Looks like amayama cant get the part

they refunded me the money - no message tho - and no active orders showing!

I will see if i can get the J02 version from USA.

On amayama it say order cancelled due to production stopped

You place orders and then they find you stock - i think thats how it works

Ive ordered the part with J02 version from HondaPartsNow - will see what happens

TBH I'd just get some convoluted heater hose with the correct ID. Like this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Flexible-EPDM ... 8WxBq8x2rw

Yeah its not OEM but are you going to see it?

That's likely to rub and chafe I think, unless you install a load of extra brackets to hold and route it?

What I did was use the old hose as a sheath for areas where rubbing would occur. In the OEM position it doesnt have far to travel, 50-60cm? from the head to the JDM electric heater valve?

Just got a refund now from HondaPartsNow

so they cant supply the - J02 revision.

So it definately looks like this is a part you cannot get anymore

Its ok i can measure the outlet size on your old H22A2 head that i have here

TBH its been handy having that lying around

EDIT: Ive checked and the outlet pipe diameter is 17.2mm - bit of an odd size-
