i didnt notice any, i just removed the belt as removing them fully is an engine out job! did you win the K/S kit on ebay by chance?

Don't personally see the point in balencer shaft delete on a road car for engine reliability. On a race/track car or 3 extra hp bragging rights then yes.

Did anyone get this?

I'm due a cambelt and thinking is this is the way forward?

I have it fitted on my Type S.
I asked Rich before he fitted it and he said he not really a fan of it, bolt are necessarily too large making it difficult. He said he would rather just stick with the H23 parts instead. But sees no reason why this should fail.
So far on my engine its fine.

I'm thinking of using one of these next time...did you source yours direct or through PAW in the end?

There's the whole kit (H23 manual) of eBay around ~£90 delivered. Or can buy (kiaspeed kit) from USA for ~£90. So I might as well go for the H23 kit of eBay now.
