for everyone else, I bought one of the matte ones from Greg yesterday.

They have a nice weight to them, very good quality!

too bad they dont come with the inserts, but for the money you save buy a really cheap knob say for $20 and get the inserts from that. Your still $90 ahaead of buying the real thing! :headspin:

OK i ve been playing around in paint and this is pretty close to what i made. It worked for me i might not work for you. The first hole is either 14.5/15mm cant remember exactly shouldnt matter that much. Ok on the original insert the second hole is 10mm (too loose) so i made it 9mm. Made it 9mm because the gear lever is 10mm diameter it has a thread pitch of 1.25mm and i m pretty sure ISO metric fine thread. As a rule of thumb you make the hole 1mm smaller than the thread hence 9mm. If your worried about it being too lose try 8.5mm or something.  

Remember i used plastic not metal. So you can make the hole slightly smaller. You might have to modify the standard screw to get it to fit in the hole i got another with identical thread and ground it down on the grinder to make it fit. If it all works well should be albe to screw the screw in the top of the insert that goes in the actual gear knob, then screw it by hand on to gear lever. Mine fits fine no play. Let us know how you go.  

PS I was gonna post up a pic i made up in paint but im a noob and cant work these forums. I can email it to ya if ya want.

yep cool.. will try the rubber insert method first then do your method..

tho i still don't have a lathe..

      The interesting part of tests like IM240 is they measure the exhaust output. But they never measure the gases going into the engine... Imagine doing the test in a densely populated city with higher CO2 levels around... Instant disadvantage...

      Using Trickle Chargers

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I have two German Shepherds that like to bite things that are in places they shouldn't be. Plus the cars/batteries on chargers are inside a locked garage, inside that fully fenced and locked yard. If you can get the car out, you can have it, as I'll be having one hell of a laugh at your expense.

      Looks like they changed the wording in the manual for the new model. I have a different model. Mine is CC1206. Not CC1206-XLI. Mine doesn't support lithium at all. I can't find the manual for my model online and they don't list the model on the Century website anymore either. In my manual it says what I quoted and that they recommend to not leave it on 🤷‍♂️ Sounds like you'd be fine with this one now.

      Thanks for actually answering every single point! I noticed the date only after posting. And yes, looks like things have changed a little bit since then. FWIW, looks like Government Gazette No 253 has the current emissions test procedure. Sounds pretty reasonable altogether. One thing I learned from this is that it's possible to check whether a catalyst does any work by measuring the temperature. Catalyst outlet temp is at least 40°C higher than inlet temps if there is a reaction happening. I'd be curious to check this on mine but don't have a thermometer. Because purely going by smell it can't be doing much. Personally I'd be okay to pay for the test as long as it's within reason. My main concern would be to lose my rego because it definitely wouldn't pass the test in its current state. I'll see if I can do a bit more digging and see what's involved in doing this nowadays.   To be fair I don't think it's stopping many people from doing the modifications anyway. It just puts a barrier up to doing things right
