Anyone use eBay silicon hoses on their car? Look ok and seem great value.
Are silicon hoses just silicon hoses or are these much more likely to fail??

last week I bought the cheapest 90degree silicone elbow I could find off ebay and it don't really look or feel much different to my sfs/viper performance stuff I have fitted on my s13.
is that a complete 'kit' for £55???
im trying to think of whats different between redtop and vvt SR20's
I’ve got a full set of cheap ones(gplus) for 40 odd quid and have been fine for 2 years with a high pressure 1.3 bar cap on it only thing I found was the clamps were terrible some wouldn’t do up some leaked after a short while so I bought a few assorted boxes of good clamps from frauds and they have been fine ever since
Most don’t include any of the under manifold ones though so I’m still looking for some of them
The other option is roose hoses @£118 for the set, think that has the hoses under the plenum but need to check

Cheap silicone will degrade quicker. Probably not in the time you have the car. But do you really want cheap parts on your car?

It’s a total guess without data. They will likely be ok for the time you have the car. But I’m not a risk fan.
I've seen a cheap set on my mates R34 go from bright red to nasty faded white/pink in not a lot of time. I bought a set of SFS coolant hoses for mine, only the 2 rad ones. Personally I can see a difference between the more expensive brands. That's not to say the cheap ones will fail, but they're definitely not the same quality.
Perfect. Cheers for the feedback
