I'd be interested and dropped my engine out yesterday. There are hoses lying about everywhere :lol:
Happy to send them as samples, just let me know what and to where,

I'd probably be interested but all hoses seem ok at present and money's a bit tight, also, have a few rust issues, clutch issues that need addressing first!
Would probably want all hoses if I went that route rather than just radiator hoses.
what happened to this in the end?
Hi, what's the latest on this if anything? I'm still very interested! I've also just spotted this on ebay which I didn't think was available?
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Toyota-MR2-Mk1-Sa ... 7C294%3A50
I'm also still interested! Does anyone have any spare standard hoses they can donate to this group buy on a loan or something? (Given Paff is disappearing soon... :( )
Hi . I don`t want to muscle in on anybody`s act, but I have contacted Samco & the do supply a kit via their agent Merlin Motor sport at Castle Combe, for £197.04 including VAT & carriage. . Most colours available. Would do a group buy of 10 @ 10% discount each in separate colours. & ship individual requirements direct. Problem is they need cash up front. Provided we got cash from 10 members that is no problem. Take a look at Merlin`s website & access product no TCS379/C & let me know if you are interested.
Cheers Richard :D
That product code relates to the Mr2 Mk2 REV1 non-turbo kit.
The one on ebay is the mk2 REV1 kit also.
They DO NOT yet make a kit for the MK1.
Thanks Chris. The little B***!!`s I specifically asked for a MK1. Sorry for the confusion. I will "Speak " to them at our next visit to Combe in September.
Richard :oops:
I still think china is our best bet for these. the companies out there that i spoke to seem to think they could make one for about the £100 mark all we needed was a full set of hoses to send them and a minimum order of ten or so to make the full kit and the designs worth while. :+:
Hey Tiny could you find out for definate and if so do you have a set of hoses??
Sorry guys, got a little busy closing up some jobs before I left and trying to sort out my new life so I can hopefully stay abroad.
I've got some lads over on twobrutal (Alun J and marksman) who have all my contacts details now or you can speak to Anthony at SFS performance direct if you needed to. Might be worth a try.
Is anyone doing anything about this? Its eight months since it was first suggested.
I was just thinking the same thing, I'd love this to get off the ground!
It's just a thought, do you think there'd be any point in us all emailing Samco direct? When I did this a few months ago I was told they were considereing introducing a kit for the MK1 but hadn't got round to it yet and couldn't give me any timescales. If they start get enough seperate enquires though it may well be enough to persuade them it's worth producing a kit?
Here's a link if anyone wants to give it a go :)

Hi all
Here is the reply from samco
Hi Colin,
Could you send in a full set of hoses off the Mk1, labeling each hose with
details of its function and location on the engine. I can then give you a
quote for the hose kit.
Best regards,
Mark Hale.
Anyone got a spare set to lend i only have the ones on my car
Colin
sounds good are they definately blue or yellow?
And is that price including postage?
I feel this one's maybe a little dead and cold at the moment.
Looks like there was plenty of interest if you can convince anyone to revive it though. :)
Hi
I dont know if this helps anyone but my car is currently in pieces with some of the hoses off, if you are still looking for hoses to send off?
Just a couple of questions:
how long will they be gone for?
Which ones do Samco need?
What information do they need with them?
Let me know if this helps.
Thanks. Becky.
is anyone still interested in doing this ? :shifty:
Yeah I'm still interested if it's still going ahead??
id deffenatly be interested if we can get enough people to get costs down :+: id be mor ethen happy to send hoses to them if they need them to quote ?
I would be interested
I would still be interested.
I am still interested
I'd be interested, half of them probably wouldn't fit but still. :D
I would also be very interested in these. :D
I'd also have a set.
And me! I'll be replacing as many hoses as I can, including Vacuum hoses. so anything to help the process along is great!
count me in as well !
If this is still on the cards I would be up for a set of Blue ones
Colin :+:
is this still happening?
Not sure what is happening been i while since i posted and as you see no reply but i am still up for a set of hoses
colin
Count me in :)
Hi all,
since things did not seem to move, I've contacted Samco directly and linked them to the thread to show them that there was an interest in the kit.
They are ok to manufacture it as long as they get a complete set of hoses (as written before) but so far nobody has sent them anything.
Since I'll be taking the engine off my car this summer, I offered to send them my hoses for them to assess the feasability and give us a price and the number of orders required to make it happen. But if anyone has a complete set of hoses available by all means send them to SAMCO, that will speed things up.
Good one :+: got no spare hoses but am still interested if the price is right
Colin
i think ive got a spare set og hoses .. but they have all been mixed up between my new mk1 and my old one ... any one got a drawing or a pic of what a full set is for the mk1 one and ill sort this out and try get the ball rolling with it ????
If this can help...Quote:

gives you a rough idea of the shapes
surely One of the eBay breakers (not sure if they are on here) could wip a full set of hoses out of a scrapper in no time to get this sorted once and for all.Quote:
