dr_mat 0 Posted January 16, 2004 Rubber might have perished slightly, but not by as much as if they'd been on the car under pressure and exposed to water/oil/frost/etc etc... But you're right it's a long time for it to be sitting there... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted January 16, 2004 £1850 isn't so bad considering it's hand made and the Vortech blower for the VR costs £2K. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggrim 0 Posted January 18, 2004 £1850 + the vat and to get it fitted if you don't know what you are doing. Not to mention getting it sent to Darren for a bit of modification. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
