20V RWD Converson - Bottom Radiator Hose?

[Futo_gt86]

Car - KE70 Wagon

motor / part in question - ST20V

problem - Cooling System RWD configuration, Bottom rad hose needs to be some kinda universal flexible radiator hose?

occurs/started when (if applicable)- N/A

personal situation (if applicable)- N/A

Did a search, couldn't really find anything that was the same situation

Where can I get some kinda universal flexible radiator hose?
I went to Supertheif and they don't got jack, just a whole bunch a sh#t that i can't use.
Anyone who has done a 20V RWD conversion with stock 20V water pump and a 16V RWD alt bracket, what
bottom hose did you use and where can I get one?

Could just get a 90 degree metal bend ad get another hose. Never had anything to do with a 20V though,

[Futo_gt86]

Yeah, I figure that, but don't want the extra fail point in the join and extra clamps.
I really just want a single hose if I can.

Buy a good length of the flexible radiator hose and run it behind the engine mount. Then join with a piece of pipe and normal radiator hose to the bottom radiator outlet.

You can secure it with zip ties i had to adjust it a few times as it was rubbing on the engine mount bracket but works a treat!

I just prefer the stock hose + 1 joiner to a 90 degree bend. It shouldn't be failing so I don't have a problem with it

Yo got da rwd alt bracket der. put dat one rwd pump on der.

[Adsport]

most people use a thermostat housing as a joiner and a hose redirecter.

I think id rather have a thermostat...

expensive way of doing it

[Adsport]

the proper way of doing it


i fixed your spelling mistake




:P

[Sam-Q]

oh really, I think the right way is to not have the alternator on that side of the engine at all!

[Adsport]

well if it were on the other side it might interfere with the turbo system?

[Sam-Q]

no....

new version sits 20mm lower

[Nikkojoe]

would interfere with my a/c :D

[Sam-Q]

that it would, I guess another good way of doing it would be a hard line with joiners on either end

[Matt-AE86]

Would interfere with my life and what toyota would do to me if they saw my chunk of flat bar from bunnings not conan.
