PorscheOriginal Factory Front Radiators Coolant Hose Set (997 and 997.2 GT3 and GT3RS)

This product fits all 997 and 997.2 GT3 and GT3RS models (2007-2012) including GT3RS 4.0. This is the complete set of radiator hoseses for the front three radiators, and does not include any of the hoses for the rear of the vehicle.

For the rear hose set, please view this product (2007-2008 997 GT3 and GT3RS) or this product (2010-2012 997.2 GT3 and GT3RS).

Why would you want this? To put it lightly, a modern water-cooled Porsche engine has a plethora of rubber hoses that deteriorate and wear over time, so we always recommend replacing them when your engine is out for a major service if the vehicle is 10+ years old, or has significant mileage, track days, or heat cycles. When the rubber does eventually wear out, you may find a significant coolant leak, requiring another engine-out service for what could amount to a single rubber hose. We always replace every rubber hose in the engine when doing a major service on a vehicle of this age.

Note: For this product, we may not have the complete set ready to ship and delivery time could exceed 2-weeks depending on availability. We recommend planning ahead of time for this service. If ordered, we will update with a delivery estimate within 48-hours. Products received may include slightly different parts than what is shown but we will do our best to include every hose required.

This kit includes the 10 coolant hoses for the front radiators of the 997 GT3 and GT3RS, or 997.2 GT3 and GT3RS (2007-2012). The kit also includes the 4 "connecting" sleeves and hoses. You will need to remove the bumper cover to install these, and we recommend replacing or servicing the radiators and coolant system at the same time.

Pair these up with fresh new CSF Radiators (center here, and left/right here) and throw some screens to protect them (for 2007-2008 997.1 cars) and you'll have a better-than-new cooling system at the front of the vehicle that's ready to go for another 100k miles!

Included:

• 10 Porsche Original (new) molded Factory Coolant Hoses (upper and lower hoses for left and right radiators (4), center transfer hoses (2), primary inlet and outlet hoses (4))
• 2 Porsche Original (new) Connecting hoses
• 2 Porsche Original (new) Connecting sleeves

Not Included:

• Radiator fluid
• Radiators

Also recommended:

• All hoses and o-rings in the engine bay (997.1 or 997.2)
• On 997/997.2 GT3 & RS models, we also recommend replacing the plastic oil cooler tubes with our stainless steel pipes (GT3 version link) to ensure there are no failures later due to the weak construction of this original part.
• We also recommend inspecting and possibly replacing the Thermostat, Coolant Expansion Tank, Water Pump, Camshaft Position Sensors, and Spark Plugs while working on the coolant system.
