GTM window washer after turbo install

SharpByCoop · 03-03-2013, 08:10 PM

I wasn't even aware GTM built a replacement. LOL! I ended up modifying an aluminum water bottle to fit the pump and stuck it in between the intercooler piping.

You can laugh or cry, but it works well.

Can you be a little more specific about the bracket? I am looking into picking up one of those GTM Washer Bottles, but I need a GOOd solution for installation. If possible, I would like to mirror your installation.

Why is there a clamp on the rubber overflow hose from the radiator?

Dang, my blow off valves are right in the way

DIGItonium · 03-28-2013, 08:00 AM

Awesome! Exactly where I imagined it to be with all that extra space. Might have to add that to my wishlist.

roplusbee · 04-06-2013, 06:53 PM

I asked about the washer reservoir in the GTM MHI TT thread and they stated that the unit comes without a bracket. There is a reason that I haven't bought anything from GTM, even if they are the only ones with a given platform-specific solution. I will either deal without the washer reservoir (I have this long) or find another solution.

EDIT: There is more to it, but it just seems that you can't get a straight answer from a lot of people these days. That is why I am working with the companies and providers listed in my sig!

I got GTMs reservoir and installed it on the stock location with a custom bracket. Lots of space in there with the nismo bumper. Not sure how it would fit with other. To fill it up I routed a hose to the stock fill up location. I'll see if I can find pictures.

Here it is:

roplusbee · 04-07-2013, 11:36 AM

Thanks Ron. I am going to try to find another solution, but if I have to buy it from GTM, I will. If it were up to me, they would never get a dime of my money.

Ron · 04-07-2013, 12:39 PM

Wait, I feel like I am missing something? Why the hate towards GTM?

I am not hating. I just rather deal with people that I have been dealing with before. They give it to you straight without ambiguous or evasive answers. I am not knocking GTM, I just wouldn't mess with them if I had another option.
