GT1R Methanol Fuel Line Kit

In an effort to make it as easy as possible to build 2000+hp methanol monsters, we’ve put together a complete fuel system kit.

We have had our GT1R Mechanical Fuel Pump Kit on the market for some time now, and it’s proving it’s worth on 3 of the 4 quickest R35 GTRs on the planet, with many more climbing their way up the ladder or still in the build stages.

Now with the GT1R Methanol Fuel System Kit, you can make plumbing your GT1R Mechanical Fuel Pump Kit a breeze.

We start out with a Peterson 100 micron stainless element pre filter for the pump.  This mounts in the rear of the car, underneath the trunk, and includes a mount.   Getting the fuel to the pre filter is not part of our system, as it will depend on the fuel cell configuration on what that will take, but you just need to get it from the cell to the pre filter with a 16AN line (YES, 16AN!!).

From the Peterson filter we go to the rear mounted pump, keeping the pump close to the cell and gravity fed for proper performance and no priming issues.

Out of the Kinsler fuel pump (pump NOT included in the line kit, part of the pump kit), we run a 10AN line to a Y, which goes to a pair of Fore Innovations 12 micron microglass elements.   We use these two in parallel like this to meet the ridiculous fuel flow demands of 2500+hp on methanol, and the microglass elements sufficiently filter the system to prevent injector problems.   The Fore filters include a CNC mount that will mount in the factory fuel tank location.

Out of the filters we Y back into a single 10AN line toward the front of the car.   On the bellhousing we mount a Peterson billet 3 to 1 adapter, which takes our 10AN line and splits it to (3) 6AN lines, one line feeding each fuel rail (bank 1, bank 2, and secondary rail).

From each fuel rail we run back down to the bellhousing mounted Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator.   The mount for the regulator is included and mounts in the general area that the bank 2 downpipe would be in an OEM location turbo configuration.

From the bottom of the regulator we run an 8AN line all the way back to the rear trunk bulkhead.   We include an 8AN bulkhead fitting and the return line runs to that.   Getting the fuel from this bulkhead inside the trunk to the fuel cell is again up to you, as it’s fuel cell/location dependent.

A few details to note:

• This kit will not work with exhaust going toward the back of the car.  It is designed for turbo kits with turbos mounted up front, and downpipes exiting in front of the front tires or through the hood.
• This kit is built with Redhorse crimp fittings and hose, which are all methanol compatible.
• All necessary fittings for the regulator, rails, and filters are included.
• We need to know which primary/secondary fuel rails you’re using, and which intake manifold you’re using to supply the correct parts to suit.
• Proper fuel system maintenance is key with methanol.  The system should be pickled between events and kept sealed if sitting in methanol (cap any system vents).  Do not allow to sit in methanol for more than a week or so at a time.   If you use an aluminum fuel cell, make sure it is hard anodized inside and out, the methanol will eat it alive if it’s not.   We recommend a methanol compatible plastic fuel cell when possible.
