240sx S14 fuel pump upgrade
What’s up guys!
I’m swapping a 2jz single turbo into my S14. My question regards to the fuel system. I have an aeromotive fuel pressure regulator and I’m running -8 feed and -6 return line and I’ll also run e85. I’m using the walbro 450 fuel pump. I already know how I’m running the feed line but question is in regards to the return line into and through the top hat. I assume I’m better off removing the charcoal canister and plugging the line into the top hat for the canister. But how do I go through the top hat with the return line? Can I just connect it to the existing connector? (Which is only slightly smaller but the holes on the other side of the top hat are crazy small) or do I drill through it use a bulkhead and just let it dump into the tank? I’m going to add some pictures as soon as I get home tonight. |

I would suggest look at other peoples setups to see what they have...the size difference is prone to leak, but if you can get a good seal on doing your own line it should work great!

The return line I'm going to do a similar setup. A -6 an bulkhead to a 5/16" hose barb into the tank and ill attach an aluminum line into the tank that way the fuel going back into the tank doesn't hit with such pressure. Unfortunately, I already ordered the bulkhead from driftmotion and nobody sells a regular 5/16" hose barb to -8an so I'll need extra fittings ![]() I have a YouTube and once I receive the order I'll be installing it so make sure you check it out. The YouTube is "All Cars Everything" |

The fuel return for S14 fuel tank is supposed to pull fuel from one side of the fuel tank to the area where the fuel sock is, because I guess fuel can't get there on it's own if the level drops low enough.
Doesn't look like you retained that functionality so I am curious how low your fuel tank can run before it runs out of fuel at the sock |

The s14 tanks are known to crack anyway and they are crazy expensive to get another one so fuel cell is the way to go |
