This reservoir features a machined cap that is available with or without venting, -8 ORB return, -10 ORB feed and an in house designed site glass to easily check your fluid level. S-Max also incorporated a proprietary return baffle to reduce aeration and help keep a positive flow. The reservoir measures 6.5“ tall by 3” in diameter with an operation fluid volume of 12 oz. The reservoir features S-Max's exclusive 360 Degree mounting solution for ease of installation.

Pics of this installed? My turbo set up doesn't allow for the oem reservoir, this looks like a good alrenative!

What car do you have? I have installed it on an s chassis and z33 with minimal work. I will look for pictures.

Z33@S-MAX · 01-18-2012, 01:54 PM

BTW... We have fittings for the reservoir that go to AN or barb... let me know what you may need

+1 on a s13...

onehundredoctane · 01-18-2012, 02:08 PM

S13, SR20DET with top mount turbo set up. AN fittings work with this you say? ARESUM!

I think what you have here will work for me, here's what I'm working with for reference.

Planning on mounting the power steering pump down where the a/c compressor should be, so there will be plenty of room to mount it on the frame rail.

The frame rail or the back right corner should work fine

Z33@S-MAX · 01-18-2012, 02:30 PM

The bracket spins 360 Deg. and can be flipped.

Exact size and different fittings

First small batch of production pieces.

naw_speed · 01-19-2012, 08:28 AM

very nice. a little pricey but from the looks of the crafsman ship i'm sure it's well worth it.. i'm am definitely impressed.. like the site glass. most would have went with the crapy side mounted plastic tube and the thing would have ended up leaking after a month of use... almost tempted to get one cause it looks better than my OE crap.

onehundredoctane · 01-19-2012, 08:59 AM

Awesome, thanks for the more details shots! Can't wait to order mine!

*kognition* · 01-19-2012, 01:45 PM

Very nice indeed.

riptor · 01-20-2012, 01:07 PM

The reservoir has threaded bungs; you can see in the pictures that you can use AN or barbed fittings.

sileight_04 · 01-31-2012, 10:07 PM

Pm me a price for it shipped to 79936 with a -10an orb to -10an and a -8an orb to -6. I already have -6an lines plumbed

Om1kron · 01-31-2012, 11:47 PM

Definitely interested, will favorite this. Not a vital piece that I need but who doesn't love more AN hoses in their bays?

I have fitting that do not require AN lines. They are ORB to Barb so you can use stock or aftermarket rubber hose for the pump feed.

man that thing is sex

BoostinIX · 05-14-2012, 04:51 AM

Any plans to sell a line kit with this?
