Is that for an FD Fritts? I dumped my setup, but am planning to put it in NeverDie's car. Hoping I don't have to modify the pump bucket in his car to clear the dual pumps. The FC bucket was nowhere close to clearing without mods, so I just went A1000 and sumped tank. Nothings worth doing that isn't worth overdoing....

Yeah, that's for my FD. I had an SX pump but decided I didn't want to mess with the sump.

Stock bucket on that FD too?

Oh, and utterly unrelated, would somebody please come buy my damn wheels. I'm sick of tripping on them. 100 bucks is a good deal, I swear.

Parts!

Jet-Hot 2000* coated hot side. It's not actually as blue as the flash makes it look, it's a lot darker and more subtle.



Got fuel?







If you look closely here, you can see the EGT probe in the manifold.





Fuel feed (with gauge) through rails to regulator to return. The big bit on the regulator is the sender for my in cabin fuel pressure gauge.





Still have a lot to do, but it's getting closer...

Any of you guys know who owns the Saphire Blue S4 n/a for sale at Autozone on Center street here in Warsaw? Me and Rolf are supposed to go look at it soon just wondered if anyone knew more about it. I wanted to get it for a track car but I don't have any cash right now. So looks like Rolf is gonna be an RX-7 ***** and buy another.. lol

Nevermind that thing was a piece of ****. $800 It needs a new exhaust, body has rust, large dent on drivers lower rear quarter panel, hood and bumper are pushed down like it drove under the back of a truck on the drivers side, interior is cracked, missing radio all together, needs master & slave cylinder, tires are bald, paint is faded, another dent by the filer cap, had a home brew "CAI" lol K&N filter duct taped to the MAF, and the alternator was barely hanging on... Owner said something about a thermostat but if the belts aren't tight I bet the water pump isn't turning correctly so it may have been overheated.

I think I have a spare passenger rear TII brake caliper.

Oh and the fuel system is mocked up:

Here you can see the bracket for the pump. It's pretty sturdy, plenty enough to hold the A1000 in place.


This picture is a little misleading because of the angle. There is no sharp bend in that hose at all, it's just the perspective.
