The two smaller hoses have been on backorder through Nissan which has slowed us getting them to Samco. I am trying to get them here in the US and my contact is trying to get them in the UK. Whoda thunk'd it would be so hard to get some radiator hoses????

Once Samco gets a hold of them it should be a short while to get them produced and out.

Finally my Nissan hoses have arrived! Packing them up today and shipping them to Samco Sport in the UK. They are just sitting on their hands waiting for these, so it should be a (somewhat) quick turn-around.

Latest e-mail from my Samco Sport contact:

"Hi Scott,

Just to let you know the hoses arrived here today, I will get them straight off for tooling.

Keep you informed as to the progress, thank you for your help."

Default Finally!!!

The final set of hoses are on their way to me! That means that the complete set (4 hoses) should be available from Samco Sport in the VERY near future!

Here's a quote from my e-mail and the picture they sent:

"Hi Scott,

Just a quick email to let you know that the remaining hoses will be posted out today; please see the attached photo of your hoses.

Let me know when you receive them, you have the only set in the world at the moment."

Yeah, can't wait to get 'em and put 'em on.

Sooo, since the G35s have the same engine these should fit them as well, shouldn't they?

Great!

I have run Samco hoses in two of my cars and loved them! Definantly a "peace of mind" product as their bursting pressure and maximum heat tolerance is worlds greater than that of stock pieces, not to mention they really dress up the engine bay nice!

Definantly get a group buy going for all 4 pieces (im guessing thats all 4 of the main hoses on the HR?)

I'm in for a group buy for sure!

nc, I told them that when I post this the first questions will be "when and how much?!" I'll def let you know what I find out. You (along with the rest of us) have been waiting a while for this.

Paranoid, my oil cap is a GReddy cap. You can get them everywhere, but I warn you, it's a bish to get off sunk into the engine cover that deep.
