Will a VR4 fuel tank fit in place of a V6 tank?
Lets try and keep this one on topic please.
yes it will, although the fuel pump wiring for the aux lift pump will be missing on the v6 loom
do you think that is something that can sortted out if you know what your doing?
yeh, i think its live when the main pump is live so a quick piggy back loom and roberts your mothers brotherOriginally Posted by mesobitchy
ahh, something to look into when the car is next up on the ramps
must also change the fuel feed, return and breather pipes.
don't think so, i think the connections are the sameahh, something to look into when the car is next up on the ramps

well that saves the hassle then if they are the same.
you mean they often go off?

Mazz....might I ask why the change of tank?
smaller tank and its got the "gully" thyp thing were the prop and exhaust run down the middle.
Okay, I can see where you're going with the Gulley.....but I wouldn't be worrying about that just yet. Why the smaller tank?
well im guessign the vr is a smaller tank, it must be if it had to give up room for the gully.
if i coulf find a V6 that had the same gully as the vr then i would get that, but a vr one has come up.
Ah. Well, at least you'll have the cheapest part of the entire thing done, then
yes, replacing the exhaust can be pricy!
but needs must! cant drive around with a blowing exhaust now!
you re-routing the exhaust to straighten it out and get better flow? i looked at this ages ago but in true PSB fashion i didn't bother
Paul! You got it in one
thought might as well do it if I need to get a new one.
well too right, as i said i looked into this and to be fair i think it will flow a lot better than stock, for a start you will lose 2 fairly tight 90° bends straight off, this for example in my line of work equates to the same drag as an extra 2 meters of head (how far a pump has to lift) which is a lot. now before the smart arses start saying its a gas not a liquid there fore it reacts different, i know that, this is just an example of how bends are bad for oncePaul!

And people never give the benifit of the doubt, and they wright me off for making an idea!
But yes Paul, removing to of the tight bends will give instance better flow
You need to step back remove the blinkers and look at the bigger picture. Three posts up your already moaning about the expense of re routing an exhaust. To me that will just be chicken feed compared to the rest.

Anyways. I digress and shall remove myself and my comments back into the real world
Still here somewhere........
All 4wd 8G's have the same fuel tank, so just look for any 4wd one. In the Uk though realistically a VR-4 one is the best option.
If I'm replying to your thread and helping you out, it is because I like you and want to help out your VR-4 ownership. No other reason
