Possibilities of a Club Group Buy opportunity.
I decided to get another L-Shaped Hose for my other ZT-T 1.8T which I plan to put back on the road come the warmer weather. So popped down to nearby FORGE Motorsport in Gloucester. Soon had another.
I enquired about the possibility of using an OE 1.8T Top Hose as pattern to tool up for a limited production run of a silicone equivalent. It was far less than I expected. Initially about £200 to produce the tool and depending on the size of the design, price for a minimum 20 off would be up to £20 each. Probably about 2/3rds that for the Top 1.8T hose. So mention this to see what others here think. Should there be sufficient interest in say the 1.8T Top Hose, I would be prepared to finance the project after taking a holding deposit for some of the small batch. Any unsold would sell eventually. |
I would be interested.

Looks nice but one thing to consider, is the silicone pipe OAT resistant?
Because OAT attacks normal silicone pipes. |
Simple answer is change to blue anti freeze 👍

That top hose from XPart is £58 plus vat. I had to buy one and only got it at that price thanks to College Motors.
Looks like a good deal especially if more owners buy up the first batch and reduce the cost even more. |

Sounds positive I think you can work out the colour I would want by my avatar

I'd be happy with the Blue, but Yellow would be nice for ole Yella.
