couple questions about deleting certain parts....

well, i noticed on some website that someone had deleted their coolant reservoir bottle-(also battery relocate) but the entire left side of the engine bay looked really clean. Anyone know anything about this??

and the other delete i was wonderin if anyone knew anything about or can point me elsewhere is a swap so to say really.......but running coil packs and deleting the distributor(saw cap for it on some site)????

Any info on these would be appriciated. thanx yall

Are you trying to show off your car? you can delete the overflow tank and just let the coolant drain to the ground but I wouldnt recommend this. Just do a little reading man. I am sure you can find your answers with a little research. If I can find enough info to wire an RB motor in an S13, I am sure you can find simple stuff like that.

well this is henry schelley's ka-t s13. it looks like he is using the radiator cap for timing & he had aem pencil coils. it looked really clean too cuz the braided his entire harness in that braided mesh stuff. as far as the overflow tank, just get a circuit sports aluminum one if you really dont like the look of the stocker. and as already said above just read man, search for battery relocate, there is a ton of info about this. good luck man, just dont go too show without adding some go

That bay looks messy. Look at this RB20 swap that we did.

No prob man. Making your bay look clean is something that can be done for pretty cheap. Tucking harnesses and such.

^yeah man thats what i was thinking too, someone knew what they were doing when they built that car. i asked the booth where the car was if henry was there, cuz i wanted to ask him about his ignition system, but they said he had already split for the day. oh well, there is going to be round 2 of the red bull world drift championship in november, maybe i'll catch him then
