Nial down there is a Toyota man so he'll know all the right AN sizes you'll need, I don't think he's there on Sat though

I second not going with cheap chinese fittings, as they WILL fail eventually.

Only use Speedflow, Fragola et al

Also ensure you only use PTFE lines too

Cardwells also

Ah yeah cardwells is alot closer it's just down the road I'll take a look down there

My experience with cardwells is they are bunch of dicks.

[iamawesome]

Really? I haven't delt with them before I just drive past it all the time. What was your experience with them?

Surprising

They've been very very helpfull all the times I've been in there - to the point they showed me a few tricks with the lines and fittings and we made one of the lines on his bench for free.

I must admit it was a while ago (few years, closer to a decade). I went in there, and immediately once they figured I was trying to get stuff for a jap import they did not want to deal with me. I got wiff of it is not for an yank tank or Australian sibling I am not a customer.

GSS all good, brought my turbo in and just said "make it work please", charged arm and a leg for fittings, but goddamn they last forever.

Had the same experience with Cardwells more recently (inside of 2 years). They didn't listen to anything I said, rather than supply what I asked them for - they told me what I should use instead and when I told them what it was for they told me I would never need what I wanted.

All I wanted was a simple fitting that is listed in their catalogue but had to come in from overseas. I already had the part number and I told them I was happy to pay whatever cost were associated with it but it seemed getting the fitting in was too much effort - especially after I said it was for an MR2.

I have dealt with them once through email and a couple of times over the phone they couldn't have been more helpful or willing....

They all sell good fittings

NZKW for simple fittings, I tried out their PTFE versions on my fuel system and they seem to be of good quality and have not leaked.

Went to gss yesterday and got all the lines and fittings. the dude really knew his stuff and couldn't of been more helpful.
