    Im just wondering if anyone can give me an idea as to whether it is worthwhile puttng a set of 46mm Mikuni's on my superjet?

    Do they make a significant difference?
    Bearing in mind this engine will not be standard for long, its going to get a rocket up its arse!!

    Im in the process of getting some parts from Wamiltons at the moment.

    The NZ dollar is the strongest against the US Dollar that is has been in years so its a good time for importing. The shipping cost are not the best but its still cheaper than trying to get the same parts from Watercraft world. Im not sure what the Dalusion Team are offering or their prices but id say they will be better than PWC Dealers.
    unfortunatly the PWC dealers are still selling things at the price they imported them for a year ago when the kiwi dollar was substantially lower.
    If anyone knows different to what iv said here, im keen as to hear from you. Id love to buy locally if it was cheaper!

    You are right about the dollar, perfect time to import. Everyone on here that wants something should get together and do a bulk order to make freight cheaper. :idea:
