Richbrook ‘Pro Valve’ Bolt-in Wheel Valves. High Quality. Low Weight

Funny isn’t it? Most enthusiasts will think nothing of dropping four-figure sums on a nice set of alloy wheels and tyres for their car – and then finish them off with a cheap rubber valve. Luckily, the latest aluminium masterpieces from Richbrook provide the perfectly formed answer to any automotive aesthetes looking to add the perfect finishing touch.

Their immensely attractive Pro Valve collection is offered in either nickel plated brass or anodised aluminium in a wide range of hues to match or contrast with any car’s colour combination. As the title suggests, these new units are simply bolted into the wheel to not only provide a more secure fitment and seal, but also a subtle visual kick to any style of wheel. They’re also a worthwhile addition to any track car or club motorsport racer looking to remove the worry of rubber valve failure during those more ‘press-on’ moments.

Sometimes, it’s the smallest details that can make the biggest difference. Priced from just £12.95 for a set of 4, this is one subtle change that can make or break a wheel and tyre package, without wilting your wallet.

Pipercross Competition Filter Range

Induction maestros Pipercross have released details of their latest range of competition-spec filters.

The hugely diverse range has been designed to offer a variety of solutions for race teams, car preparation outfits and specialist car builders. Over 40 different combinations of neck and filter diameter are available ranging from 50 – 146mm necks with a choice of 5 filter sizes from 100 to 300mm.

Not only are the range of sizes vast, to accommodate almost every possible application, space or airflow, but also cover varying construction types including foam top, alloy caged and straight walled. All use a precision moulded rubber neck to allow for quick and easy fitment to any circular mating surface. Best of all, they’re all made entirely here in the UK.

As well as increased flow characteristics, all Pipercross filters can actually filter down to a much finer rate than factory filters, preventing any foreign particles from harming the engine, extending its serviceable life. This same construction means that the filter can also go longer between service intervals than even leading cotton-gauze filters, before needing to be cleaned.

Despite these impressive abilities, all Pipercross filters come with a lifetime warranty and can be easily cleaned again and again for re-use, providing decades of faithful service and paying for themselves many times over – and that’s before you start factoring in the significant performance benefits.

Perfect as an upgrade for an existing induction kit, or for those looking for a bespoke solution. Basically, if you need a specialist filter – this range should cover it. Prices start at just £27.99 and rise to £56.99.
