With many thanks to a forum member, i am now in temporary possession of a full M400 gear linkage kit. (And his car is very safe on his driveway smile)

This kit is now unavailable from the factory, and they have no intention of manufacturing any more. I intend having it reproduced ready for my upgrade to M400 engine.

I will be having only 5 kits manufactured - so it's first come - first served.

If anyone is interested in a kit, please either PM me, or register your interest here.
Price TBA, but use the factory price as a guide.

Fitting is tricky, but TBH, not that difficult with two people. Maybe a full working day. (We removed it in about 5 hours - working leisurely with plenty of fag breaks!)

Obviously, until i can confirm price, there is no obligation. Kits expected to be available within 4 weeks.

Whilst I'm still interested in a better gear change, can anyone tell me how the 400 unit differs from the 3R, also, what adj. is there on the 3R unit, and how do you access it.
If I can improve on what I've got whilst waiting for the new kit then that would be nice.

Steve.
