nope the bigbore's are in the kit now .
so only speedo and servo and a spring kit .
that's the only things you need to get started.

Default Then the picture lies?

Hi,
I just found this thread because I had the same question.
Is it the XX006: BIG BORE SHOCKS V2 COMPETITION that are actually in the kit?
I notice the V2 in the name. Is there a V1 and is that actually what's in the kit?

The picture of the kit on the webshop looks like it has the old shocks:
http://www.teamxtreme.co.uk/store/in...up_image&pID=3

Also, the somewhat confusing description on the webshop mentions the front one way as optional, but this is not listed in the upgrades category on the webshop. Is this included? It is listed in the options-section though.

Looks like a great kit, but confusing and slow webshop. I wish all the manufacturers would have a complete parts listing for each kit.

The shocks that come in the kit are the newest version.

If you want more details on the parts and even download the manual just go to www.the-pred.co.uk in the download section there are lots things to look at.

Thumbs up pred with 1-way

If you get a pred, stay away from 1-way as you might find you'll start to go backwards with it.
i went from fixed to 1-way and started to get out breaked all the time.
atlest with fixed you get a chance to match out-breaking rivals on the track. for me, fixed is my choice.

Unfortunately the service doesn't match the high prices Xtreme are very slow at sending things out, quite often there is a wait of over a week for spares to get dispatched.

With you being aborad and the postage process adding to the delivery time I would expect you will be waiting a while for your car to arrive. I find PMing Mrs TeamXtreme on here is easier than trying to call shop.

The weather in the UK was indeed terrible in places before Christmas !
It has forecast more bad snow in places too over the next couple of days.

I'd wait till the 4th Jan, then get in touch. Most places in the UK will be back up and running on the 4th as it's the 'back to work' day for many of us, I would guess this will also be the case for teamxtreme.
