    factory ones are sillicon anyway, just not the pretty colours you see these days. Get a measurement of the turbo hose or even take it off for a sample, and go to your local repco, and ask to look it up in their MONZA catalouge. As for the top hose and the radiator hoses, try Karcraft in silverwater nsw, they will ship it out to you. 02 97379944.

    ps, i think the ones on ebay were bought form karcraft origionally and sold on through someone else.

    Couple of reasons . But the main is the land rover ones you have will not be at their best by now which means they will colapse on power (new one with still coplase where as the slicon hose don't )and therefore no so much air gets though.
    The other thing i did was to get the stainless pipe to replace the Kinked land rover one (which is kinked because of the steering box for the Left hand drive trucks). This is a straight though pipe and made alot of differance
