I am having problems finding an aluminum pipe for the upper radiator hose that connects my greddy r33 intake manifold to my sr20 koyo copper radiator. (the pipe should cross horizontally from the driverside radiator inlet to the passengerside manifold inlet)

im hoping one of u guys knows where i can buy one, otherwise i will have to fab one up.

thanks!

alright man, so all i need now is the upper radiator hose, the driveshaft, a maf sensor adapter, and a downpipe (with flange, gaskets, nuts, washers, bolts).. i dont think i'm relocating the battery just yet, unless if you can help me remove that ugly tray.. i might need to adjust the intercooler piping just a bit to fit this setup (hopefully not much). I also found RB calibrated tach's and speedo's (180mph) for our setups at lsauto.com

ill leave painting the valve & cam covers, intercooler piping, and intake manifold for later.. whenever you have time i guess.

will you be able to come over this weekend? ill have the wiring by then, hopefully. and uhm, sorry? about monday night.. i couldnt really understand/hear what was going on.
