Gents,
Just need clarification on something.
Are the Gen3 turbo top and bottom radiator hoses identical to that found on the GD WRX?
From what I can tell, the top hose appears to be the same, though I'm not 100% sure on the bottom.

I can't answer directly Jimbo but perhaps you could use this site to compare part numbers?
Or even download the Mackay hose catalogue and compare? (It will also give you the ID at each end of the hose.)

If I told you I was a compulsive liar, would you believe me?

The silicone GD hoses on mine were a straight fit. No trimming required,

... mmmm but numbers are different.
TT hose numbers match a Gen3 2.5NA top hose and GD WRX bottom hose.
4490 is the lib part - lengths slighty different and the lib has a extra bit of protection.

Hey mate. There's a pic in my thread comparing the stock Gen 3 and GD top hoses. The GD one suit my engine and rad combo better but both did technically work fine.

Gen 3 RX is on the left and GD one is on the right.
yeah it was too close for my liking. I don't even think I ran the engine with the RX hose.

There is 2 different ones for a rx, both mackay ones are above, the longer one is longer in the section around the pulley so it sticks out more.
