You need to get a -6AN x 18mm adapter (I think this is the kick size) and a -6AN adapter for the pump and then you can make your own pressure hose using reusable fittings. It will cost about $40 bucks for the adapters, fittings and hose.
The cool thing about these hoses are that they are repairable. I havent had a hose made since I started using them. The fittings are available in a varity of angles etc. so you can plumb it any way you want.
The components look like this....

You can get this stuff alot of places, but these guys know their shit, have all kinds of hard to find metric parts, and have great prices. http://www.ormebros.com/

metric/standard conversion solution
i have set up 2 toyota/gm power steering systems and have found it easiest to cut the hardlines that come out of both the pump and the box about 2-5 inches out (basically before they turn into the soft line). i then braze a standard flare fitting to that (you can get flare "plugs" and drill them to the size of the hard line). i go to my local hose/fitting shop and have a standard hydraulic hose made with standard flare fittings on each end. each hose cost about $10-15.
i like it this way because i don't have to order/wait for parts that i "hope" are the right ones, and i can do it at midnight if i choose and be running tommarow.
good luck, just my $.02

I can't remember which is which anymore, but I do know I was wrong and its not an 18mm, its a 16mm....I just went out and measured.
I have a receipt that says 16mmx1.5, but I think that was for a kick ps pump with the banjos.
I'm not sure what the pitch is for the toy stuff. The size is the same for both ports on a Celica box and the pressure side of the FJ box. The low pressure fitting on the FJ box is bigger.
I got all of my adapters from the link above.

I have to make these handy little pics casue im always messing up what all the sizes are and then when i adapt etc...
Scawfish is dead on ! AN stuff rules.
soapbox....
Its a bit more $ up front, but once you learn the basics and learn what sizes you have/need you dont "waste" anything, I keep a supply handy to do general stuff, that and its easily repaired...
I order AN stuff from summitracing, speedway aka speedwaymotors.com and reciently from http://www.anplumbing.com/ great $ on earls stuff,
I think people have preferences becasue thats what they have near then, have used before, or have been exposed to. For me its easier to order a pile of fittings and hose and build it, rather than take time off of work to goto a shop and explain to them what i want and have them do it for me..
happy plumbing...
