metal fuel pipes

[solarice]

Just wondering if anyone knows where i can get the metal pipe thats used for the fuel system on these cars.

I need to replace the corroded ones underneath the car, and nissan want £30 odd each for them (theres 3 pipes in total), so im guessing you can see why im trying to track down the same stuff

ive read some people (other owners clubs) had used copper pipe as a replacement...anyone know any reasons against doing this ?

Cheers,
Kris.

I've replaced the brake lines on both my cars with copper pipe, it's easier to work with, doesn't rust away like steel pipes and is relatively cheap, try the yellow pages under motor factors you will need a pipe flaring tool as well if you are doing it yourself, I replaced and bled up the entire system on my March in about 4 hours.
