Nah mate, not at the moment.

Concentrating on getting some cash together for a TKO-600 box at the moment. Although i will try and pop into simons for a quick power run.

What the hell do you need a TKO600??? Please explain? I could understand if the car was a powerhouse but its no more powerfull then mine?

T5 is lighter and is the sensible option. Is yours a world class T5 with needle roller gear clusters?

Lets not take Scaffy's thread off topic mate, especially with silly questions and comments like that.

If you really cant help yourself, post in my thread :wink:

Apologies for straying off topic with this 1 post...

Currently your TE50 is making a big fat 0.00hp, so Jeff's is considerably more powerful.

Added to which I've lost count of the broken and obliterated T5s I've witnessed. I am yet to witness a single broken TKO600, regardless of the abuse. It may be overkill, but I'd rather know that the gearbox is indestructible instead of wincing everytime you sidestep a T5. ;)

Short shifter - Rip Shift (approx $500). Can't compare the difference. The shift is sssooooo much better & shorter. It's too awesome for words.
Short handle - BPT (approx $90). Was about 4-5cms shorter. Consider yourself lucky. I just looked through ~20 pages to find out the pics hae been deleted from someone's photobucket account. :(

s**t -clampy-, I completely forgot about yesterday! I've been so busy with work and had the day off but was badly hung over all day!

I'll try and get down there to see how she goes. I'll take my helmet in case it's as quiet as it was last week.

Hi Mate,

There is a number 8 lead in red that we ordered in for you to replace the longer version that is on the engine at the moment.
Swing by any time to pick it up.

Barry.
