Clear radiator hoses mod... - Toyota Yaris Forums

THE ONE · 10-28-2009, 04:45 PM

Ok, this is a mod I found when I was surfing the web for some cool mods a while ago... It's kinda RICE for my taste. But anyway, I thought that maybe someone could like it, or maybe someone that is into the show could find it interesting. Just wanted to share it with you.

Here is the link: (if someone's interested)

Not sure if they sell them for the Yaris or if they fit the Yaris tho....

hah sorry.. still in bed, not paying attention.. the posted pic just looked really.. duct taped on.. lol

Well technically they give you the fittings the glass tubing and basically nothing more to really help, it all depends on the owner to install properly, it really does look good on full blown show cars, but not just as a random mod.

Yeah, that's exactly what I think... would have no point of doing it as a random mod....

Yeah! I know... it looks pretty much like duct tape! It's also very funny that they did this mod, and didn't even paint the rusted radiator bracket! lol

hehehe

Well now they have cool stuff that you dont just need a show car for....They do clear (Pyrex) Velocity Stacks for Intake Manifolds, cool stuff!!!

Hey, that's nice... haven't seen it before...

But I have a question... maybe a stupid one, but anyway... where is the filter?? Or does it use something else?? I mean, how does it work?

Sabretooth · 10-28-2009, 07:34 PM

You know I ask myself this alot, but I really havnt bothered to research it, I just know that its a common practice to run ITB setups, and some guys have cover filters that slide over the velocity stack for when the car is being driven normally, it comes off for shows.

I want a clear velocity stack. That first picture is a Dodge Neon motor. I feel weird for knowing that.
