hope this helps... https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-generation-specific-1986-1992-17/post-pics-your-stainless-steal-fuel-system-556426/

all those fittings are pretty expensive. you could probably get away with using brass NPT fittings if you really wanted to.

with the setup that they show on fc3spro do you have run an fittings all the way to the tank because i just want to bypass the stock fpr. i have no need to run a parallel fuel system. i was just thinking of drilling the sleeve out that slides up and down in the fpr until it doesnt interfere with flow anymore and then just jb weld the vaccume nipple closed or something like that. sound like it would work?

you can run it to the hard line by the stock fuel filter if you dont want to go all the way to the tank.

sure but you are still going to need the fittings for the FPR.

out of curiosity, why do you think you need an aftermarket FPR?

dont need one my stock one is bad and its either by aftermarket(65.00) or stock new (118.00). i got a walbro to go in and im goin gt35r 1600cc secondaries and power fc over the winter so why not now. The megan fpr has nipples at each end not an fittings so it would go to the stock lines. stock lines are good for like 500hp and i wont be getting that. so it would pretty much be a waste of money for me to spend all that $.
