Radiator hose - Could i make/buy this here
Hi All
Need some advise. I wanted to buy this for the scooby.
http://www.mishimoto.com/aluminum-ho...ru-wrx-01.html
After speaking to them, its gonna cost £150 plus import tax.
Thinking of trying to make it myself. Try and get some hose's (possibly samco) made to measure and then find some metal workers that can bend the pipe etc.
Advice please, anyone know people who could help me on this or am I waisting my time and will end up more expensive.
Thanks All

Would the connecting hoses not give it enough flex for the movement. I wouldnt have a pipe that was totally rigid - understood about the engine and rad movement

Thought about this but thought the bent pipe would look better. But now the issue of flex has come up - I'm gonna go this route
Two 90 samco bends and a straight pip. Last thing I wanna do is make something that will break or cause damage
Thanks for all the advice guys
