Don't forget airflow and heat needs to escape.

The ARB Hi Output Compresser is a Great product. Cna be mounted outside teh car with No concern at all. Infact ARB has one on display at their Kilsyth Factory in a Fish Tank full of water on 100% Duty cycle fully submerged with only a vent via one of their Solenoids mounted to it. Quite extraordinary!
If you are going to fit a Tank into your system then its a great idea for use with Tools and what not, also for a big blast to rebead a tyre it can be handy too. The point there though is your ability to increase the pressure in the tank to 100 - 120psi for usable air.
When designing your setup you really need to be able to isolate the tank from the system via a gate valve or solenoid or you will be increasing what your poor old compressor has to pump up every time you fit it to a tyre. Your 33 will be like pumping a 35 and so on. Its just more volume to get to your running pressure. Turn it off and isolate it as it is slowing down your airup.
I have 2 air tanks and have isolated them via an ARB Solenoid for when i am airing up

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
WARNING: Towballs used for recoveries can, and do kill people and damage property.
Yes i have my Big compressor mounted in a Box and fitted the rear door speaker cover over a hole the same size as the vent for the box.if you have fitted new speakers to your front doors and did not use the covers then they work very well. Looks sweet too

Good idea there MR..
I was also thinking of fitting a 100mm fan from a pc.. They run well on 12V..

Good thing is you can get these in silent and adjustable speed units. Would be good to maybe fit a timer relay so the fan ran a little longer than the compressor to cool it down after service. (hmm he says as he types should look into this)

Good idea.. But that's getting a bit technical.. By pass wires for power after switch off, relays... Omg my heads hurting...
