Split hose mazda GTI

[azzamut]

Just removed this hose as its split.

Off a 1990 mazda 323 gti.

Where would I go to get one made the same?

 

[carmad.]

sometimes after market silicone hoses are easier got ??

 

[Coog]

Any out of the mx5 coolant reroute kit fit?

 

[stevieturbo]

Although not as pretty in terms of routing...surely just a bit of rubber hose would replace it ?

Or try Mazda.

 

[azzamut]

yeah thinking rubber hose as don't want to have to buy a full silicone coolant hose kit just to get the one i need.

Doubt mazda will want to know, any particular dealer ship more helpful?

Central Garages in Crossgar or Walter Young in Ballymena are probably the 2 oldest dealers in NI

Maztec in Bangor maybe? If he doesnt have one he would probably know where to get one 028 9147 8509

Why not ? It's a Mazda...they sell parts for Mazdas. Always worth asking despite its age.

Aye they are grand

 

[Coog]

Had one go in the MX5 and another went a few weeks later. Might be worth replacing the lot?

 

[Steve]

Is it a 323f GTi? Is so, awesome.. any pics?

 

[brendy]

Regular rubber hose, measure the inner diameter and match that. Most motor factors sell that kind of thing, cut to length so it doesnt kink.

 

[azzamut]

No, it's a 1990 BG 323 GTI non cat version. 140brake... same shape as the GTRs and GTXs used for rallying.

Think there is pictures in my garage

Still a cool car, cant be too many left about.
