Induction hoses

[MattPlaneCrank]

I received my new induction hose kit today from Racing Green after a long wait. I have to say it was worth it just for the original look! I know a lot of us have converted to the short induction but I love all the purple.

I always thought the hoses looked a bit clumsy as they changed size/shape and lacked the engineering look that the 4.2 had.



although that purple certainly brightens up the engine bay.


I see ACT announced on their instagram that they now do Carbon Fibre air filter housing for the Cerbera

True, I'm sure.

Just celebrated my 32nd WedAnniv but the current Mrs Cerbera is starting
to worry that I've spent more on BlackBeauty© than I have on her .
(...and I've only owned BB for half that time )

They were already fitted when I bought the car but they do look like the ones on the RG website.

They do look like they evolved organically on some alien planet I agree!

Were they purple?

[pmessling]

Look very nice

I fitted a blue set when I first brought my car. Unfortunately didn't take long for them to start discolouring again. Shame as they are expensive.

[pmessling]

Even though black ones discolour



Think a set of these would make the hoses look awesome.

[Mr Cerbera]

Oh go on then, Pete, Quote me up for Luxembourg !

Just not 'feeling' my white ones

[pmessling]

I'll send you an email.

Oh yes my brackets are corroded and cracked, Racing Green don't have any originals available. How do I get a set of those?

I've sent you an email Matt
