I've been away from the turbo Regal scene for several years but I'm trying to get one of my GNs going after sitting disassembled for 4 years. Needing an upper radiator hose since the old one is mysteriously MIA. Called Autozone. Nope. Not even listed. Same at Advance. O'reilly showed 2 left at their warehouse in Tennessee made by Gates. The Gates website doesn't even show it anymore and neither does Dayco's. I called O'reilly and ordered both of them since I have another GN to put together after this one. The dealers are closed this late in the evening so I haven't tried them yet but do they even have them? This is scarry! Am I going to run into this kind of thing with other parts? What are we to do?
