Hey guys, hunting after a manufacturer that makes heater hoses for Hondas, mine split the other day and leaked coolant everywhere, now I have a makeshift one in place for the time being but obviously I'd like to replace the rest of them asap. Does anyone have any ideas on where I could start?
Cheers,
Vik.
Why don't you just go to a wrecker and grab one ?. I'd suggest pick and payless here in sydney open 7 days but Your from qld surely they must have something similar. Doesn't have to be the same car just scavenge thru till you find something the right size on a car.
The silicon sets off ebay aren't too bad. They're not that costly as well..
gates?
I don't wanna go with anything second hand as they could be in very similar condition, and around here there are next to no wreckers either which is shit. I've checked ebay but I've had no luck (still pretty noob to eBay lol ><) and I checked out Gates' catalog but they don't seem to stock actual heater hoses
Didn't look very hard...

Thank you Mr. Toda for that epic post, the reason I didn't find that (and my own fault for not even mentioning which motor I put in the car ><) is cause I was looking for B18 hoses. But obviously I'm retarded. Thank you however for linking it instead of just flaming me I appreciate it!
*Edit*: Also didn't look for USA sellers as I was in a rush to get it fixed, however I've sorted out a temp replacement (as mentioned above) so I'll give that a crack, cheers again.
Lol... no problem...
Paid for, should be here soonish. Sorry for all the noob shit I said rofl its been a long week, summer school with economics is melting my brain haha. Mods you can close if you want! Cheers again Toda!
you can just go to autobarn, bring in your old heater hose and they will cut up the same length/size heater hose for you. then you get a coil spring thing from them to set the angle of the hose in your engine bay. not that expensive too, under $20 i think.
Yeah I got the temporary fix from repco but if you try and fit it the piping kinks. Doesn't matter I ordered the hoses Toda linked anyway

I got the full kit with absolutely everything. They look pretty legit tbh but at the same time for that price lol I have my doubts, but they come with a year warranty so meh
Hmmm
Well a B16 has about 14 hoses for the coolant system, and I can only find Samco selling two hoses for the B16 or B18, and they costs about $130 for just the two. I think they use to do a bigger kit, which was about $370
I got my kit from here: http://www.artelmotorsport.co.uk/display-product.php
You get all 14 hoses and for a great price too! ($180)
