One of my dumb questions (there will be more in time no doubt)

[Pelvin]

Sooooo as some of you know i drive a V6 RA and i've recently got an alloy radiator. i want to upgrade my hoses to silicone but got stumped.

I found these hoses on TM but im not sure if they will fit in my car. I figured the smaller of the 2 will be fit the top of the radiator but the larger i don't know where it would go. The hose from the bottom of my radiator is also quite small :-[

Yeah but my current bottom pipe is about as long as the 's' pipe. the one in the pic is like twice the size

Yea?! Mm neva had ne issues wd my v3 or v7. Nehow as long as bottom hose is a direct fit...just cut it down ta size

[Pelvin]

*sigh* oh how i loath modifying hoses. Already have to make the y pipe shorter to fit the intercooler

[Firenza]

nice sharp saw or stanley knife blade should make modifying the hoses easy as.....

Those look like V7 hoses that go to the middle in the top of radiator...

Wrong ones for your car they both should be like that short one ish
