Hi guys,

I'm swapping my beehive to a 2nd gen oil cooler, and i'm having some trouble getting some lines made up. All the places around here only sell imperial fittings. As I understand it, I need 16mm 1.5 thread banjo fittings, and one 18mm 1.5 thread. I can't even seem to find any online vendors that sell these fittings. I am looking for crimp fittings because it should work out to be much cheaper than AN lines right? Anyone have any ideas? Or know where I can order these fittings?

Thanks, Matt

They have a lot of hoses and fittings. I haven't used any yet but will need to soon.

 

Try to find a shop that specializes in hydraulics.

I had some lines made up at a local shop to move the oil cooler in front of the radiator. The price wound up being roughly the same as buying pre made lines from Mazdatrix, but the length was custom, and there were some extra swivel fittings included to clear the radiator mounting shroud.

They had catalogs to order all the necessary fittings plus the right tools to crimp them, and they could use normal hydraulic hose or SS braided.

 

You can order the fittings from mazdatrix or racing beat. then take them down to your local napa and they will make the appropriate hoses. When i mean fittings i mean the ones that will convert from the metric that go into the cooler and engine
then napa will supply the ends that attach to the fittings with the hose made up.
An fittings are the same as jic fittings. rx7doctor
