Hi, just a quick question, I know the evo radiator hoses differ to the gsr, but does anyone know if the other water lines are similar like the heater hoses and the ones that go to the throttle body etc
Thanks
Thanks

I'm after one of those silicone hose kits, I think I've found the radiator hoses but I doubt I'd be able to get the heater and others, so you think they would bend a little and fit on jack? I guess the silicone is a bit bendier than the crusty old rubber, anyone have photos of both so we can compare?
I used the 2 x GSR heater core hoses with the 2-litre conversion in my car so it can be done. But they let go during its first hot summer due to age I guess, but they visually inspected fine with no cracks before installation.
I also cant begin to tell you how many guys I know who have had the OEM plastic heater core elbows perish and break too... so when it came time to change my hoses I used the ol' noggin.
Instead of getting OEM rubber hoses again, I bought some wire reinforced silicone heater hoses plus I got custom made stainless heater core elbows made up too.
Also used silicone radiator hoses as well.
Its just an alternate solution to the OEM stuff and would be stronger, more reliable and last longer - lets see the hoses or elbows fuk up now eh? lol .

what are heater hoses??? what the hell is a heater? I guess i'm just tougher than you young ones. (I just wear a jacket!)
think of all that weight I'm saving? all that water thats not there. And no bloody hoses blowing when your miles away from home.
I think they were shagged from factory.

I'm already hot! ask my wife.
When you race there is no time for heaters and aircon.
it's a race car not a girlie car, you should just borrow your sisters car.
pffftt.
