FTO AUSTRALIA

yeah good point ftevoultion mate sh*t i might not take it now. um i ordered all brand new engine mounts from camskill. i was hoping these will be ok for the time being and if they straight to break i will buy better ones. i got these because it was the only place i really knew were to get that kinda stuff from.

or ben do u feel like a flight to darwin man and we could finish ourselves mate hah. i dont think their is anything left we cant do mate.
do you know how to do braided lines and know how to custom the actuator buddy.

wiring looms are in sydney getting made togther saving me going for a standalone system.

If you said yes ben i would so get you up here. i dont think the shop will like it thought working on the car at their shop.

I can do braided lines, ran a few for my brother Many people stuff up the ends and fray all the SS overlay

Also advise getting special braided hose cutters, make it a lot easier

damn you haha i dont have a clue on how to make them at all the workshop my car is at has all the stuff to do it. He is the dealer for NOS in darwin but they are so slow the motor isint even in the car grrhhh gonna hit him up tonyt to do it

BEN do you have tha blue print for the turbo actuator on the front or a good pick of it mate so i could show the guy. So he can do it mate.

THey reckon i wont have my car back in 4 weeks i really want it back before then. I am trying so hard to go in their everyday and do stuff. Like today i put the gear selector cables in, damn it was a prick to do.

I know you aren't going to like this idea, but you don't NEED braided lines. There are a lot of other high temperature/pressure resistant options (Silicon for example).

Save yourself some headaches mate. The only place I would ever bother using braided lines is on brake lines. The rest is bling (sorry guys, just my opinion hehe).

I would be doing the fuel lines as well

ok mate what kind of silicon pipe would i use mate. because if i just use pipe i can do it all myself mate. then the motor would be very close to finished

nvr mate, check out this site for some kick ass hose products. These products are sold in New Zealand by Enzed, you will have something similar there. No need to make the f**kers up when you can just buy them.

My car has the standard GR fuel lines, and using the Leggy fuel pump. No issues thus far. That's why I didn't suggest that, of course he could though

Bro, infact, CLICK THIS ---> http://www.darwin.enzed.com.au/

so i just cut say the metal piping off like 3 inchs from each end then take them to enzed so i can get the size of the pipe right then get some clamps and clamp the new hoses on mate. If this is so i am going to do it.

Hey would the standard legnum fuel pressure regualtor be ok to use and the standard fto fuel pump for the time being as i can change the fuel pump myself later on.
just wanan get all the main parts done now so i can gt the car back.
eg not putting lowering springs in

Leggy FPR, yes absolutely fine.

FTO fuel pump, don't you dare, you will blow the engine to pieces (internally).

I would call ENZED first and ask what they need to make hoses for you. Ask what their call out is worth too, may be worth an extra $100 or so to get them out to do it at the car (because they have a kick arse call out service, 15 minute guaranteed city business hours call out in NZ).

They won't necessarily be cheap, but they will definitely be hell quick!

ok so change fuel pump got it haha.

ok but cant i just go buy some hose tthat is rated for the oil return line on the car then buy hose clamps put the hose on and clamp it down onto the metal pipe that i left onto the ends that the bolts go though

aye, you'll need to get an aftermarket fuel pump - don't want to be running lean & screwing the engine .. overrated pump would be better than underrated..

yeah i gotta order the walbro fuel pump

update.
Well spent a few hours their today connected up the gear selector cables. Changed the brake and accelrator pedals to manual set and started to put cenrte console back togther. I am gonna try and change fuel pump 2morow and hope the mechanic cuts the hole in the firewall he said he will try and get onto it. Will also take some pics.

Awesome stuff mate .. I think I saw a guide on changing the fuel pump somewhere ..Will see if I can dig it up..

haha thanks ben will see if they have 1 in stock in darwin. I pray they do I found out the wiring looms haven't arrived yet and they got sent 2 weeks ago

that might've been it ..
