Nice little mod made to my supra - mark3 - 09-08-2019

I have a nice shiny stainless steel slam panel but with hole for coolant expansion bottle, and as i had sitting around from my 1st Supra a slam panel with NO expansion bottle hole i thought i may as well use it, but had to relocate the expansion bottle first.

I found a two stroke oil mixing bottle was the perfect size for this and with just over 1 litre capacity its easily big enough to take the 0.5 litre of expanded coolant when hot.

Then i bought me a very nice self sealing hose connector for the inlet/outlet (but at £25.44 delivered it wasnt bl00dy cheap) and fitted this to the bottom of the bottle as opposed to the side so i get to use more of the bottle capacity

Made up an overflow for the top

Nice little mod mate,

maybe spray it black with tinting spray? so you can see whats in it but it hides itself better?
