Phillpotts' Mk4 1.2! SOLD ON 09/04/12 :'(

[phillpotts92]

I can't find any 10mm yellow hoses only up to 8mm

 

[ALEXZ360]

Ahh that's abit annoying, I'll have to have a look around

 

[phillpotts92]

Yea. You can still do the other hoses you just can't do the crankcase one. Could do that one in black with a filter on the end.

 

[ALEXZ360]

May of found one, but it's pricey, and it says straight so ive asked if it is bendy enough

This is it http://www.jsperformance.co.uk/sili...nt-air/10mm-diameter-meter-straight-hose.html

 

[phillpotts92]

No that's a braided silicon hose by the looks of the pic and is like the ones used on FMIC's so won't bend. I think anyway.

 

[ALEXZ360]

Hmmm that's abit annoying
I could always use the 8mm pipe then cut a lilttle slice into it, the jubilee clip it, if I can't find a 10mm hose

 

[phillpotts92]

I wouldnt risk it mate. 2mm doesnt sound much but its alot bigger when you put the tubes by eachother. i thought the same but its quite a hefty size bigger. You could try it seeing as there is only air being taken in through the crankcase and not and liquids so there wont be as much pressure.

Im finding it impossible to find red fuel hoses at 6mm!! i found one opn apmotorsport.com but its 19.97 exc. vat per meter!!!!

 

[phillpotts92]

I have also found this but dont know if it will look shyt: http://www.auto-performance.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=131&products_id=762

I might do mine in blue and have a yellow and blue engine bay

 

[ALEXZ360]

Found some 12mm vacuum tubing in yellow so if i cant find 10mm then im buying that and just jubilee clip it on

 

[phillpotts92]

Nice! Next even harder job is finding a yellow fuel line! It's impossible to find a red fuel line let alone a yellow one!

 

[ALEXZ360]

Lol whats so different about the fuel line?

 

[phillpotts92]

Petrol eats through silicon so you have to have a reinforced braided fuel hose.

 

[ALEXZ360]

Ahh Right, Thats Probably Going To Be Expensive Then

 

[phillpotts92]

Yea but it's really hard to find. Only one I found was £20 per meter.

 

[phillpotts92]

Any opinions:

noo...step away from the m3 mirrors + your get followed by a taxi everywere

 

[phillpotts92]

I like the C/F though. And the Ibiza mirrors are boring. I think it may bring some individuality though.

 

[marksy93]

well each to their own mate but i think it looks chavvy, sorting thing you would see on saxos & 106s - ibiza are better than that!

 

[ALEXZ360]

I agree with Marksy on this one mate, the m3 mirrors are to chavvy for the Ibiza, why don't you just carbon wrap the Ibiza ones if that's what your after?
