Radiator+Heater hoses

[gtst25]

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone here's changed radiator/heater hoses in Brissy area lately?

I've been told you can get radiator hoses cheaply but heater hoses?

Just wondering prices and where from?

This is for a series 1 '33 turbo.

Thanks!

What ever you do don't go to Nissan to get replacement hoses.

I went to get a replacement for the top and bottom radiator hoses, they wanted $69.00 for the top and $100+ for the bottom one..... mind you this is after the dude behind the counter told me he didn't even know what a skyline looked like

I just laughed in his face and said sure you don't.... and the price on the hoses WTF?

I can get silicon hoses for cheaper than that, walked out still laughing.

Anyway to cut a long story short Repco had exactly the same hoses ..... $15.00 for the top hose and $22.00 for the bottom hose.

Don't know about the heater hoses sorry.

i payed 20 bucks for my top radiator hose from nissan. you will also find that your radiator hoses that are for r31 skylines will fit the r33's ect

heater hoses can also be sourced from nissan or a wrecker that isnt lazy

Or, just make custom ones???

Thanks for the replies fellas,

Looks like I'll just do what I did years ago on my silvia for heater hoses- pull them all off and take them to repco to find some from other cars that are fittable.

Summer's here - my silvia's heater hose burst in the middle of summer years ago - luckily I was standing in front of the car and saw water coming out!

Cheers!
