I found a few write ups but none with pics so here it is
Disconnect your battery. Then the fuel pump access door is behind the Driver on a USDM spec FD. Lift up the carpet and you'll see it. If you have a Bose stereo system you'll probably have to remove it. There should be 4 screws holding the door down.
Lift up the fuel door and unclip the wiring harness
You can either unclip the ground or unscrew it i went with unscrewing it.
Set the door off to the side and unscrew the fuel line connectors
Clean off the area for obvious reasons
Take all the screws out of the fuel hatch
You'll need to push the 2 fuel lines out of the way. The line on the right hooks into a clip i found it easier to pull the line of the clip so you get more play in the line
Lift out SLOWLY as to not hook the float on anything
Remove the screw on the back of the rack, mine was extremely tight
The + and - wires are different sizes so you can't really screw that up but hey maybe you can. I left 1 wire on just to make sure i didn't
With the new fuel pump make sure and hook up the fuel bag thing
by pressing on the washer
Put the spacer and O-ring in the fuel neck

Great write-up. Thanks for going to the trouble. Good point on cleaning the area around the hoses and hatch before removal.
My only comment would be to make sure you also get a new screen ("fuel bag thing"). I assume the FD is like a couple of other cars I've had this experience with, where the screen is purchased separately. Personaly I wouldn't install a new pump without a new screen...especially since they're usually less than $10.

You can replace the stock FP with another stock FP but I put in a Supra pump same size as the stock pump, this would also work for a walbro.

I did but later on when i had my haltech installed. Didn't think to take pics of that had to many other wires running around.
yea i have wires going crazy because of my AI system, last thing i wanted was more wires running around, so i kept all the wires under the fuel pump cover (not in the tank)

i went with a cooling mist unit, i think if i could go again i would go with aquamist, they seem to make the unit alot smaller, so you can hide it lol.. i got the one with the gauge, its good to have i guess, tells me either boost/what % the pump is pushing/volt/ or flow rate if i had that thing for it.
