The exhaust appears to be a mismatch of Ethos half system pipes up with a full system Y pipe :/ it ideally needs changing as its a little loose, but will do for now, might get GF link pipes and have shotgun pipes.

Been there, done that :geek: (full race exhaust ethos system gf link pipes and mercury twinstack/shotgun carbon cans)

I'd rather not, feels wrong to break it up. Only pinched the hoses as they're NC35 anyway lol got them cheap and they just about fit the '30.

Need to get my camera sorted, got some headlight covers the other day, went for a light tint on one side and yellow on the other, theyre held on with velcro so no probs come MOT time :) also picked up a cheap set of Dragon Supercorsas, SC1 and SC2 compound so nice and sticky!


Question, can I fit an NC30 undertray? Mines crap and I have a spare '30 one

Yeah the 30 undertray fits I have one on mine as I couldn't find a 35 one, the fusebox doesnt fit properly but thats no biggie.

Cheers mate, got a '30 one thrown in with the purchase lol can't remember if they're on a block connector or part of the loom, either way if they use the same number of wires I can always cut both off and fit some new blocks :)

EDIT: nevermind, looks like I have an NC30 one already, and some helpful person has made me a bracket already :)

Not going to lie they are bloody lovely, makes me want to buy an RVF just to fit a set of them lol. I reckon a full set of Kevlar fairings would look well painted in one of the endurance schemes.

Lol I was looking at Tyga carbon ones, but thought the kevlar would be a little more unique. Still trying to decide what colour scgeme I want to go for, was considering a version of the NC30 type one or something. Did see a mister donut one and thought it looked cool :D
