Power Stering failure

Recently I was going trough some series of traumatic experience with my Ride. The latest casualty was my Power steering. The pressure hose connecting the fluid and steering rod was give way. I guess it may due to aging, well the car is almost 10 years old. What else to expect from the car.
First of all I tried to look for replacement none could be found. To my surprise the secondhand pressure hose they always sell together with engine as whole unit. As for the Nissan Japan I was not very sure on how to get it. It is good enough that my mechanic manage to find a way to modify the connection in between the pressure hose. Here goes another day another chapter for my Skyline ER34GTT.
