Yeah, i think theyre 3/8 in diameter or something like that. They couldnt be in a better place really. Silly to run braid or any other solid line under the car if these are unused.

Shaun.

Whats wrong with just using the standard fuel lines under the car? Thats what i did, my setup is the blue skyline in the first post of this thread.

Can you remember the exact fittings you used to hook the braided lines up to the stock hard lines?

That was my first thought, however I find that most of the time it looks really messy or disorganised. I'm thinking of running them underneath the fuel rail through cable holders (similar to what's used for computer cables or home entertainment cables) so that I don't have zip ties and plastic conduit going everywhere.

Some very serious filtration going on there.

Are you running one tank for methanol/race fuel and the other tank for normal duties? As it looks like you have a distribution block that links to the fuel lines that run underneath the car?

u guessed it!

the sard surge tank is connected to the standard fuel tank which will be used for ur normal every day 98 octane

the fuel cell will be used for race fuel

the car is setup so it can swap between different fuel's via a switch inside the cabin

we are able to do this because the haltech E11v2 allows us to hold more then one tune map

so with a flick of a switch we can go from street mode to race mode

the wiring involved thats going into a setup like this is just mind blowing

the fuel cell is a custom item which we blue printed from the sard surge tank

we bought the sard surge tank from hi octane and copied its design and built our fuel cell from it

so not only is it a fuel cell its also a surge tank all in 1

the filler cap and lid are all CNC machined from billet

we will also be making our own sard surge tank copy's which we will have on the market for less then geniune sard items and they will perform just as good

For the fuel pump wiring, i used 2 30amp fused relays, 1 for each pump. Power is connected straight to the battery, and the trigger for the relays is spliced into the factory harness, its the wire that goes down into the fuel tank, its a switched 12v that powers on when u flick the key, easy to find with a multi.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
