I am about to get measurements of all the cooling system hoses and make a list of Samco hoses for replacement =] Not making any promises for how soon I will do this (super busy with career) but, it should happen sometime next month. Here's the link to the universal straight hoses I will be sourcing from

last time I got mine they had to get the lower through the dealer, the upper is a straight hose just about so Im sure you could get a samco from another application that would fit.

I'm currently on my way to DC and won't be back till Thursday. I should be able to get measurements then. Unless someone else can give me a list of the stock hoses with inner diameter and wall thickness measurements and I can compile a list from my phone.

The hoses in blue are the ones I took measurements of. Wasn't exactly the easiest thing to get numbers for, but not the hardest either. I am going to do all of the hoses under the IM when I pull the engine out. I wrote the measurements for each hose in case you want to find a different vendor to source other hoses (cheaper ones hopefully. Samco is expensive!) But for simplicity, I put the straight and XtraFlex part numbers from Samco. If I forgot anything let me know!
Happy Tuning! -icajewler

Hi ICA......These hoses must already exist in the SAMCO catalogue.
I have the SAMCO hoses in blue, in the fitments as numbered #4 and #5 in your post image fitted to my Eunos Presso (MX-3).
They were fitted to a JDM Mazda Lantis (2.0LV6) which I picked up second hand.

I found out by emailing them that kit number tcs395c contains three hoses and the two big ones are a direct fit. I think its numbers 4 & 5. Maybe 3 & 4. Anyway, its for a 2008 gtr. Here's the link
http://www.samcosport.com/usa/car_kits.asp?make=Nissan its like 16th down the list or so.
