What local Stores sell Vac (Silicone) Hose by size and length?
 

Looking for the standard vac replacement hoses... silicone, preferrably colored....

curious if any local stores would sell the 4mm/6mm/10mm lines. (I.E. Lowe's or Home Depot) I know autozone has "kits" but that has a lot of hose that wouldn't be used.

Any idea where I could pick some of this up in AZ?

Who sells this without having to mail order it?

Exactly

Probably the only place would be NAPA. However, I don't believe they are open on Sundays. If you have any High Performance/Rice shops in the area, they will most likely carry some.

NAPA is open, I just called them, but they only have standard, which I can use, but they also only sell it in packs, hrmm need it by the foot =/ Or a pack that is made for RX7's lol.
Most rice shops are only open M-F =/

I got mine from www.mcmaster.com they are located in southern california. They sell it by the foot and have it to you within the week.

it's on page 98 if the catalog, or do a search for silicone tubing. make sure you get the firm wich is 70 duron. hope this helps

Actually they have warehouses in several places: NJ, Chicago, Atlanta, SoCal. They usually ship same day/overnight - it's rare to see anything take more than 2 days from them.

Be careful with those Autozone silicone hose kits. They suck ass. I bought a kit for my turboII and a few of the hoses near the turbo either melted off or melted shut. The silicone they use for those hoses isnt good for turbocharged cars. I yanked out those hoses and replaced them with good quality silicone hoses designed for high heat applications and never had a problem with them again. My friend has the autozone kit on his n/a and its still working good.

I also saw a WRX at SuperAutobacs and noticed they were using the cheapie silicone lines. Some of the hoses near the turbo were melted shut and looked just like mine. That car was a show car inside their shop.

Moral of the story: Buy good silicone hose and stay away from those ricer packs at Autozone. If the kit is $30 dollars, stay away. If the kit is $100 dollars buy it.
