Default anyone ever fitted

a spec r remote power steering tank?

ive just shelled out on one for my94 sti wagon as my oem one is leaking form the doughnut at the bottom and is looking a bit rough around the edges anyway. the only problem being i didnt realise it was remote tank and therefore doesnt fit on to the top of the original pump, anyone got any ideas how these fit without any problems with leaks and stuff.

any help appreciated

Change the o-ring in the bottom(£1) and paint the old tank(£4),much cheaper!

yeh i know but thats boring, i wanted something to look good plus i believe from research you need to mount the tank remotely in order to fit a larger inlet pie for bigger turbo.

anyway i have the tank already and it seems a shame to not use it

I fitted one, TBH I wasnt that impresed with it. Was a nightmare getting it to seal even with new o rings.

It was much eaiser to get the parts of a later model and use that and much cheeper.
