MY03 JDM STI, fuel filter advice needed please!
Hi guys
Hoping you can help me out before I spend more money than required. I am doing some minor bits to the my car before getting it mapped and one of the things suggested was to upgrade the fuel filter to a Mocal one from Think Automotive (just round the corner from me). I went down there and asked for one knowing they are about £35 and quite small as shown in the link below:

However, the guy at Think said that the above is just a pre-filter and that I would need the following too (£75):

I am now confused as I was only told to get the £35 filter and a few of my friends who also have Scoobies only have this filter. Can you let me know your thoughts please?
Just to let you know, I also have a Walbro 255 which will be fitted soon. Any help you can give would be appreciated.
Thanks & regards

Fuel filters are service items, so unless yours is due for change.... don't bother imo.
As regards to Fuel Pump.... the JDM Newage pump will cope with a lot, but considering the age of your car, prior to a remap, it maybe worth changing (if only for piece of mind).

I did change the filter with a OEM one a couple of months ago when I had it serviced. I have the walbro now anyway so for piece of mind, I will get it changed, thanks.
