Thread: Coolant Resorvoir Relocation.

So I drive a 98 GTP, but 99 was the year the coolant resorvoir was relocated making intakes more efficient. I'm buying a new resorvoir and relocating it to the same place it is in a 99. My question: should I just buy the resorvoir and bolts to mount it, or more? Will I need new hoses so they will reach the new location? New coolant hose seals? Or will my current ones work with the relocation? Oodles of thanks to the person who can answer this for me .

EDIT: I'm also doing new coolant elbows and a 180* t-stat when I do this. Coolant is also being flushed.

Alright, great. So just the 99 coolant resorvoir was needed?

You're a lucky bastard and this is the cost effective way for me to do it ;p.

I just set mine up on the strut tower and got my drill out and drilled 2 holes and bolted it up I had to cut my overflow line since it was to long.

Best ecomonic way to do it. Hit a JY, get the bottle, hose and the little white piece that the bottom of the bottle sits on. They charge you peanuts for the bottle and you smile. Then put the white thing on your car, hold the bottle in place at the top and drill your two holes for bolts.
