I would have so much more money if I never found this forum lol. I keep telling my wife "That's it baby I promise!", then you come along and do this! Depending on what the boss says I may be ordering this lol.

It won't it hurt anything like that. This is pretty much a spacer that just lifts up the stock fuel inlet one inch. It does not even change the direction of flow. This will have no effect on the fuel pressure curve or fuel flow.

Soon! It's still winter in Chicago so it's hard for me to get anyone to bring their Z out so I can use it for installation photos. I can put it on my car to give an idea of where it sits though. But my car no longer has the stock fuel line that comes into the top of this part. Notice the damper I used in the first picture, that was my inlet hose before I chopped it up!

I'll post something close in a little bit here.

I would like to make sure everyone knows that this kit sandwiches between the fuel line and fuel rail extension tube. If your car already has billet fuel rails, it is unlikely that you still have the 2 bolt flange where this goes. If you have a big return system upgrade, you would not need this as all the aftermarket regulators have fuel pressure test ports on them already. All the CJM fuel systems include a fuel pressure gauge solution already.

So this kit makes a ton of sense for people who did in-tank fuel pump and injector upgrades, but left the fuel system in the engine bay otherwise alone.

Unfortunately GReddy charge a fortune for their sensors!

Yes they are proud of them but when looking at the whole picture it's still a drop in the bucket. I didn't cheap out on any part of this build. I'm perfectly fine spending more on quality gauges. I want to know if the gauge tells me 40psi FP, then I've got 40psi. Or in the GReddy case whatever the conversion to kPa would be.

Phunk let us know once the website is updated and I'll get mine immediately.

What is the Greddy part number you guys need?

I can check my cost on it.

Alstann 03-28-2014 12:26 PM

Subbed for a linky! I'll be picking up one asap.

Pressure Sensor Set

Multi D/A

1/8PT


Optional Oil or Fuel Press Set

GReddy

We will need the set which is the sender and the harness extension. Part number and link above. If you can package the deal, I'm all for that.

Chuck33079 03-28-2014 02:10 PM

What colors are available once you start offering anodizing?

Looks like my normal wholesale price on it is $102.50 + shipping.

I will probably just anodize them black for now so that it can work for everyone. When you start doing colors, people start getting picky. Like if I did blue, nobody would want blue if they had red stuff, and vice versa. But black blends in with just about anything.

This is the origin one I got off of phunk last year. He has refined it. There is no need for the elbow. So....I got the very first one. :D

phunk 03-28-2014 03:11 PM

I was looking at those pics yesterday when drawing the part so that I could make sure and solve it.
