Samco Hoses for the A610

I need to replace some of the hoses on the A610 so was looking at replacing with Samco hoses. I notice that Samco offer the full range for the GTA up to 1992 but don't have an offering for the A610. Has anybody changed the hoses on their A610? Do the GTA Turbo hoses also fit on the A610. Your help is appreciated!

Unfortunately not, they are a different internal bore size and shape.

Cheers. So is the only option new from Renault then?

No real possibility of the water hoses as they are all different and the tooling is too expensive.

However there is scope for a turbo kit and these are the main ones you see.

The main turbo hose is the same as the GTA but not the intercooler hoses. If you want intercooler hoses (to help make a full set of Samco turbo hoses for the A610) then I will try to get some made but the first batch will be more expensive due to the tooling cost.

RAOC are authorised Samco dealers and I am prepared to do this at cost price as I would like a set myself and I know a few other people that may be interested. However we would need at least 5 firm orders.

Approx cost if 5 sets are ordered £200.
Approx cost if 10 sets are ordered £150.

This is the cost of the two intercooler hoses only. The main turbo hose is extra.

Let me know and I'll get the ball rolling.

By the way the first set of white GTA hoses arrived today (for Paul Sage's Europa Cup replica project) and they look superb and very different!

I will definately have all the available hoses - turbo kit and intercooler (if you can specify colour then I'll have yellow!). Just let me know if/when you go ahead and I'll pop a cheque in the post! Thanks

p.s. Did you receive the membership application from me?

Fairly sure your membership application has arrived. Will check.

No problem for yellow it's a standard Samco colour.
