still got one seal - part no.91233-PT0-003 - think its the balancer shaft seal - didnt need replaced so i didnt use it so its up for grabs free of charge - let me know if its any good to you and i will bring it with me next weekend.

Should have the spoon V2 chip fitted by Monday - car feels good as it is so really should shift along nicely once its in place. Just need to get the intermittent brake pedal creep sorted - guess thats a priority now :roll: :)
yeah mate ill take that off your hands :lol:
cheers

I finally got the fm true short shifter fitted properly today.
The main problem was to getting the oem gaiter to stay in place which i managed to do with by using a collar that i found. I had to spray paint a few bits. I dont know quite how to say this but Graham (Indigolemon) gave me the new knob.Thanks.
I also changed back to the oem rear clusters at the weekend im not 100percent sure if theyre better than the aftermarket ones....will wait a few weeks and look at it again.
After this we went for a run - it sounded brilliant the lude and Norton running together -we set off a few car alarms along the way :oops: :lol:

yeah no flames on the Norton :)
Fitted a pipercross flat panel filter today to help the lude breath a bit better - the old paperfilter wasnt too dirty but the rubber seal around the edge had perished - it was a cheap copy of the oem one so you get what you pay for.
Im also contemplating changing the back box over to my OEM Stainless one - its not that i dont like the one that there but the rest of the system is OEM apart from the Solid fab Decat pipe so maybe the OEM box will help restore my loss of hearing and a few more ponies. I will give it another week or two and then decide.

I didn't realise how different the Pipercross panel filter is to the K&N.

Had one for a while, not bad. Mine needs a clean again!

Where did you get the collar for the gear gaiter? That is just what mine needs!! I haven't been able to work a way around it properly yet.
