Really need to hook up my adjustable FPR - but no adaptor bracket - can I bypass???

[TurbLu]

Hey guys,

As of today my 240 is my only car. It is currently suffering from a bad FPR due to an install of a High Flow Walbro 255. I ordered a universal Adjustable FPR from Megan but I forgot to order the Nismo Adaptor. Can I bypass this item in any way, if even temporarily just so I do not have to take the bus to work... I have ordered the part from FR Sport.com but that wont even ship out till tomorrow at the earlist, which means 2 - 4 days on the buss...

Please guys help me out here....

bump for morning help..

Can I run this item in line with the fuel (in hose) which runs into the fuel rail? And then just run the Stock FPR as passive???

im not 100% sure, because the nismo ones make it so you just run a line rather than mounting the fpr, but i know that running both will probably be trouble, so i would advise against it, but i woul wait to see what others say too

ITs cool guys:

Solution- Take your stock FPR to a local Hose and Fittings Store. They will cut the return end off and weld it onto the feed end. Instant Nismo FPR Adaptor for like 20 bucks... LOL....

Thanks guys!!!!

Well... the finished product is awesome will update this thread with pics shortly....

But the damn Megan FPR is a POS... It leaks from every possible place... after some dissassembly I found out many things:

1. No teflon tape used on any fittings
2. The top part of the regulator has a spot for an O-ring.... But no damn O-ring.. off to Checkers I go for a 1 7/8" O ring...

Please let them have this part... I need this car running ASAP!!!

Update... completely rebuilt the FPR... works great now... absolutely no leaks...
