's kinda like driving over something and it gets kicked up into your fenderwell and makes a big clunck....we if you drop something out of your engine at 100 plus....it is gonna bounce up....and when it did it hit the gas tank....and punctured it!

did you really just say a carbon fiber gas tank? was that a question? a statement? you're pretty incoherent.

This thread gave me a headache.

Anyway, if you're going to race you don't want a heavy big fuel tank. If you're gonna daily drive then you don't want a fuel cell. Spend the money on something else.
