Quick question,

I've just got new injectors and fuel rail - the rail is red because it was cheaper and in stock, can someone tell me how visible the fuel rail is under the std inlet plenum?

Just trying to figure out if its worth me painting or not. Everything else in the engine bay is black (even intercooler pipes and joiners) so I don't want a easily visible red pipe sitting in the middle of my engine.

Cheers

Keep it red. Fuel is dangerous and flammable, firetrucks are red for a reason, and your fuel rail should be too. Surprised they're not that color from factory.

At first I agreed, but then realised fire trucks don't explode, now I'm really confused!

You couldn't just look at your engine and judge how visible it's gonna be?

It's definitely visible, and more so if the rest of your engine is black.

My engine is in pieces and has been for almost 3 years. If there was an engine to look at then obviously I would have looked....

And yes i have googled many times. If you google rb25det and rb25det fuel rail have a look at the thousands of pictures of cars WITH FORWARD FACING INTAKES or cars with std rails or simply the rail by itself.

The images don't help me at all - hence the post. No need for smart ass remarks, was a genuine question

Ill give it a scuff and coat of paint tonight, cheers

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
