Besides the stock rubber lines does anybody offers ss braided lines w an fittings for the stock cooler?

Jeremy Himsel

I don't think so but you can buy/build your own pretty easily. Here's a link to the proper cooler/line fitings that so you can convert it to AN.

I built a set in under an hour for less then buying new rubber hoses.

That's what I mean how come nobody offers them? a braided line for less than oem line would that be something desirable?

Jeremy Himsel

I would think so. I've been making them for a few years now as I've needed them and never thought much about anyone selling them. Now that you mention it....I can think of a least one person that will have this original idea and sell them so get moving on them quick before someone else does.

I bought some of the kevlar lines from I think it was called Race City Parts. Found them on ebay, but they have a website. Much easier to work with than braided stainless.

I put in an RX-7 oil cooler, but you could easily do the same thing for the factory ones. Problem is, you have to remove the Porsche adapters, and run M22-AN12 adapters. Setrab makes ones for their coolers, Pegasus sells them for $11 each. I ended up using the small, thin O-ring that came on teh fitting AND the Porsche crush washer (yeah, I know - but it worked).

To my knowledge, the community at large still doesn't know exactly what kind of fitting Porsche used, and if it can be procured easily in teh move to AN/aftermarket lines. Note that JIC lines are much less expensive than AN, and are more than sufficient for the pressures we run.

Wow those are really purty. I wonder what a set of lines like those would cost?

lart951

Replacement oem lines run you about $ 300.00 without the hard pipe, with the cooler hard pipe you are looking at $ 350.00+. The braided lines should cost around $ 275.00 for a set of two.

Sweet
Does that include the Setrab adapters at both ends?

lart951

Yes, 4 setrab adapters are needed for each set.

what are the lengths of hoses used? Replacing my oil cooler lines has been the "next project" for a while now and it's becoming more and more imperative. I just want to make sure I have everything I need ready before I dig in... hose lengths is all I still need to know.

thanks
