Review on ๐Ÿ”ต Mishimoto MMHOSE-SUB-ANCBL Ancillary Hose Kit - Subaru Impreza WRX/STI 2001-2005 Blue by Robert Tirona

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not suitable for 2002 WRX.

While the seller (Revain in this case) claims it will fit a 2002 WRX, that's only half the story. Of the two bleed hoses that go into the ports on the TMIC, one fits and the other needs some massage. One of the radiator reservoir hoses fits fine, the other (goes to the overflow pipe) is deformed and much larger in diameter than the factory hose. It had to be cut, bent and will not fit the factory clips. The turbo coolant return fits fine but the reservoir hose doesn't fit exactly, maybe they moved the overflow reservoir on later models but that's far from a mistake. I have 4 pieces that don't even come close. fits everywhere, 2 needed a massage and 2 fit well. A VERY bad fixture for this overpriced piece of junk.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires socket
