Weapon R Coolant/windshield washer tank

Legacy777 · 05-14-2006, 11:55 PM

Just curious if anyone is running this, and if they have some additional pictures/dimensions then what's on Weapon R's website

Here's a pic

I'm interested in it because the turbo legacies have a coolant tank on the back side of the intake manifold, which interferes with mounting an intercooler.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Where are all of the ports for the coolant lines? Does it come with any lines or do you have to buy them? What is the resevoir sizes?

According to their site it comes with all necessary lines and fittings.....

That's what I wanted to know, and was hoping someone had one.

I've emailed Weapon R, and asked them for more pictures or a engineering type drawing. If I get any additional info, I'll past it along.

Weapon-R and "engineering" don't belong in the same sentence. Their crap is worthless garbage, imho.

Dude, keep me posted on this! Looks like it might be perfect for us turbo legacy guys n gals

Legacy777 · 05-16-2006, 07:14 PM

I got some additional pictures.

From the pictures, it looks like it's meant to replace the coolant/overflow expansion tank.

If we could get some additional fittings on the tank, I think it could work.

I dont think it'd be hard to tap the tank and add a few fittings :P

Legacy777 · 05-16-2006, 07:26 PM

The tank is just sheet metal, so either bungs need to be welded on so you can screw in NPT fittings, or the fittings need to be welded on.

tasq · 05-16-2006, 07:54 PM

Why does it have to be welded? As long at its like 1/8" thick id think itd tap just fine?

not on your life.....(unless I am missing sarcasm)...they need to be welded on bungs....

Legacy777 · 05-17-2006, 01:53 PM

No way you're going to tap 1/8" piece of sheet metal to support the hardware needed for the fittings.

Judge · 05-19-2006, 06:08 PM

So...has anyone heard from them on size...capacity etc? Man...this site is killing me......so many things to make and so little time.....

Legacy777 · 05-20-2006, 09:57 PM

They replied to me, but just gave the pictures I posted, no other info.
