well i bought blue hoses not thinking and thought it might look abit gay with the yellow and i wanted a change, not sure now tho , looked better on the engine stand in the garage tbh .. i can see it going yellow again at some point if i can be bothered.

like the way it tries to pull you round corners instead of spinning a wheel up?

oh hey, the difference i noticed from that split shaft aswell is quite good. especially if you have one kicking about. take about 10 mins to change.
