DIY Water Tank for my van:
Not a Nissan, but might give you some ideas:
Valterra 12 Gallon Tank, place your fittings wherever you need them (drill and chemical weld):
Drain valve and hand-pump over the plastic-lined step at the slider door:
I've made provisions for an electric pump, but honestly I don't think I'll need it until/unless I get a hot-water setup (Helton) and want to take a shower. The hand-pump works great and helps the family conserve water.
More details of the tank process in my build thread.
My air system is still portable...

Yeah I think I'm gonna go the mark Stephens route for my water storage placement. But for the air compressor I'm thinking about mounting it somewhere in my nooks I built into my drawer system, behind the wheel wells towards the deepest part of the truck bed. My concerns are noise and if it will have enough airflow. Plus how hot would like an ARB twin compressor get? Would I need to be concerned with a potential fire hazard? Then has anybody mounted theirs between the body and the bed?

I'm planning on setting up a tankless system. Less weight and less bulk. I'll have to try to track the thread down, but there is a guy who did it with his Tacoma.
