They do, but we'll see how it all looks on the car, it might tie in with the wheel nuts and calipers, being silver, but might be too much, with the blue stripe.

Need to find two valves first though, short ones seem hard to get.

[Tahir]

Motorbike valves is what you need, they do shorties for about £2 each my ends.

I need some for my TE37's so if you want I can get you some?

[Marc_EE9]

Do they bolt down ontop, or from underneath, as the only ones I see are ontop ones.

These are the Mugens ones:

[Tahir]

They are normal rubber valves, but shorties.

I like them because they dont seize, scratch your rim or break.

And they are widely available and cheap.

[Marc_EE9]

what size hole are they for, and are they really wide? as they need to be no wider than the ones above.

[Tahir]

[Marc_EE9]

can't really make it out mate sorry

[Tahir]

They are just normal valves mate, but shorties for motorbikes.

They don't need to be a specific thickness.

[Marc_EE9]

normal valves are 11.5mm aren't they?

I need 8mm ones, and the bases can't be too wide otherwise they don't fit in the recess on the wheel, as some are quite fat around the base.

[Tahir]

Well i'l try one of these shorties on one of my RNR and see if they fit.

Pretty much done all the tucking and cleaning I can now. Replaced the OE pipe for the servo breather for a piece of silicone hose and tucked that out of the way. Also cleaned up the washer jet hose, and tucked part of it into the bonnet.

Gave it a wash again today, and went to take a few updated pics..

Looks awesome Marc, just need them RNR'S on it

[Kains]

The last pic I really like

[callum0892]

Love the last 2 pics. Still think the NS2's look good. Think i need a vt bumper though

[Marc_EE9]

Cheers guys.

RNR's are going on as soon as I can sort out some valves for them.
