Hey guys. Anyone have any input on silicon radiator hoses? Im going to replace mine and am looking for red hoses. Who do you think makes the absolute best and most durable hoses for a 99 GS n/a? Thanks

Well get a brand is a good start! Samco and a company in the UK called sfs hoses do eclipse hoses! I run samco as alot of other do as there history is good for products and work well in motorsports

I have them and they have been great for a year or so. I had second thoughts before I got them now I wouldn't go without them.

Mishimoto makes great hoses! I rock them and very close to the manifold and no problems.

Is OBX a decent brand?

OK folks, did as mch research as i could looking for radiator hoses. Looked into all the brands listed and there are dozens for turbo motors. Only hoses ready to order are from local retailers or the OBX brand. Samco offers but they are 5 weeks to get. Just want to double check with you guys as to if there are any other brands i dont know of-

1999 eclipse GS 420a

Thanks!!

You can get Gates Blue hoses on Amazon or from a vendor like Treadstone or even Ebay or your local Oriely Auto

"Absolute best and most durable?"

Switch to AN fittings and hose.
