Cheers, they look pretty good but only do them in version 5-6

Dunk can you not just get a set converted to take the fittings that you are planning on using?

There was a guy on here that was doing them a while back but i cant mind his name.

I would really recommend saving for the additional period and buying the rails from Carl Davey.

They really are first class for quality and he is a top chap who is friednly and helpful.

I would post some pics up of mine, but the car is being worked on at the moment...

Save your money and get a -6 fitting conversion done on your oem rails, trust me nobody ever looks at them. Instead spend your £100 on some nice braided hose and fittings which everyone will see.

Mocom Racing sell OEM fuel rails which have had the conversion done on them.

They`re £150 on an exchange basis, they refund you £50.01 once they receive your old rails. So £99.99.

I`ve just ordered a pair of the high flow rails from Japan for £105 delivered. 2-3 Day delivery.

Blimey if thats what they charge for OEM then its a no brainer, and buy the flashy billet rails. A mate of mine did my OE rails for nothing so not that bad for free.
