    Gave it a clean tonight. Unfortunately found that the rear left wheel has been guttered bad while at the workshop. I called them, they are going to sort it out.

    It looks like it has been guttered and then patched up with a touch up paint, so whoever did it, knows they did it and tried to hide it. I trust the guys at the workshop, but it was towed back and forward to an exhaust place and a specialty auto electricians place. Could of been them, or most likely the tow truck driver while loading or unloading the car, who knows... Either way will get it sorted soon enough.

                    Thanks mate, the iphone6 does alright sometimes. I need to learn how to use a 'proper' camera and get some better shots though.

                              Im interested in knowing more about your AN fitting fuel system. What fuel pressure regulator did you use? Did you run the braided hose all the way to the tank? More pics please?

                                Hey mate, I just went out and took a few shots of the system. It's a pretty basic setup really, but works well and cleans up the bay nicely.

                                I have just run -AN6 lines to the stock hardlines on the firewall. So I haven't run all the way back to the tank/pump. the pressurised line to the fuel rail, which loops back around to the reg, then from the reg down to the return/drain line. I'm using the 'Nuke Performance' fuel rail which comes with -AN8 (if i remember right) threaded ends. So just used a reducer in order to run -AN6 hose.

                                I am using a 'Hybrid Racing' fuel pressure regulator. (Hybrid racing make Honda kswap parts, my old civic was sponsored by them a few years ago) but the fuel reg is universal, so it does the job.
