Got ripped off, what other hoses do I need? pics - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Yeah so long story short I was buying a flywheel, engine backing plate, clutch and flywheel bolts, and all lines needed for a 5 speed swap from a guy (don't think he's on here, full name's ). Anyways he ripped me off by not including the engine backing plate, and only a couple hoses. I was expecting to get all the lines needed, but I didn't, so I'm wondering what're the names of the other ones I need?

Pics of the ones I recieved:

Any help is greatly appreciated!

eh its a custom piece.. the long piece you have there is the line from the MC acroos the firewall to where the Slave cylinder is... the smaller line appears to be the stock rubber line to the Slave.. The first pic looks like its cut?? the second pic looks like its threaded onto the long line.

Pretty much all the "lines" involved for what your going to do.. its just not stock.. and IMO gonna look crapp in the engine bay.. but i guess it'll work.

ps: i'd just get the stock hardlines from a junkyard or something.. last time i grabbed some it was 10 bucks including the slave cylinder.

you can buy your own brake lines, fittings, and flaring kit from any auto parts store. NAPA has a good selection. Anyone who works on there own car should have a flaring kit and know how to use it.

if you didn't recieve the stuff and you used paypal, file a dispute and get your money back. that's what i did when expressfuelpumps.com was still trying to fuck people over.
