    SamcoSport silicone ancillary hoses just released

    Just need a dealer / shop in the state to bring some in or arrange a group buy (with various colors). I'd be interested in a GB. I'm interested for the radiator set regardless, but it's kinda unreasonable w/r to cost to buy and import a single individual set from the UK to the USA.

    Can someone link me to a plug for the oil pan oil return?

    The original oil cooler return port on the oil pan's thread profile is M12X1.25. I suppose a non metric copper crush washer will work, just need to fit the OD of the male thread.

    The climate control system within the cabin is mostly integrated (heat and cool air). Only the heater core is potentially removable and not relegating the entire system inoperable. - and I think you'll need heat in Norway, n'est pas?

    *Need to Borrow/Rent* 7M Torque plate

    ^^^^ Gracious of you to make this available to the community It'll be wise to also collect a deposit of the full value of the plate to be on hold until the plate is returned back to you (in decent condition). Otherwise, it may not return ;)

    loooking for a carbon fiber front lip

    A front lip is a body part prone to damage. If I had the druthers, I'll opt for a fiber glass version since it'll be a lot easier to repair in the event damage do occur. And if the vehicle is a daily driver, then the risk for damage increases, and may just happen on your trip to the local fast...

    Silicon Radiator Hose Options - whats best?

    Dan, just as you, I had considered metal piping to replace the OEM rubber radiator hoses. But I'm hesitant because I don't like getting my arm scalded. From research, Samco UK list a 7MGT application for the radiator hose: SAMCO UK Product Applications Somehow it's quite difficult to source...

    Collector Car Insurance

    I insure one of my supras with the same company at the same agreed value, and deductibles, but my premium is much less than yours. Don't be upset, because I'm many years your senior.

    Finally sumped my tank

    Hey Manny. Is there any brace attached to that welded plate? if not, then those welds will eventually fracture due to weight of the pump and vibration induced fatigue. You may not drive your car often for this to be an impending problem, but it's a certain eventuality.

    AEM EMS back order

    Could it just be that AEM is weening inventory so that they can release EMS V2 of this application? Definite speculation, but if this is the case, then it's all wonderful. Sure, you can use any standalone, but having a custom harness produced is definitely one of the associated irks that...

    Mizu radiator, fan shroud kit

    Hey HVYMAN, hope you realize that many modern cars, FWD and even those with forward facing engines, do use E-fan for cooling purposes. So, it'll be best for the OP to scavenge an example from of these cars. Try to snag one from a vehicle with 3L or more. W/R to HP gains / losses, it's...

    Mizu radiator, fan shroud kit

    All the debating may be worthwhile, but what's undeniable is that fans simply does not flow enough CFM to support the thermal extraction requirements of the vehicle, especially if modified beyond stock HP level.
