  • Where can I buy intercooler piping couplers?



    The little blue things in the pic.
    Bought some piping, seller said they would include old couplers but I wouldnt mind getting new fresh ones. Where can I get some? tried ebay, didnt see any. Maybe my search terms were not good.

    thanks!

    There just silicon straight hoses so you should find out the diameter of the pipes and then get the appropriate size for them. I have the autobahnn88 for the gtr and they measure slightly over 3 inches, not sure on the gts.

        Buy or borrow a vernier clamp and measure the OD (Outside Diameter) of hardpipes, etc.

        Be careful of cheap intake hose joiners / couplers as they can be single ply and fail (crack) under higher boost levels. Should be at least 3 ply. You can look at end of joiner and see how many plys / layers it has. Best to buy silicon (factory is rubber) as it handles high engine bay temps.

        Good brand is Samco silicon hoses and is used on GTR's, F1 racecars, Nascar, etc -



        I think they sell them in kits for GTR, etc.

        Some of the part numbers for hoses on GTR, GTS, etc is mentioned here -



        I have Samco on my car.

            The above mentioned company export to other country's, so should be able to order a GTR FMIC coupler kit from them.
