I'm running the cables that came with the kit. Sadly though, they aren't working out too well for me. Right now we don't have the bracket on for them because the parking brake would randomly lock on or not release. Without the bracket, it holds the car, but BARELY. Definitely doesn't hold the car if you wanna do a burnout at the track.
I had to shorten the brackets on mine to get the brakes to work correctly
And they are working properly?
Yes, they are working properly.

I deleted the pressurized bottle. If you look at the upper rad hose, the filler is in line with that. The overflow goes from there to an unpressurized bottle in the fender well.
The car looks way better now. Wheel and front look tits.

edit: Pics of reservoir setup?
This is a pic of the unpressurized bottle in the wheels well. Its from a 2000 Maxima.
This is the Moroso filler I got from Summit, notice the bleed line, that goes to the overflow.
Then for the lower rad hose, I ditched the stock one and just put in a flexible one that you can buy at any parts store.
I also just ran a hose from the waterneck on the side of the head directly to the rad which bypassed where it would go into and out of the factory bottle.
Pretty simple, only cost me about $50 total and it looks a @!#$load better.
Man it looks so much better with that front.

Agreed^ the car looks f-ing tits.
Leona is a hot bish, I'd hit it, Lenko style.
Looks soo hot!! I do think it needs a 00-02 Z24 wing, but damn it looks good!

You're right, it does look a lot cleaner under the hood. I had an idea about a mock 55-gal drum for a coolant reservoir, with a neck and cap.. but the idea of hiding it away seems better, especially since I could use more room under there when it comes time to re-route my intercooler piping.

I was thinking about wrapping a 2000+ z spoiler in CF. But then I looked at the car and said no way. I LOVE how it looks like this.
