Default can i use my gte ps pump?

hello all im finally getting around to my gte vvti swap, i know everyone keeps the n/a powersteering pump and a/c compressor when swaping motors but my p.s pump is close to dead so i wanted to keep the gte ps pump. i wanted to know if the ps lines matchup for do i need to order a new line or can i order an aftermarket braided steel hose.

you would have to use the tt ps pump because the oem sc300 pump will be in the way of the intake manifold... so it seems like you got it backwards... i would thing the lines would match up but then again the can is relocated closer to the fuse box so if anything they would be shorter and you can go after market if you want

PS lines should be similar, the hard lines come off the pump not the canister.

Here's a supra engine bay. notice the PS reservoir to the right of the FFIM with fluid lines leading to the pump. You can see the hardline coming off of the pump just under the FFIM
