Replacing Stock Fuel hardlines with Braided Ones

[TriniGT]

Has anyone removed the stock hard lines for fueling with braided replacements? I wanna know how hard of a job it is and also how do you deal with the original S15 connectors that clip into the top cover of the tank, wondering if I should just replace the hardline part and leave the rubber hose with the connector that goes to the cover. Any help is greatly appreciated.

if you are going to replace them with braided lines then you should be able to use an s14/a fuel tank lid - they have nipples that you push the hose on to instead of the quick fit s15 clip on pipes

Good idea I was actually contemplating that, thanks for the confirmation.

Why would you go to that extent there is nothing wrong with the hard lines. I would spend my money on a more important mod

I did a conversion and the shop that did it somehow manage to squeeze my two fuel lines at one point. I don't wanna compromise my fuel so hence the reason for changing the lines.

Ok, that was not explained in your first post.
