I got the gaitor on ebay. Its from USA, was only £20 or something. Shift extender from Tegiwa and the mugen style knob was again on ebay USA. 8-)

New wheels not for a couple of months i'm afraid :evil: Need a new set of tyres and have a holiday i need to pay for in between.

Latest mod has already been done (partially!) Clue...it's in the last pic ;)

Well i didn't want to let the cat out of the bag so soon but a combination of my excitement and your lot's intelligence means i can't string it out any longer :lol:

Here are a few pics of the install:

It has been fitted to the car all along, but was disabled. I have cleaned it out and set it up to run but methanol is a tricky substance to get hold of so it's gonna be next week before i can get it. So at the moment it is running purely on distilled water.
The tank has Japanese markings ingrained in it for the levels you fill up the methanol (1part) and water (9parts)

First impressions are that when i hit VTEC i thought it went a bit keener than usual :twisted:

Need to try it with methanol added to really find out though :twisted: :twisted:
