Default coolant overflow tank cap

Does anybody know where I can get a GReddy coolant overflow tank cap similar to this? Mine is leaking so it's sucking in air and shooting coolant out off the top.

It is the GReddy tank but the cap is not the GReddy cap that came with the kit. Searching around it looks similar to the Toyota style cap.

I believe 89' Corolla is what the parts guy said. Part # below and cost from the dealer yea expensive for that damn plastic cap. Also the cap goes on one way so be sure to make sure it's on properly or else it'll squirt coolant out the cap.

16405-15091 $28.11

Take that number to an auto parts store and they should be able to cross reference to it another brand / number.

I damaged my Greddy Coolant Reservoir long ago and instead I just purchased/installed the GTM coolant reservoir tank and relocated it to in front of the radiator (driver side). Must better location overall and provides more space in that area around the passenger side air intake. Maybe you might consider a change. Its ridiculously overpriced but worth it in the long run.

I emailed them to ask how the G35 version fits but did not receive any answer, but I did find a universal version minus the brackets for 20 bucks. Would have to just fab some brackets to make it fit.

Yep it's just a universal application tank. Maybe they charge extra for the brackets? Not sure why shipping is so costly?

I got a GTM GTM coolant reservoir tank I notice that is spill out my greddy one didn't any one have this problem?

The GTM coolant reservoir tank comes from the bottom so it shoot up but the greddy shoots down so it doesn't spray out of the cap.
