    It looks like the one right near the bottom the TO 2006 version :) also would a NRG front wheel fit?

    yes a nrg wheel fits,

    but as runner wheels look fine and more importantly match one and other i wouldn't advise doing it (plus every one has done it to death so it's probably more original to have the originals :good: )

    do you mean he has gone from a stock airbox to a after market filter
    or vise versa?

    yeah :) it did 65 with the after market one on and now its only doing 35 im sticking with a blocked jet or rollers tbh, but if you have any ideas, also this could be a good haggle point ;)

    clocks on all motor vehicle miss over read your speed, especially the type of speedo used on peds and rs's

    not to say that the above isn't true, just a fact worth pointing out
