Train tickets booked! Car is going to bills earlier than planned. Going up there on the 2nd march for a week to have cams installed, and a load of special mapping tweaks including gear based boost control + anti lag launch control! Looking forward to it.

Sequential box would be sweet mate, but there mentally priced.... did you enquire how much there offering is ?

I was thinking about a SQS sequential conversion - not a true sequential box but it simply converts the gearstick end to give the cables the right order. It has a microswitch that senses when your changing gear...i'm guessing it could be used with no lift shifting to change up but you'd have to use the clutch to change down.
Maybe the switch could be wired in parallel with your clutch switch to create a ignition cut long enough to slot in the gear - i'm betting Bill would know if it could be done :)

SQS sequential shifter is ace... and mated with one of their dog kits is awesome.

Awesome, just awesome! :D Can you explain how the clutch comes into effect? Do you have to put the clutch in to change down gear, or just up a gear or neither?

I use my clutch personally.. on going up the box you dont "need" to, and shift cut may be enough for flat shift no lift shifting... however.... I choose not to do this.

Few more bits going on the shopping list today.

1. 4 new decals for the centre caps of my wheels, mine have seen better days!
2. Need a new set of wheel bolt covers
3. Normad pillar pod, had the gauges for about 6 months and not had a pod to put them in

All the bits for my battery reloco have now arrived, will be tackling that this weekend. Just need to find the best route to get a 50mm2 cable through the bulhead :think:

PS - Also bidding on a new headunit on a well known auction site.

Ebay? :rolleyes: :lol:

Which unit? I have bookmarked my one which I'll be getting soon.

Wheels are being put on the back burner until the weather improves. I should have some for Bromley Pageant :whistle:

Nothing that special, Pioneer 4400 BT. Got to be better than the OEM unit! lol

Lol, finally upgrading! Can't go wrong with a Pioneer tbh mate. You'll need the fascia adapter as the aftermarket units are smaller than those beastie standard one's, lol.

I'm after a Pioneer myself but not that one.
