Wanted: Air hose off Vitara Intake

Post by bugden23 »

Hey guys,

i'm trying to track down a flexible hose of the intake off my Vitara (94' JLX, with the G16B motor)

its a real bitch to find, and even suzuki is having trouble locating one.

here's a pic of what i'm after, if anyone has one i'd be happy to take it off your hands

haha use more duct tape!!! its a zook not a mercedes!!! maybe also add some cable ties just for the zook effect.

a few wreckers here in syd will have the part u want,.. and they will courier them to u.. try suzispares @seven hills or suzuki4x4 @ dunheven

yeah when it comes to the air intake i think i'd prefer it done properly.

the snorkle is fairly useless if part of the air hose is held together by tape.

having said that though, sydney was a good tip.

Suzi Four wreckers had one and are posting it up for me
