Hi all,

I am currently looking at getting some Silicon engine hoses made up to fit 3 E30 engine types- M20 Jetronic, M20 Motronic and M40 engine.

I am doing this for the Miltek racers at the mo, as next year I will be joining them.

The benefits over standard are durability and bling factor.

I currently have no idea on price, but it will be less that BMW rubber hoses, so long term alot cheaper!

I am speaking with 2 suppliers SFS and Samco, they are availiable in a range of colours and will be supplied as either a complete kit or as individual hoses.

So if you are seriously interested, please post below with what car they are for from the 3 above and I will get some pricing sorted.

Any Questions please ask

Jimmy

I'd be interested in hoses for a motronic M20 in blue

Im just after the big complex looking one that goes from the termostat round the distributor to the other side of the engine.

You having the smaller ones made too?

A list of all hoses your going to have made would be great :D

Cheers for the interest guys, i have about 15 Miltek cars so far plus you guys so we will be a goer.

I will be sending hoses off to the supplier and then will get an idea on price, they are looking at it as a sponsorship opportunity for our series so you should all benefit on this in terms of a good price.

Will keep you updated when I know more. Anyone else who's interested please post below

Cheers

You must have nice cheap dealers you way, full set over here is Ԛ£120 after a discount!!

Anyway I think we should be coming in nice and cheap comparitive- and they last so wont need replacing any where near as often.

There is a one off tooling cost but I think one of the manufacturers is loosing this with a view to selling the product as part of their range if we get them rolling.

They will offer all water hoses but breather pipes will also be avaliable if your interested.

I'm stripping 3 engines at the weekend of hoses so will be sending them off next week- and will then get an idea on price.

My favoured supplier at the moment is SFS over Samco for several reasons:

1) much more helpful
2) more local to me
3) not volume commited

Both are high quality and market leaders so ieither way we will have some top quality kit

Any questions please ask, any ideas on how the hoses could be improved over standard please say, and any more interested please post below.

Out of interest if we get a non volume commited price how do I go about getting these in the club shop???

Cheers

Looks like we will be able to list these in the shop at a later date, this group buy will however be at a cheaper price due to a bulk order.

I have spoken with Sal and he seems happy to list when we get that far!!

I am stripping hoses this weekend and sending off next week so I will update next weekend probably

Anymore interest?? not commited at the mo!!
