TA XR Lane. I did have this link, however I think that $69.95 US + $12.95 US for delivery, is far more than I am prepared to pay for one coloured badge. LOL.


Yeah its by no means cheap, but they do look to be good quality. I guess its a case of how badly you want a black badge :lol:

Bugger - That looks suspiciously similar to the brand new cable that's installed in mine too. Wow. You want to see if they're replaceable by warranty? Are we still in warranty period by the way?!

Well, it is less than 12 months old. I didn't get mine until May 09, so it may be worth at least asking.

Cheers

Are these the one's from Fiends groupbuy ???
Mine's a Flexdrive - haven't had any issues to date.
I'll make a lockwire safety lead for your damper - PITA when the cable breaks, that Damper usually goes MIA.

Yes, it is one from the Group Buy.

Good idea re the safety line. I like it.

I will buy a new cable from Bursons in a week or so. The one in there now is soooo heavy and feels dead. Not fun to drive.


Cheers
BenJ

BenJ, i feel ya pain with the clutch cable, my cable snapped in the same position about 3mths ago, but i didn't loose the damper, luckily. I was only a couple of blocks from home, so i got my mate to tow me the couple blocks to home.

I had to adjust the cable up fairly tight due to the clutch fork, being bent a little & i think the pressure plate in my EB is starting to pack it in as well. I have a full kit here to fix all that, but haven't had the chance to fit it, but i must soon. Adjusting the clutch cable up too tight makes them stretch & snap pretty quick. If the cable has to be adjusted up very tight, to near the end of it's adjustment, something else isn't right......

Cheers

ToranaGuy

trying to drive a car without a clutch pedal at all...

Wow I wont be going to try that anything soon... Getting them out of gear is easy but into the next gear... Not sure I'd be quite talented enough for that without grinding something...

Its like Old V8 supercar style there Ben (pre the lazy sequential box they run now)...

Hope I catch mine before that ever happens to me...

Car looks good... Oh and I sent you a PM as I'm sure your already aware of... No doubt you'll be sick of me and my questions soon... Only one way to learn though....

Cheers,
Tim
