They only have the slave hose.
Don't know how they compare to the dealer.

^those are for RX-7s...

OOPS... thanks for catching that.
Fixed :)

ok cool, nevermind just called dealer only $56 not bad, figured it would be alot more since the spark plugs for this car retail are $50, everything for this car is just way to exp , luckily i work in a shop tho so i can get parts alot cheaper, only paid $15 each for spark plugs, no way i ever want to pay $50 each lol

has anyone else had a hose leak tho? just wondering

Just as long as you use the NGK RE7C-L and RE9B-T plugs, you'll be good.

which one are you talking about ?

The pipe? or the rubber hose between the 2 metal pipe that feeds the slave ?

50 bux? hell no.

and I paid 10 bux for my sparks, but that was a "ebay sales" about a year ago. got like 3 sets or something. Im on my last set already. I can get the plugs now on amazon for around 16 bux each shipped :)

as for the "anybody else has a leak" issue. well, your car has 70 something 80 K miles. so it might be a good idea to replace some of the rubber hose. including your brake hoses.

oh wow nice about the plugs, not sure which hose my tech just said its the one from the master to the slave. how often do you change your plugs by the way? i did my at 75k which the book said to do and they were hella trashed

wtf? 75K for plugs ????? where the fuck they said that ?!?!?!?!

u suppose to change them every 30K or so. I change mine every 10-15K.

I"m at 49,xxx miles and i'm on the original coils and plugs with no misfires(knocks on wood hard) but there are all getting changed when I get the cash for both!

keep knocking that wood until u get a nice and big "knock" then ur engine goes Kabooom .... :lol:

49k? yeah pull plugs and see what they look like lol. i work in a shop so we have software (alldata) that gives all info on all cars etc, it said the book calls for them to be replaced at 75k along with cabin filter, the cabin filter and the plugs were pretty bad, so yeah i agree and think i may do them every 15k as well. the plugs are easy to do your self and cheap on ebay, lift car pull off driver wheel and with an extension you have a direct shot to the plugs. also one question has anyone ever tried those "performance chips" on ebay? and if so are they legit or totally bogus? lol. ive had many cars but never ever dared to try them and was wondering if anyone here has tried them on the 8 or any car for that fact and if they are legit or not? i probably shouldnt ask but figure what the hell lol, always wondered just never asked or tried.

and be sure to torque the plugs =)

and i dont think you have the replace the coils right? not until they go bad? or is everyone here changing them every so many miles? i just changed the plugs and plug wires

Alldata charges for that, don't they? Ask for a refund. The book says to replace plugs at about half that mileage, and cabin air filter every two years.
