no parts are needed, except for the usual spare belts spurs and optional pinions/spurs.

in this thread i posted my opinions on what needs to be done to avoid stripping gears and 2 speed issues so if you search this thread for posts under my name it should all come up.

it's a good kit, honestly, the only ugly design feature is the ommision of a rear brace....it's a significant design flaw considering the braking system is a forward pulling mechanism instead of a side pushing mechanism like conventional brake systems.
Thanks i will try to get the new kit! i have contact with Robbie Collings From Mugen so i will let him know abt the new parts.
