Title: Sizes for Silicone hoses...
Post by: trevtubby on September 01, 2008, 07:46:27 PM
heya,

im about to change my standard plastic piping for new hardpipes.

But i`ll need to replace the silicone hoses with some nice blue samco hoses.

does anybody know what sizes i`ll need?

also, will I be able to replace the crossover pipe with a custom made pipe?

but this pic just happens to have the crossover pipe im talking about.

they are usually black plastic, but im wanting to have a stainless steel pipe made up to replace it.

Why don\'t you get a late spec y-pipe than it will be metal anyway?

not sure where to get one from, ive seen them for sale on rx7store but its like 220 dollars, which is a bit pricey.

i was going to get a complete set of hard pipes made up inc the pipes for the induction side for 100 quid.
