I want to know where to buy the fuel line for my Z that connects the fuel rail on both side, along with the adjoining piece in the middle.

Courtesy Parts has them herehttp://www.courtesyparts.com/3....html

One piece is not sold and you have to buy a 56 dollar hose and cut it...really that's s***..

This guy here bought a single piece and used for all....cutting to spec.

He said its OEM, anywhere on the internet to just buy this Nissan fuel injector hose from in bulk....or do i need to go to the dealership and if so...i would need the dimensions wouldn't I or else they would try to sell me the single pieces just like courtesy parts right? HELP PLEASE

ALSO....is it possible to replace the middle piece under the throttle cables without removing plenum....it looks like you could feed it down into there

Most auto parts stores sell it by the inch. Make sure though you are buying high pressure fuel injection hose, which is usually between $1 and $2 per inch. The Nissan dealership should also carry it. I think when I redid mine I used something like 4 feet total including the ones that feed/return the fuel rail at the filter/return line.*Make sure to buy Nissan hose clamps unless you can reuse yours. They aren't cheap but most of the aftermarket ones are garbage.

Cool...my auto parts stores around here are clueless to what i need, i think ill spend the money and buy about a foot and a half from the nissan dealership with the clamps. I am only replacing the hose that connects the input and output to the fuel rail and the one that connects the two fuel rails.....which speaking of that...can you get the one that connects the two fuel rails without pulling the plenum? looks like you might be able to feed it up under the throttle cables with a lot of cussing involved....possible at all?
