It clears the cooler but you MIGHT need to re-route a few power steering lines. I did but mine was a JZZ31.

I picked up the FMIC kit today from work, Ill be putting it on this weekend i reckon. See how things go. I had a quick browse through the Japanese instructions and from what i could see in the pictures i may have to re-route some power steering lines. But i will know for sure once i get it all apart.

Well well well wasn't that a job!! I installed the FMIC kit yesterday with one of my mates, The word that comes to mind DAMMMMMNNN! Took us 6hrs total to get the fmic kit on.

To be honest it is very easy to put on, it wasn't hard at all. The main problem that we came across was old nuts and bolts :S Along the top of the front bar is Phillips head dome bolts 10mm, mine had thread in the top and were all rusted. We got them off with some good old WD40 and a fat Phillips head screw stick. I end up replacing these with 10mm ratchet head bolts.

The power steering lines were a piece of piss, The AC unit bracket and piping i sorta dodged up and just moved it :S didnt understand that part to well..

If anyone needs help or info on how to put one of these kits on just give me a PM and i can help ya out. (Couldn't be bothered doing a write up guide, Probably would of taken 8hrs to do otherwise haha).

Pictures come soon ;)

No need to thank me, It was a massive and tedious job, you needed an extra pair of hands.

You cant top me helping Josh put a generic (and i'm using 'generic' in it's loosest form) FMIC kit on his R32.

6pm to 3am, then on the way home my Mines ECU died in the Silvia, I was not a happy soul that morning.

** UPDATE **

Installed the Walbro today, used a guide off the forum. Was a piece of piss to install.

The pump is not all that loud, I can only hear it buzzing just at idle or standing still.
