Hi Stephen,

I hope that you are well? How's the weather with you guys?

Just wanted to keep you updated on the progress of the hoses, basically we received the orders from Options so no issues there but we are running late on getting the kits out. I really want to get a set over to you for trial first which should be early to mid next week.

The shipment for the group buy should have been going this week to options but due to a manufacturing delay they won't go until their next shipment in 2 ~ 3 weeks, sorry about this the products for the exhibition display has slowed things down.

Kind regards,

Mark.


I dont think we were really expecting them until Late Feb-March anyway. I told him no worries but if he felt inclined to make up for the delay to feel free to include keychains/stickers/ SAMCO shwag with the shipments. We shall see.

Thanks Stephen for all your work on this. and keeping us all in the loop

Cool, thanks for the update!

At least by then it might be warmer for the install right?

Alright found a closed garage to work in! It's a friends new house... hope I don't spill. I'll load up on cardboard sheets from work. My "rental" fee is "plenty of good beers", can do. Not ready to buy the coolant just yet, but I'll post the partnumber to order from online honda parts stores here for safe keeping. My local online dealer store has a gallon of the type 2 for $15.38 right now. OL999-9011A. (I'll need 1.9 gallon or 2 gallons for a full engine overhaul per the 2007 shop manual)

Thanks for the info. Figured late March, if we were lucky. Have had experience w/special one of orders before. One of them missed date by six months, but was worth the wait.

Thanks for the update Stephen, getting anxious. Again you the man

Another big step forward:

Hi Stephen,

I hope that you are well?

Today the first set of hoses and matching clip kits will be sent over to you for a trial fit, these are 100% usable and are manufactured as the production sets are made so no problem should you decide to run them on the car.

Once you confirm they fit as the stock hoses I will get your custom camo kit built up along with the hoses for the group buy. Please feel free to do as you please with the blue kit, if you wish to sell it on, feel free to do so.

Attached are some photos of the kits, please feel free to post them on the forums.

Best regards,

Mark.

Hey Mark,

This is great news! Thanks for the images, the hoses look super sexy. Just from the images I can see that they look to be the correct shapes with the bends and everything. The difference between the two lowers is noticeable and recognizable.

I have my work space and coolant jugs all set up. I hope to be able to confirm fitment for you quickly, at least with the 07-11 set (TCS-565C & TCS-564H). I would like to confirm that you are also sending the 03-06 (TCS-564C) radiator set, yes? All three part numbers/kits that is. I'm setting up the opportunity for another member with that model year to do the test fitment and report back to me. Mainly for that years lower hose. Still ship all to me as I want to still take a look at them first.

And thanks for setting this up like this. SAMCO Sport is a first class operation, I'm glad I reached out to you guys. Please put my Camo set at the end of the line for production. I'd like for my guys to get there's out first, if this makes a difference.

Thanks again,
Stephen
