Hey guys, I gots me a bit of a problem. I am currently running an aftermarket BOV and I want to go back to the stock one. I have the piping for the valvecover breather and recirc piping, and I also have the intake pipe from a Skyline.

The Laurel didn't come with a stock BOV, so the intake pipe doesn't have the fitting for the recirc lines. Well, unfortunately, the recirc pip won't fit right because of my power steering pump lines. So what I need to do is cut a small section out of the recirc line and use some hoses to get it all back together. The problem I having is I can't find anyplace over here that has universal hoses. I went to Autobacs, Yellow Hat, Nissan, and even the MCR tuning shop. No one has anything. Radiator hose is to big for what I need.

What I would like is for someone to measure the inside diameter of the BOV hose that goes between the BOV and the recirc line and see if you can find me a length of hose...about 8" long. If you can find that for me, and get me a price and a quote to mail it to me...I would be very greatful. This is the only thing that is holding me back at getting the Laurel somewhat stock looking. I have my inspection coming up in about 6 weeks, and I would like to get this done before my inspection.

Thanks.

-Neal

29mm on the OEM BOV snout, go to the hardware store and get braided industrial garden hose. It works fine.

sounds ghetto but we've all used that for recirc piping!
