Hey ppls,

Appropriate section I think.. :unsure:

Has any one came across a webshop or what not that sell black 4" to 3" reducers? I'm having a hell of a time trying to track a black silicon reducer down.

I really don't want to go blue... :wave:

I hear you - I'm replacing my blue joiners with black also (prefer the toned down look).

Turbo Hoses

Cheers

All up in black I'm after:

2" to 2.5" 90degree bend

4" straight

2.5" straight

4" to 3" reducer

Just Jap do the:

2" to 2.5" 90degree bend - $30

4" Straight - $28

TXS Silicon do the:

2.5" straight - $17

Definitely looks like I'm going to have to go offshore for the 3" to 4" reducer. I might harass justjap and see if they can get the 2.5" straight in black and a 4" to 3" reducer. :unsure:

No doubt some one in AUS deals with the stuff I am after. Just a matter of stumbling upon it.

I've settled on a place in the US.

Well priced have everything I need and postage is reasonable. otomoto was stupidly priced and JJ slug $8 per hose even if postage is combined, + they don't have everything I need so postage from 3 different company's was just silly.

See how I go, fingers crossed these silicon hoses are all good. I believe they should be.

Hmmm interesting, any idea where i can grab some of them t bolt clamps that they advertise on above site from cubes? I may just replace all my crappy worm thread styles with these

Cheers

I bought my 2" (comp outlet) and 2.5" tbolts from this link below on ebay. They are the same tbolt clamps that siliconintakes have.

I currently use the tbolts from pirtek but they are a little big and clunky. :S

The ones from siliconintakes and that ebay link are a touch more compact/neat looking which makes life a bit easier for the cross over/throttle body connection.

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
