Radiator Hoses

[funkymonkey]

Lads... came home today and pulled into the garage to the sweet smell of hot steamy radiator fluid. Looks like the lower rad pipe has a crack in it... do you guys know if the stock R32 pipe fits? I might grab the JustJap silicone hoses if they do.

Can anyone confirm/deny?

Otherwise I'll have to get the Gates hoses... anyone know who stocks em in Brissy? Only one i could find was these guys:

By the looks of it, i am 99% sure a R32 skyline lower hose would fit

Yup, just found out the part number for the bottom hose... 21503-72L00... which is the same as R32 and R33 GTR/GTSt.

Upper hose on the other hand is specific to teh Cef. Bought the R32 silicone hose kit from JustJap after talking to Trevor there.

The Mackay Automotive Hoses code for the lower hose is CH3214. Although their fitment guide has an RB20 A31 ceffy with a CH3237 top radiator hose as well, which is the same top pipe that an R32 uses.

Will try and fit the top one in as well, I'm fairly confident they're the same, but just have a minor difference in clearance with the radiator, which the aftermarket silicone hose shouldn't have a problem with.
