do it right the first time:

alloy fuel tank

carter lift pump

aeromotive a1000 pump

aeromotive a13110 fuel reg

aeromotive filters

2ltr surge tank

jap branded fuel rail

800/1000cc injectors

-8 fuel line from tank splitting into 2x-6 at rail

-8 line from rail to reg

-8 from reg to tank

Does all thats stuff look nice?

Probably the most important thing about getting things you dont need, gotta look the part even if they dont do much more than the stock stuff

Kinda like a aftermarket BOV really, not needed... but makes noises and looks cool.

stupidest comment ever

[ali-turko]

i agree with R31Nismoid why spend thousands of dollars on fuel system when you dont need to,

my mate with rb25 mate a 360kw with just bigger injectors, surge take and a 044

Well how about you put the costings up for all the parts that you simply dont need.

Then we'll cost up something that could

1. Have far more use/benefit for the car

2. Return far more power/response

And so the list goes.

The factory gear has been proven time and time again to be faultless and totally reliable in big horsepower applications.

So i fail to logically see the need to waste money on paraphernalia type items that don't offer ANY usable gain over factory gear.

If anything, changing factory parts that are tried and proven, brings in the element of reliability using non factory parts!

I mean fair enough, if you have ALL the money in the world, you'd get stuff like that.

However, this is the real world, people real have budgets to build cars on. When your spending 15k on a rebuild, turbos, diffs, clutches etc.

Modifications that offer no tangible gain, do not fit into a budget.

that fuel system isnt for ur average run of the mill 400kw car, obviously, u musta missed my sarcasm that i wasnt aiming that guide to this thread specifically

Some may like to re-use the ~15yr old lines and that, but then some may like to replace it all with new parts, and not play with fire in a big hp application, to me its a no brainer

[R31Nismoid]

Honestly... 15yr old metal lines are a risk how exactly?

[skylinekid]

look i just need to know wat u guys reckon on this...

550rwhp wat size lines from pump to the front of the vehicles and wat size lines would u suggest in the return...

[mid life crisis]

Stock stuff will still be fine dude, we are telling you as we've done it

thats not what he wants to hear he wants to hear bigger has to be better

[Risking]

leave the original lines, the feed and return WILL be fine.

Id be fitting a surge tank, a 1 liter will be fine, its not like your planning any long high speed g forces.

Decent set of 700cc or there abouts injectors

Nismo fuel pressure reg to be safe

External bosch pump and use the stocker as a lift

Or just fit an intake bosch, with injectors and reg.

There is no need to upgrade lines etc etc for what you want to do.

If you cant afford the HKS version of the T04z then you cant afford to set up a fuel system with the best and biggest parts.

no, but the 15yr old silicon lines are

i can afford a hks to4z u dont know my finance situation so those comments r complete and utter bullshit i just cant justify 1850 dollars extra for a turbo that will prolly bring on boost 100rpm earlier and make around the same power as a garret.....

money for parts isnt the issue i will do it right no matter wat it costs

[R31Nismoid]

no, but the 15yr old silicon lines are

So you replace them if they are in poor condition, less than $50 to refit the whole car.

I still fail to see the point here on a budget

[EXXCOP]

Speedflow fittings definitely make a car TUFFR

seems this thread has gone to the shit. I dont know too much on fuel systems but dude if i was you i would look around on carsales and stuff and find other high hp cars and see what they are using. Or even better ring up a few companys that sell fuel pump etc..

[lcy]

hey guys,

keep it up! lol

just invading this thread since everyone doesnt seem to have something to do.

does the fuel pump really makes a difference?

i am looking to achieve 350 to 400hp atw.

would a 600hp fuel pump be over kill. prices are not a huge difference. so should i just get a 600hp fuel pump?

thanks!

[GeeTR]

As people have said, its a done deal.

044 (600hp) - ~$230

700cc Sards - ~$650

Lines, rail and FPR are fine

[Risking]

^^^^^^

thank god someone is thinking normally and its not just me thinking im insain!!
