CJ and AAM both have instructions posted on their sites.

Honestly the headaches you save from buying one of their kits would be worth it alone.

I went to the summit site and added every fitting and hose and the regulator and gauge in the CJM Stage 1 kit and it was $600. That doesnt include the billet rails, and the return correction fitting that is custom machined for the 350z/G35 fuel pump assembly. If you add in billet rails and the required correction kit, you still have to assemble all the lame twist on fittings with rubber stainless braided lines yourself since you dont have the crimping machine to build OEM quality teflon crimped lines.

EDITED

If you really need it. It's alot simplier to just to go with the CJM and not look back.

If it is so easy why do you need instructions.

You can piece most of it together but I have no idea where you would get the piece that bypasses the pressure regulator in the fuel pump module.

Just buy the CJM kit
