I wanted to get an idea of how much cost/ weight savings An Al. rad would be. If you don't mind weighing it
I'm enjoying the progress!

Even though it is tiny, it is rated for 300HP. I have a Nitrous Scale in the back BRB....

7.275 LBS. (naked & dry) $259.95 I-merican @ Summit Racing. Prolly be a bit before I can get to the garage to weight the stock one.

I’ve had mine in and out a couple times and it’s going to be well over twice that.

I am interested to see how much the MX-3 one weights naked. I bet it is not too heavy without the fan's ect. on it

I wanted to wait until I actually put these on the car, but I am all excited about it. I love plumbing (Yes I know I am weird).

This may make more sense then random stolen fitting images. If not I will be putting them on the car soon, which will likely clear it up for you(s).

What's that grommet you have over your fitting? Is that a common part or something special you found? Where do you plan to mount the reservoir?

The grommets are stock they came out of the 323 master cyl. They were friction fit into the master. In this picture they would go in the two large holes facing the camera.

This photo shows the bottle and the grommets that retain it in the master cyl.

In this photo the assembly is together in it's stock configuration. The bottle friction fits into the grommets in the master and it is retained by a small screw.


I am probably going to mount the bottle to the driver side strut tower.

Looks good! I love enginuity!

That is an understatement, I have read your build log!

Had fun at my church on the week-end. Was all set to modify my Energy Suspension sway bar bushings. They were universal, but they actually directly bolted on! (That never happens) LOL (MX-3 Suspension)






Made brackets for my remote mount brake fluid reservoir.






I only have drill bits to 3/8 so I bought this little kit to enlarge the holes. I have used this kit before, it worked, but not so well on the aluminum.










Painted some nasty looking stuff.

Dude you are a whiz with cars, everything from mechanical to custom fabrication to bodywork! I'm so amazed! And omg look at how many cars you went through! It takes you like a day per car

i am absolutely amazed with the work you have done, hold on, wiping the drool off my screen, that is going to be one BAAAAAAD A********* 323 when youre done, keep up the good work, most detailed WL ive ever seen in life

Not sure my crap is drool worthy, but thanks. I have car geeked-out pretty hard on this one. (all the photo's)

I was actually a professional auto dismantler at a late model "recycling" yard for three years. I am a parts jockey at a speed shop.....again now. Dismantling cars is hard on the body. If only I could put them back togeather as fast as I can take them apart. LOL

Hey wait your just laying it on thick because you need wheel bearings pressed in

I'm always a little concerned when people use aluminum on cars. Aluminum rots so quickly when mated up with steel. Other than that, lots of good work so far.

Not much steel on my car, it is a Canadian car eh?
