Thanks! I don't really need to know personally. Samco is already figuring it out themselves. I was just updating everyone on what I found out regarding the G37 kits fitting the 370Z.

Is samco going to just release a hose kit for the 370Z?

Yeah they will be.

Ryan@Forged · 09-08-2009, 02:42 PM

The UK Samco site has it listed on their site meaning it will most likely only be a matter of time until it is available to us.

http://www.samcosport.com/uk/car_kits.asp?make=Nissan
(6th item down)

Also keep in mind that the listing on the UK site only includes 2 hoses as of now where the G37 hoses have 4. I would be willing to bet the 2 hoses included for the 370z set are the 2 larger hoses already available for the G37. It just will not come with the 2 smaller hoses, one of which does not fit.

Ben, this is where the information came from when I talked to you on the phone. I apologize for any misunderstanding that may have taken place.

That is exactly the case. "Quick fix" by Samco while they fix the issue.

Ryan,

Thanks for the update and your help the other day...hope they come out with all four hoses..seems a little stupid to only replace 2/4 hoses

...I guess well see.. thanks again

Would changing the hoses be for apperences or does it help with cooling?

Savage08 · 09-09-2009, 01:11 PM

doesnt help with cooling per se...hoses are less likely to fail, can stand more abuse, last longer and look better..

check them out at forgedperformance.com, they will take good care of you.

NewYorkJon34 · 09-09-2009, 01:29 PM

Is the 370Z kit out yet?

Not officially in the US, but it is listed on the UK site. We use the G37 hoses which includes 4 hoses, 3 of which fit. When the 370z hoses are released they will only include 2 hoses. So if you get the G37 hoses you get 1 extra hose. That's the best way I can explain it right now. the 2 main G37 hoses will work just fine.

Are the 2 hoses in the 370 kit, the same that's included in the g37 hose kit? What uk site, do they have any new parts on there?

Ryan@Forged · 09-09-2009, 02:52 PM

To the best of my knowledge they are identical. Savage08 has them installed on his car and they fit just fine

Here is the link to the Samco UK site. 6th item on the list:

Ryan, I still only see the 2 hoses listed for the 370z. I thought they were offering 4 by now, as they did for the G37. I figured that they would have corrected that one hose that did not fit properly yet. Do you have anymore information on it? FYI: I would be interested in purchasing a set. Hit me up with a PM when you get a chance.

Are there any other competitors to SAMCO that we can replace the hoses for a bit more aesthetically appealing?

I ended up going with some Mishimoto coolant hoses. Just the two hoses though. Upper and lower radiator. They come in black/red/blue and are available right now through any Mishimoto dealer. Fitment is excellent and I have had no issues on or off track with them.
