On a Honda it is 1/8 BSPT.British standard pipe thread i believe that stands for.If that is the same on your Toyota then you can get one at lots of places.Try a Napa,auto parts places or like i said open the yellow pages and start looking for industrial supply places.hydraulic shops,hose places etc.

<-- so impatient.... i bought the double outlet adaopter from Tunertoys... for $30 total last nite.. haha.. o welll.. How much you think it woulda been at like NAPA or something?? please tell me it'd be atleast $15 so i dont feel that stupid... I bet i coulda gotten it sooner also if I got the hook up from Napa also... Anyways.. I know i said i was gonna get the manifold earlier (Monday).. but monday he couldnt work on it and tuesday he said he was almost done.. Yesteerday he said he was done, but was heat treating it to fortify it.. Anyways.. Long story short if i dont get it today then im regulating =].. Anyways. 90dx or someone hook me up with some info.. Later

$30 is not to bad.Brass fittings are never cheap.Good to buy from sponsors and support them as well.

haha ok.. TUNER TOYS REPRESENT!!!. ..

Anyways.. soo... i took my car over to my buddies house where we're doing the install.. he has a bunch of air tools etc and. a lot more space than i do .. So yeah. we started last nite. I dont know if anyone on here has taken an oil pan off a 5th gen ceilca b4.. but OMG>>!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! .... 3 hours.. ... there was this bolt inbetween the tranny and a center support that one of the engine mounts is attatched to. seriously.. I almost cried.. haha..

Anyways.. finally got it off and then the exhaust is in the way .. greased the bolts up and set took the impact wrench to one of em.. Stripped the ---- outa the bolt.. we were using the right size socket and everything.. It was just stuck. So im cutting right below where the cat piping connects to the exhaust manifold and bracing it until i get an exhaust shop to mate the down pipe and dump tube to it... Sigh.. i was hoping to get a lot more done yesterday.. but o wel.. didnt even get the chance to JB weld the fitting in ..

OH yeah... and FMU's are wayyy easy on hondas because of the easy access to the fuel rail and FPR.... MIne is hidden underneath the intake manifold and behind the block.. haha.. ITS such a tite fit.. And i dont see the fuel line running to the FPR either.. i was so0o confused.. and im 100 percent sure its the FPR.. (it was right on the end of the fuel rail =] ... ). and i know what a FPR looks like.. and i was like 99% sure that the fuel line has to run through the FPR.. but anyone that has done some work with a ceilca or toyota in general.. give me some info.. . Thanks.
