Posted January 7, 201015 yr comment_305448 Long waited braided radiator hose kit finally available from us It was very expensive and hard process to make them just like original ones. These will be also available from limited suppliers shortly . MSA will be one. It looks and feels like original with high quality rubber and material. It is made by one of Nissan's supplier in Japan. It looks just like Genuine Nissan original braided hoses that are no longer available for a long time. New Old Stock hoses are not as reliable anyway. It fits 1969-1973 240Z It is only sold as a set only this time. (*Upper hoses fit all 260Z and 280Z cars.) Opening special price at $159 including shipping for US main island. $25 for international shipping. If you wish, send payment to support@jdm-car-parts.com, we will ship them right away!

January 7, 201015 yr comment_305467 that's a little steep but i would definitely consider these based on the similarity to OEM. been looking for an aftermarket solution to at least get close to replicating the original braiding to apply to unbraided currently available hoses.would it be possible to get the rest of the NLA hoses (brake booster vacuum hose) done by the same company as a special run?there might be enough of a demand to warrant a limited production run seeing as they already have the braiding knocked.

Now braided heater hoses will come next. It will be little more complecated because of the metal mold. But heater hoses and streight bypass will be done by spring.....

January 8, 201015 yr Author comment_305478 How about a braided brake booster hose? I can make one if you do not care about me running a brass wire inside. Very silimar material cost about $45, and $45 of my labor for the booster hose. See the picture here, all my braide hoses except PCV and carb pipes ones, are hand made. I could slip-on braid material and dye it, and make them, but labor would be too much for anyone...!:laugh: It is not as practical after all...........
