It's $91 for 15 feet at Summit or Jegs, that's -10AN line, or if you only want -8AN it's a mere $79, blimey someone is trying to slip one up yer .....
Without wishing to upset any distributors over there , some one is extracting the michael here

Wil ANYONE can import it direct from the 'states it's just a question of whether old Lionel Blair gets his +50% or whatever nonsense they rip you off over there

And just to annoy you all a bit more, the Skyline is getting released from US customs today- er 2.5% import duty, and for all those who siad it couldn't be done - er well just import it as a race only vehicle

i take it it's the stainless line that everyone wants??

there's either stainless or socketless blue or black, the socketless looks to me like it's jubileed together or uses the fittings that have the clamp built in, let me know who wants what and i'll get some

The socketless uses no clamps. The fittings just push into the ends. However it is a nightmare getting them to push in. I have not managed yet. I ended up having to file them!

Hi Wil,
Looking at the connections I already have, I have used -8 off the fuel cell and onto the pump (hose I have also), then -6 from the pump to the front of the car so diameter will be smaller?
I just need to check but will need 6m, I will post what I need later on tonight .
Cheers mate

Ok i've ordered stainless aeroquip 40ft -6 and -8 and 20ft of -10 direct from the states.
It'll be here early january now so if anyone wants any let me know, i don't know the price yet as i don't know what cut the monkeys want out of it but it'll be cheaper than ?15.

If anyone is interested we are now the UK dealer for FBO systems and we will be stocking Goodridge AN fittings and hose -4 -6 and -8 for now although we will be stocking the whole range soon.
Looking at other suppliers prices in the UK we should be cheaper by a fair bit

Nice one, give us a shout when you get the fuel line in.

Cheers

I'll let you know when it arrives, shouldn't be long, after pricing this stuff up here the prices people are charging are way to high.
We're working on getting the prices on our web site at the moment.
