BazzaAlpine Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Hi all, Does anyone have, or know where to get, the rubber hose to connect a HKS style BOV to where the stock one is at the moment. Also need something to cap off the other end while still keep it looking tidy. Would prefer in black. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsween Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 To cap off the end you can get a rubber bung from a walking stick. A lot of people have used this i believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BazzaAlpine Posted February 21, 2011 Author Share Posted February 21, 2011 Considering how hot that can get I'd be a bit worried about that :s oh and a bit of a bump. No one knows where I can get a proper hose from? Got this BOV sitting in the car and I want to get it fitted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsween Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 What size is the outlet on the HKS bov? The stock one is 19mm i believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BazzaAlpine Posted February 21, 2011 Author Share Posted February 21, 2011 At a guess this one was about 30-40mm? You could actually slide the stock pipe into the opening for the HKS one. Will measure it properly later. I was under the impression there were kits out there that you could buy with the pipe and bung Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsween Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Well you're going to have to get a reducer from ebay or the likes, measure it and find out what pipe you need. The vac line should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lude Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 ive got walking stick end on mine, fits perfect, look a bit shit tho! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 HKS with a 44mm inlet?? That can't be right. Is it the proper Supra fitting that is on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Its 34mm from the other thread Even that can't be right, not if it's similar to HKS. Is there a pic on the other thread? Linky? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djg99 Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Just looked at thr fitting instructions The joint hose is 19mm. I may have a spare rubber cap as i had an extra one in the pack. There 20mm. Will have a look and get back to you :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Looks a little bigger than normal... not sure which car it is designed to fit though. Best idea would be to get the proper Supra fitment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BazzaAlpine Posted February 22, 2011 Author Share Posted February 22, 2011 Yeah I've been re going through images of other peoples kits and it looks like they are using the stock pipe and the adapter comes out at a 90deg bend. Clearest pic I can find: So looks like the adapter will be no good but still leaves me looking for the kit. They seem to be sold only with a BOV and not seperately...drat.

BazzaAlpine Posted February 22, 2011 Author Share Posted February 22, 2011 I have seen a 2 pence with tape on it on here somewhere lol I'm having enough trouble with the car as it is. Knowing my luck it would drop off, bounce around the engine bay a bit and then wedge into the alternator, short it out and set light to the car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BazzaAlpine Posted February 24, 2011 Author Share Posted February 24, 2011 Bit of an update. Found that the HKS part number for the bit I want is 71002-AK007 and there seems to be a couple of places in the States that sell them (http://www.autotuningstore.com/HKS_Super_Mega_Flow_Replacement_Element__Universal--product--31646.html). Just seeing if I can find someone in the UK / Europe that can get one for me before I see if these guys will ship to the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
