Has anyone cut the wheel well out of a 1200 sedan and run an r31 tank? Anyone running something other than the fatory tank?
Also if someone could give me the approximate dimensions of the r31 tank that would be great, I tried searching but couldn’t really turn up much.

Cheers

Ha was just talking about this with a mate last night. Going to measure a R31 Pintara tank today (sedan) will let you know bit later.

cool cheers
Are wagon and sedan tanks the same?

Nah wagon are heaps bigger dude.

hmmm damn
I might have to go hunting at the wreckers with a tape measure

Read somewhere on here about this swap. Am I right in thinking the spare in the R31 is on the side somewhere, so no wheel well?
Slightly off topic, is there a way of retro fitting a surge tank into an existing tank?

Hey guys just wanted to drag this up again. I've found a R31 wagon at a wreckers here but its in the car and they won't let me head out into the yard to measure it (some bullsh1t health and safety thing)
So I was wondering if someone who has a wagon tank could please measure the size (width x length x height) for me, it would be much appreciated!

Will measure it today mate i totally forgot and got a new job so life's a bit busier now. Just writing it on my hand now back this arvo. Reckon you would be better off with a sedan tank if any but.

really, whats the difference between the sedan and wagon ones?
I just thought the wagon one was the one to use as the that seems to be what the ute boys use. I have no knowledge of R31's so only info I have is from the few pictures that i've seen of the setups in utes.
Thanks for measuring by the way

wagon tanks are too wide to fit im pretty sure, as they are wider than sedan ones. due to the wagon having the spare in the floor above the tank, so the tank isnt as high in the wagon as the sedan

to use an r31 sedan tank in a 1200 sedan you need to cut the spare wheel well out and then the tank sits slightly up into the boot
