I am currentley looking at replacing the solid fuel lines in my car, one bigger lines, more fuel, the obvious. But also as everything else will be braided lines and screw on fittings it would be kinda nice to be able to screw these lines into the solid ones instead of using homo little adapters and clamps and stuff.

Now I suppose my actual questions, how much power will the standard lines flow as opposed to say a -6 or -8 line? and how the hell do you get the lines in and out, is there a way to do it without dropping the entire rear cradle out?

yeah, just cut them.

Do you have a fuel problem atm? if not, then why bother changing?

then how do you get the new ones in.......

At present yes, with bigger pump/injectors maybe not, but as I said I wanna know how much power the stock lines flow.

i can tell you for certain if you are using 700cc injectors then the standard solid lines will not be posing a restriction for you.

awesome >_<

hmmm still kinda gay having to use those little adapter thinggys, ah well dunno if I can warrant the expense to get the lines redone just to get around it.....

I hear alot of discussion about using the hicas lines if its disabled. Weather this is feasible i do not know.

that trick only works for r32's that have the hydraulic hicas.

i ripped my stockers out on the weekend, looking at them, they are only 8mm each! :) replacing them with 2x -6 feed and 1x -8 return. just use a pipe bender to bend the tube into shape, shouldnt be all that hard :)

also if u wanna get rid of the stock rubber gear in the engine bay and kepe the stock tube lines under the car, u can use speedflow fittings from the tubing to braide, piece of piss really >_<

yeah making the lines is no problem it's just getting them in and out :)

yar those little fitting jigger things, just a shame to have all screw on fittings then use rubber pipes and clamps to join to the lines under the car....

The stock gear i believe leewah used for 600rwkw.

It'll be decent enough for you :laugh:

That makes me happier about using the stock ones, as I said before though still a shame to have to use those little jigger fittings.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
