Has anyone here installed Z1 silicone radiator hoses? I'm having a hell of a time getting the upper hose all the way on the the radiator neck. Here's where I have it so far, and it's not moving no matter what I do.

Hope you are making a ton because the taxes, cost of home ownership in California are nuts. Its why I moved to Tampa from Boston.

Also, just wanted to say hello. New member here, I just had my first Z delivered to me yesterday.

My best friends dad had 2 back in the day (I think they were a 90 and 92) and I always wanted one. Figured I would treat myself this year to one.

I had a buddy move to Tampa from here, he was like 22 years old, barely starting his career, so he was able to easily move. I'm on a retirement countdown and it'd be nice to live in Tampa without having to work. I had a house in Tampa which after the crash was worth $22K, I wish I bought it back! Home prices here are nuts but so is what they pay you for work. Best paying state but then you pay out in buckets too.

Soften the end of the hose in hot water, you will find it will go in easier, let it cool down before you put the clamp on.

Thanks, what about if coolant is already back in the system? I tried warming the engine up and have the coolant soften the hose from inside as that seems to be the place where it's stuck, not much success there either. Would a hairdryer work?

Hey brother,
Sorry I have been off for a while.. Most shops will not turn Slotted or dimpled rotors. The gaps tend to chip there bits. I was trying to find a place a few years back but was unsuccessful in Tampa.

A quote from my buddy at Absolute Automotive, " Hell No " he didn't want to risk braking his machine.

If you do find a place please share it with us.. That guy will get some serious business from all of us !
