Because of this, the hose he bought was too big for one of the bungs and he had a leak still. He ended up having to buy an OEM hose to make sure it would be the right sizes.
I'm still convinced the hose I took off my car and the one I replaced it with was the same diameter on both ends.
Just take your time and know what you're up against and you will be fine.

I had to fix one on a 92 nx and a 91 se-r ...both cars had the hose with 2 different diameter ends.Maybe Nissan changed it in 94 to make it the same???
I tried to use the larger size on both ends but it was really hard to get it to stop leaking entirely.
I ended up getting the correct one off a parts car....come to think of it,I robbed it off my track project,so I need to get one from GregV I guess.
