Too many fake/counterfeit samco products out there?samco, now also hard to get original .....for air/vacuum hose can close one eye lah.
For hot pressurize water....get something better. i still using the black color one. hehehe....
All depends where you weakest point. In a brand new car probably the hoses. In an old car, hoses can be changed but a rusty worn radiator can be weaker....Isnt the rad that cant take the pressure, its the hoses.
To me no need lah! The normal black ones will do, used for years and years. The main one to look out for is the top hose. This is hot water return hose from engine. Bottom hose is cooled water return from radiator to engine so will last longer than the top hose. Others will be the bypass hoses, if old changed them too....samco, now also hard to get original .....for air/vacuum hose can close one eye lah.

Leakage at bypass hoses I once experienced before. The hose at throttle body there cracked. Water all flowed out when I am driving back from Kampar to Ipoh. Heard some weird sizzling noise and the RPM was idling up and down at traffic light. Decided not to risk it and stop by at Batu Gajah town area to see what is wrong. Opened the hood and a lot of white smoke is coming out but din't know what is wrong. Checked the water level before starting my journey so I thought won't be that. Opened the radiator cap later and found out all the water inside is gone. Later grandfather came to help and added water, found out water is leaking near throttle body there.To me no need lah!

electrical tape? tape is good, tape is great~That is why carrying some of those tape for wiring one, in the car is good. In fact help me once, coming down Genting top hose burst. Stop at road side, open hood, let it cool, find the leak, tape it up, fill in water then drove back
Sounds like a good idea for temporary repair until you reach a workshop. I'll get one of these tape next time. But I need more details on the type of tape?That is why carrying some of those tape for wiring one, in the car is good. In fact help me once, coming down Genting top hose burst. Stop at road side, open hood, let it cool, find the leak, tape it up, fill in water then drove back

Relatable experiences. Doesn't matter what your car is. Read before a blog about a R33 Skyline GT-R owner in Japan. Some of the things that the owner had went through with his car is almost same as mine. Bypass hose leaking, coolant all gone. Gearbox oil leaking. Even Skyline GT-R is not as divine and mighty as some online people claims.Yup, bro. pomen experience and expert too.....
