Yowser Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 (edited) who sells the polished intake/boost hoses these days ? Im after a set with black couplers, but can only find them on Z1 for $200 + shipping + duty. Is that my only option these days ? Im sure there used to be more available. - Smithy/DTA used to sell them, no more. - Ebay ones are still around but they are blue only. - CZP sell them, but blue only. - AMZ only sell the overpriced HKS set in blue.

aquanuke Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Dont buy the Z1 ones :censored: :cursing: Had mine a few months not even driven the car yet and the chrome is peeling off.. very very poor quality. Have emailed them to refund/return yesterday, not replied yet as its the weekend. But even if I get a refund bet they want them shipped back to the US at my expense. Quote

Only one way to go here mate. INJEN Google is your friend! (think I got mine from Luke?) Made from alloy so you can always polish out scratches etc. They are also designed to flow air properly. Quote
Al_andthe_beast Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Maybe i'm blind but they dont seem to be on the injen site? Quote

Yowser Posted May 15, 2011 Author Posted May 15, 2011 Injen - Luke does'nt list them, did he order them specifically for you ? Quote
Paul C Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 found this - http://www.importpartspro.com/z1ni30ttpoha.html :) Quote
Paul C Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Ah - forget it, there just Z1 jobbies that you have seen anyway LOL! Quote
Andy Isherwood Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Injen - Luke does'nt list them, did he order them specifically for you ? No they used to be on his website! If you look on the injen site there is a list of distributors on there. One of them must still have a set if they are discontinued. Quote
PhilP Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Injen - Luke does'nt list them, did he order them specifically for you ? If you find a supplier of the Injen set let me know. I wouldn't mind a set myself :thumbup1: Quote
Smithy Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 If you know a metal work shop who work in ally tubing mate, they really ain't that hard to do and more than happy to help with the "how to's" then simply purchase the black couplers. After making around 300 sets in stainless i had thought about doing ally ones and anodising them, look lush.... but then i decided i couldn't be arsed lol Smithy Quote
daZvert Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 (edited) I got a price for making some custom polished alloy ones and they were approx £120 for 2 for my N/A, obviously 4 needed for turbo, and this guy below sells different colour silicon tubing at various sizes, if i remember correctly he has the right size for our throttle bodies http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/51mm-2-ID-Silicone-Coupling-Joiner-Hose-Blue-Coupler-/130487482991?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item1e61a8fa6f ohhhh... but those Injen ones are lovely!!! Edited May 15, 2011 by daZvert Quote
Smithy Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Even tho the N/A only has two, they are 10 times harder to do, longer and with tee offs, done a few of those before too lol. What ever price it is for N/A ones, TT should be cheaper even with 4 of them. TT ones are real easy! smithy Quote
