Samco, SFS and Pipercross already make them mate.

[Stuart]

and a chap on mig makes most colours

[Turbo Dan]

SFS will be producing them, at the moment only Samco do a Kit

[General Baxter]

for which car mate?

nobody does a 1L kit ;)

[Turbo Dan]

Only GSi, basically I need to get feedback so SFS can make a decision about producing a coolant hose kit

i need a 2.0 16v set :D

turbo chris on mig does them... i designed the kit :twisted:

[General Baxter]

why would another company produce the same kit as Samco it might be cheaper ;) but

Samco have a good product so we would need good proof that there better ;)

[General Baxter]

[Barn]

so your to blame for one of the worst fitting radiator hoses EVER!!!

[Turbo Dan]

I ordered a set of Samco hoses for mine and they took over 2 months to turn up, thats S**t when you pay that kind of money for them.

SFS hoses are just as good quality as Samco and they wouldn't take 2 months to turn up either.

[Barn]

not bothered...I'm not in a rush so I'll be going for Samco's

:+:

[Snowface]

it takes to months because they have to make them first, someone said on a similar post.

If u get them direct from samco it is much quicker.

[benji]

how much is a set and what do you get?

[Breeny]

I agree with the SFS houses.. they did a group buy for the Renault 21 turbo owners club. They looked far better than the samco's due to using the same coloured material throughout. You'll find that the Samco hose's are all red underneith with a different colour on top.

SFS also produce a bigger range of colours..

which one???? :roll: :o

[Ben]

the top hose we used was awful. we had a GM one and one of chris and the GM one was baout half the size, we had to bend chris's like mad to get it even close.

[Ste_Nova]

humm.... it was a copy of a cut down 1.2 carb pipe.... might be that the stuff chris makes them out of isn't as bendy as the standard pipes

[Turbo Dan]

The top hose in the Samco Kit is completely different to the GM hose, its worst because of the turbo conversion on mine. I sent the top hose back to Samco with the GM hose the only thing they done was cut a inch off the end. Hopefully it will fit this time.

I will take the GM hoses down SFS this week and get a rough price on a Kit.

[Ste_Nova]

if you are moving the rad then it is worse.... i'd recomend a 1.2 carb tophose for use with headlight washers for turbo conversions

Samco hose's are all red underneith with a different colour on top.


Is that how they're made now? Mine are blue throughout.
