Routing a hose up the front of the fuel tank is a source of frustration for many customers, and for the rest they find it it just passes right on through. I can route a fuel line up the front of that tank in under 60 seconds but I have heard some customers take days to do it.

The trick is that you have to be assertive and have a good flashlight. It really is easy, I swear. But if you are not getting your line of sight in there so you can see the obstacle you are navigating around, its just not going to go.

Remove the wavy shape chassis brace to make your life much easier. Then you route the hose straight on up next to the stock one. It will bump into a ledge. You reach up to guide the hose end behind the ledge, and feed the hose up more. Then that is it, it just pushes on in. You can try giving a gentle twist back and forth on the hose to help reduce friction from the PVC coating. Try not to twist it so hard to kink it though.

Attaching pics of how I routed the S1.E hoses on Justins 370z.
