Coolant Hose Kits Any Info/ideas?

[frogman]

Just wondering if anyone has bought a silicone coolant hose kit off Ebay? JustJap only seem to have kits for RB26 on their website, but I'm after RB20t.

They are almost $300 for the JJR kit, & around $150+post from China, with 'made in china' quality I guess?

Anyone know if Nissan do a normal rubber kit, or do you just need individual part numbers? Are they expensive?

Any info on what others have done would be good, I've just had the timing belt/tensioners/water pump done & now the old original hoses can't handle good pressure, with a leak down near the starter motor already.

On a bit of a budget, so thinking of just getting my mechanic to do the ones above the starter motor(looks like it needs to come out to get access?) & just doing the rest myself.

cheers

Just jap sells the one for an RB20 from memory. In any case I've got one fitted to my RB20 on the cefiro from them. I'll see if I can find the packaging/code for you if its still somewhere in the garage.
