Ronald says that the missing silver piece is a removal tool for the factory shift lever. He's going to try shipping out all the bushings and removal tools next Monday.

^I was having correspendence with Ronald by email earlier and thought I should ask about the bushings.

He responded back first with:

Quote:
There should be 2 new bushings in the box.

and then 90 minutes later:

Quote:
looks like I forgot to include the bushings and the removal tool. so I will be shipping them to the GB members and include them in the overun buyers package as well.
will be closed on Xmas eve but will be back on Monday
Thanks guys for asking about all the parts and especially Intgr8r for spotting the missing bushings. It looks like we'll all be looked after.

Received mine on Thursday - here's another one confirming the need of bushings and the silver removal tool. Otherwise, looks pretty damned good - can't wait to get my current non-car projects done so I can get to work on the car!

I posted before I saw your post. After I saw that, I thought it made sense to leave it since I had more detail than "what you said", and that some might be interested in reading. I also thought it appropriate to keep my thank you in there.

Glad that humoured you. We're looking forward to getting this mod and seeing how it works out.

hahah icic. Yeah, it sucks that everyone's off during holiday season. I want to just take a break from family time and throw my parts on.
The SSK I really want installed, and I just bought 3.91 gearing so I'm pretty excited about those as well
I also want to do my dyno runs after the header install. January is going to be one hell of a month for the car. So exciting!

^nice. Looking forward to hearing about the dyno, headers and the gears. The gears are something I'd like to do too.

My SSK won't be done until early - mid April after the car comes out of storage.

I'm still waiting too.
I suspect USPS cross border shipping at Christmas is the culprit.

No kit or notification yet. He mentioned to me that he did 18 kits in total.

According to his email 2 kits were to be shipped before Christmas. The remaining 6 were being shipped before the New Year. Then there are the overstock people like myself who will have them shipped as they order. In my case they are supposed to have been shipped before New Years as well.
