This hose has been specially developed by BakerBM as a direct replacement for the top radiator hose found on the 106GTI & Saxo VTS.
BakerBM have developed their I.D. reducer which is an integral part of this type of hose. The I.D. reducer directs the flow of water around the Heat Exchanger and means the high efficiency of the Heat Exchanger is retained.
This hose is part of the 106GTI/SaxoVTS hose kit but can also be purchased separately here.
The hoses are made from 3ply Silicone (4mm wall thickness).
Joints in the original gearchange rod setup contain plastic bushes that wear over time, making the gearchange very unprecise and leading to rods popping off and leaving you stranded on a side of the road or track. Our rods are steel-jointed with securing clips that cures both issues.
We have designed and manufactured this bush to offer a firmer option than the standard item (e.g. reduce engine movement), whilst still retaining some compliance compared to our Grp.A Bush. This product compliment’s Grp.N Full Engine Mounting Kit.
Location: This bush is located within the fork which connects the subframe to the lower engine bush.
