Afternoon gents,
Check it, i am trying to work out a way to run the breather hose into the intake pipe.
i would rather not have anything that could come loose in the intake. Such as washers or nuts.
here is the intake.

i am considering using a plastic 15mm male union with silicone for extra air tightness.
any suggestions welcome

OMG I am laughing hahahaa, it won't fit the correct way either with that 2.5" silicone 90* hose as it's 2.75" diameter.
Lol nice intake derpppp.
To answer your question,

As to where you can get these from..
clicky here for EBAYBut you are looking at 2 weeks and at least $40 (the cheapest is from the tougefactory) for what is basically a barb fitting.
or PM simon/lokiel or billybunter and see if they have any left
http://mx5cartalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=57&t=41091&start=89Maybe take the pic emily_mx5 supplied and got to your local industrial hose joint and see if they have suggestions/alternatives.
and because I couldn't resist...

Anyone else in Sydney want one of these fittings? Found this ebay listing with reasonable freight per additional piece.
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/380190716997?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 I will split the freight with anyone else who wants one.

this was a VERY CHEAP option.
