Pegasus does not carry the kit for the rx-7...I've been lazy lately..Pegasus gave me the following contact :

BRITS (British Racing Imports and Track Services,
707-935-3637).

Let me know what you find...I want some blue ones..myself..

The rad hoses for the FD3S are still made by Samco over here in the UK - was going to get some myself as i know someone who works there. Im quite willing to organise a group buy depending on how much you guys say you can get them for.

Let me know !

Its only listed as a two hose kit , so top and bottom rad hoses only. Im not sure that silicon hoses would last any longer than the stock rubber ones for the turbo application......but i can ask the question !

Can someone tell me if they've come up with a price yet ? Then i can say 'i need to beat this price'..........

https://www.rx7club.com/vforums/show...threadid=33692

$150 is the price, check the thread for more details.

Probably didn't ask permission and that's why the thread is now deleted...

I did email it to Jason !
Ive emailed him 4 times since last thursday on a couple of things, and PM'd him too, and got no reply on anything. Figured no reply was good, and put it up there, but i guess he must be active still !

Well you know the score, $150 delivered to your door, red or blue. Might be able to get it cheaper by changing the carrier, but im not too keen on doing that . I havent found anywhere in the US selling them anyway, only a place in Japan listing them for $200.

I take paypal, which is probably the best way of paying cos theres no risk to you (your credit card insures you against my fraud).

Will re-post to Jason again.......

you can get the Goodridge Silicon hoses from www.summitracing.com for your FD, part number is
GS53-B(this is a kit with both hoses)
the -B denotes blue hoses, -p will get you purple hoses, -R will get red hoses and a -Y is yellow hoses. Much cheaper than anything else everybody is mentioning here

Note: cant order these off of summit's web site, your will have to call them at 1-800-230-2030
