Sadly I won't recommend you anything. I can't tell you what to buy, all I can do is give you prices and walk you through features.

My mate Glen has a fully bombed hx with Nfi on the plates!

Hey team, 
Anyone able to help me out, I'm looking to replace these 2 hoses in my Engine bay as one has a split in it, and the other is just the wrong hose and could kink easily.
The usual places (Supercheap etc..) haven't be able to help me. Any Advice?

 

Also, my Valve Cover Gaskets and Seals arrived today, will be changing them out next week probably.

Is the blue silicone hose just crushed or is it tapered. Although I work for epe I got mine from ozlink in Oconner. 3/4 " I/d clear with a s/s wound inner to stop the collapse. I went there to get get some s/s and Ali fittings but the minimum eftpos was $20 bucks so I grabbed the hose aswell.

I have been going to make the cam breather hose out of 2xs/s 90* bends with a straight in the middle but I am lazy.

The cam breather will look poxy with bent hose and not the 90* bends.

Can't remember and will have to check if it is 16mm I/d or 19mm I/d, (5/8") or (3/4). The bigger the I/d on the hose and fittings is better because the bigger it is it draws less vacuum.

DSC_0325.JPGYep it should be a 5/16" I'd hose. The one from ozlinc is obviously a clear one with a s/s winding. It looks bigger but is a 16mm or 5/8" I/d that has to go over the swagging. From memory it cost bugger all for a meter and you could do the cam breather in a loop for the time being to stop collapse?

Zoom in on the pic and you will see the mm pretty accurately. Also mypoxy electrical tape split cam cover breather. Lol

Nice and tidy engine bay dude. I like it.

Thanks for the help dude, you know your shit. :91_thumbsup:

The blue hose has kinked, it's not the correct hose, previous owner must've just slapped it on there.
I'll check out those websites and make a few calls on Monday.

It's a skyline, show us your previous owner. He needs a good and solid kick in the nut bag! Mate I had Blue discs, coil packs with the top of spark plugs hacksawed off and shoved in for contact, a heat shrunk wiring loom for the coil packs. Garden hose and evian bottle catch can, a ton of wiring that dropped out the bottom of the dash, the wrong bushes in the castor arms because they were off a 34 and codged in, split boots all round, the seats weren't bolted in properly front and rear, it was that low and out of camber that it had torn chunks out of the tyres so I lifted I't on the tein basics to 100mm all round , the battery and hicas ecu were toasted, the roof lining had dropped, water pump and timing belts were codged up, s/s braided oil feed to the turbo leaked with broken studs to the manifold and turbo, dump pipe was spilt, the centre had split out of the poxy chineese exhaust, radiator was trash, the carbon fibre b/pillar covers fell off, duckwing rear spoiler came off, battery was out of a Nancy's car, gear box boots were split, stereo and speakers were f**ked and didn't work, it's been mental, but she's fully solid and pulling hard now. My mate Dave has 30 years experience as a mechanic for reference plus all the looking up and research off the forums. Well worth it. I've owned 4 different v8's a bombed escorted and a jag. Love the Nissan the best of all. Turbo power!

I always try to avoid doing more work at work but dealing with those dickheads is ridiculous, super cheap, auto one, repco, auto barn, Bursons. I would like to help you but unfortunately I have no mechanical knowledge, qualifications or experience? Anything I've seen on here t-revs knows his stuff and could help you out better with knowledge advice and information.

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
