5SFE Aftermarket Radiator Hose Options

[Tigawoods]

Searching around the forum there isnt a thread that is specific to 5sfe aftermarket rad hoses.



The lower piece of the ebay silicone hose kit for the 7afe can be used for the 5SFE's lower rad. It is a little long so some needs to be trimmed off.

I havent been able to find anything for the upper rad hose other than Mishimoto's universal hoses, which I havent had any experience with so I am not 100% sure if it would adapt.

Any input on other alternatives?

ive always seen that site, just wasnt sure if I believed it because how dedicated were they to try out all those hoses to see if they really fit rather than eyeballing if they fit. But its a good try, im sure it should be no problems, maybe slight stretching or cutting of material perhaps. but if this fits, you know what that means, you don't need to get this product, it somewhat confirms that you can get a SAMCO version instead.
