They are old Yokomo caps from around 10 years ago for their off-road shocks. I had a set on a old B4.

You might be able to use these? You will also need an O-ring to seal around the base of the thread. Again, I used Associated B4 O-rings.

as far as i have been told that the second shipment of kits will hit Europe at the end of next week at the earliest. i was on the phone with me friend in Hong Kong and he said the same. so unless you want to pay the guys on e-bay US$621.00 + shipping. i think you might have to wait

Been running my own bd7 now for 3 days at the track, after a 6month time without driving at all I am finally finding the rythm and realizing that this car is amazing. It can do so many things the xray would only dream of.

I used the carpet setup - the carbon parts and it has been working fine. Guess ill try the carbon parts next week.

The Xray doesn't dream of breaking as easily as the bd7

Specifically what does the bd7 do better than the xray?

Will be interesting to see if so sure once the t4 starts getting some proper track time......they're already getting close at the ets round.
