Fuel cell

    Thinking of chucking a fuel cell into the back of the zed. I shifted the factory fuel tank upwards to clear the diffuser and in doing so removed the rear tyre well. While it works it's not as neat a set up as it could be and more to the point there is a fair bit of unused space once you decide to lose the tyre well that I could make the most of too. I've already got to remake the filler neck so if I can get an off the shelf E85 safe tank I may as well fit that before doing the finalising I am already going to have to do anyway.

    Can fit something in the realm of 30" wide, 13" tall and 20" long.

    Something like this is pretty close and is plastic which is really neat (nice and light); http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/JAZ-Blac...827539?hash=item3f68b7fb53:g:jY0AAOSwMtxXrqWy

    (there are conflicting dimensions in that listing so I don't think the capacity is as low as that; rough calculation shows if I fit a tank of my available dimensions it'll hold about 125 litres).

    Any thoughts? pros/cons apart from dicking about getting the level sender happy and routing the neck to the factory filler point?

    Spare tyre space is useless, esp on a 2+2 unless you want to carry the spacesaver in there. Don't see what's wrong with your current tank unless you're having clearance issues and need to go to a fuel cell.
