Steel Braided Hose Question

UCYI3WL · 12-10-2002, 06:06 PM

I have put on several steel braided hose kits and have a question...Is there a different kit for imports than small block chevy's?? I have called several performance shops and they say just to measure the hoses to see...Just wondering if anyone knew off hand cause they sell kits ALLEGEDLY just for Integras on ebay:

Are the ones you talking about, the steel braid slides over the existing hose? I tried them once, hell of a time getting them on the keeping them clean, well thats another story..
