I have my power steer resivour in front of the radiator mounted to the support I got the idea from a 32 at powercruise. I have the plastic bottle and the feed hose to the pump runs under the radiator and haven't had any problems at all.

Onto the fuel setup as you can see I have fitted a type s tomei fuel reg. I have replaced all the fuel lines . Except the one that has to be submersable in the fuel tank to withstand e85 fuel

I am going to run the new walbro and install it soon . do I really need a catch tank for my setup to support e85 at 600 whp ? ? Or will the walbro keep up on its own obviously with big injectors

And I was thinking of running the stock fuel rail will there be a disadvantage over an aftermarket twin entry rail if so what fuel rail should I purchase. And with running the fuel lines as twin entry do they just go from each end of the rail and join into one somehow and go to fuel filter ?

Fitted my greedy oil cooler on drivers side today had to do a little modification to mounting bracket because i no longer have stock intercooler ,still need to fit up all the lines I had to remove stock bovs

Now in the instructions for the kit it has trust bovs fitted the stock bovs will not fit with the cooler I yhat location seen as though im running a single turbo do I need 2 bovs ? Or just fit 1 in its place if so what type im not into the wanky bov noise .....

Stock BOV's. Leave them alone. They do the job, spend the money elsewhere.

I have already removed them to fit the oil cooler as per grex instructions to fit it drivers wheel arch.

So I need a different bov to fit its the only reason I removed them so the cooler would fit . As im running single turbo do I only need one bov

My opinion for the fuel system is to run a surge that way no mater what fuel level you have in your tank you always have a good constant, pressurised supply of fuel to the engine

I would advise throwing a dual entry fuel on it aswell me and the girlfriends car needed dual entry rails at 460rwhp on united p100

the tuner said it wasn't a issue with the presure it was an issue with volume I ended up running from my 2lt surge with a 044 fuel pump -10 tefflon braided supply line to regulator.

I then ran a -8 tefflon braided return line to the regulator

I then ran 2x -6 or -8 (cant remeber what size I think it ws -8) teflon braided lines to each end of the rail

and a return fuel line from the middle of the rail to the regulator

for 600rwhp on E85 you will need high volume and good pressure so it may be worth running 2x 044 pumps and a walbro intank lift pump to keep the surge well supplied with fuel

I've just upgraded from a Walbro e85 pump to a surge tank and twin 044's. Car was making 588hp on the Walbro but it was leaning out up top. I wouldn't push one of these walbros past 500-520hp. If yours chasing 600 or more I'd look into an external setup. For the extra bit of cash it's worth making sure the motor doesn't lean out and wreck what you've just built

If you have blocked off your charcoal canister, make sure you have it venting somewhere. I just left mine open to atmosphere at the back, though can't say I highly recommend doing that, E85 being hydroscopic and all. Your fuel tank needs to vent though.

I have a 044 intank now

So if I just run a surge tank and two more 044s ? External osnt that overkill has anyome got a r33 gtr and where do they mount the surge tank ??

    • 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.
