Replaced aem 320l fuel pump with aem 380lph pump, utilized modified stock cage and mounting system, ran to a holley hydramat over 8an line. Factory 5/16 fuel lines were reused to the sending unit for a near stock install.

Picture does not indicate final install orientation for hydramat. Both the cage and mount have to be modified for the pump to clip in without any hassle. Very easy to do with a pair of pliers to break off a touch of overhang on the front of the cage, yanking on the hood that would cover the pump on the Mount in the tank to delete that part, and using a 3" hose clamp to strap the cage together as the pump is slightly too large but close enough where a metal hose clamp will secure it nicely.

The pump is rated for in tank or in line use. Same size as a Bosch 044

Aem pn is 50-1005

Finally got my trans off to take a look at why my clutch wasn't disengaging.



There we are. Replaced with an Action Clutch 2KS kit.



Didn't get to check holding capacity but it disengages, so that's a plus...

yes thanks! It seems to be a never ending battle on clutch springs so I keep hoping to find one where the springs don't pop out.. I'll be curious to hear how this replacement holds up for you (honestly never heard of it before)

I hear a lot of good about Action Clutch. There were some issues early on with their compatibility with our transmissions, they were stripping the input shafts, but I believe those issues were sorted out.

Yeah, I have never ran unsprung before, as our transmissions are fragile enough as-is. This is the first time I have ever had a spring come out though, in all of my years of driving. And this disc was in my turbo car for the last 5+ years (at LEAST the 5 years that i've owned it....but I know it wasn't brand new when I got it) with no issues until last month.

Will report how the clutch works out once I can take it out for a romp.

Took the LE-R on one last road trip for the season to Mississippi to pick up some brand new Nitto NT-05 205/50R15 tires that came with B14 SE-R wheels mounted. Averaged 31.6 mpg and 79 mph both ways for a 640 mile round trip.

Installed B13 folding rear seat back into my SE-R.









Used the SE-R bottom cushion since the LE onewas pretty damned dirty. Doesn't fit the best along the wheel arches, as these came out of a 4-door LE, but i'll take it! If I can find a 2-door LE one day, I may try and find the trim pieces I need to make it all good. Not high on my priority list though. This car ain't a looker anyway.

Forgot, I also installed a used washer fluid reservoir and a passenger side fender liner. Reservoir doesn't leak...but washer fluid pump doesn't work. Didn't think to test before I bought it.
