RB25DET - PRP Hose Kit

[sycotix]

Hi all

Started routine maintenance today and had to take the cover off to get to the spark plugs. 

When removing the small pipe that goes from one of the top valves to the other it ripped as it already had a crack in it. You'll also notice the hose right beside it on the right hand side has a small crack too. 

Forgive my lack of terminology here still learning. 

I had already earmarked the hoses for replacement and found this kit: https://www.platinumracingproducts.com/products/nissan-rb25det-r32-r33-r34-heater-hose-kit

Does anyone know if this kit is worth the price tag to help upkeep the engine? Does it cover the essentials that get wear and tear?

I don't think that kit is what you want, as they list it as heater hoses, not vacuum / oil hoses.

 

The lines you're talking about are breather hoses.

Thanks mate that's what has me confused because some look so similar

It can be replaced with off the shelf hose from any automotive parts store. Keep in mind there's an orifice in that hose.

Cheers mate. I've found OEM will grab those

Just in case anyone finds this in the future, here's a diagram sent to me by Nissan to identify these hoses.

I ended up finding them through EFI Solutions though because Nissan reckons they need to order it from Japan, with a total cost of approx $110 inc. So it as cheaper with EFI anyway.

In case you haven't come across it, there's also https://nissan.epc-data.com/

Go by VIN or drill down into your specific model and year and it'll have references for pretty much all the OEM parts. In very similar diagrams. Linked against amayama as well for ordering. Though they can be a bit slow and can be better to search around to get the parts locally.
