Wow good price .Yes they are great did you get the brackets with the can?

mine are 15 yrs old and look like new.

So do the headers.

 

Pardon the expression, but I was "admiring your pipe" at Newark last year 😂

Hmmm, I don't think so.  To be honest I didn't really get time to have a good look - just pulled them out of the box in excitement to snap a photo, so the bracket may well be at the bottom.

My current system uses one of those U-shaped exhaust brackets bolted to a piece of flat bar which is attached to the bobbin.

 

I'll check in the box later and if not will get back in touch with Mark

although have just bought a titanium VTEC pressure switch delete from Exo Racing as my current switch (not used on our standalone ECU's) has started to weep.... 

Is that a posh word for expensive bolt?

Going to have to try and make them last more than a year this time

Not snap, but four new tyres for me today. Rainsport 5s for my 15” wheels to give me a winter option aside from the 13” R888Rs.

Yes, a shiny £15 titanium bolt 😂😂

 

I did try and find a "normal" bolt but it has a 1/8 BSPT thread and nobody seems to do one with a large enough head to hold the o-ring in place 🤷‍♂️

Not the postie, but a mobile tyre service to fit my tyres. Not sure when I will swap wheels as I’m really enjoying the r888rs, but the Rainsport 5s make more sense to get me through the winter.

They are a great tyre..you will have fun with them.. wet or dry

[Stuart Davis AO - Devon Cornwall & Somerset]

Thank you . Given the current weather, I think I'll pop him into Winter guise and fit the tyres, roof and doors so I'm ready for anything.

 

On a separate note, I'm trying to find a replacement centre cap for one that fell off when out driving. Sure I won't find an orange one but all can find currently is in the US and they won't ship to the UK. It's an LC35 Team Dynamics and they seem like rocking horse do-do unfortunately.

Sounds like a good 3D print opportunity

Have you tried the Monza Team Dynamics centre caps?

I’ve been trying but I can’t find a file for it and my attempts at scanning it have not been very successful 😟
