I think that's what they would be called!

I am struggling to find them due to the language barrier, can anybody name some performance parts stockists abroad?

Cheers!

I think the problem you're going to find is that despite us all being in Europe together and the standards 'should' be the same across the board, in fact the UK has the best after market products available, with the lowest practical regulation.

For instance in Germany EVERY part has to be TUV approved

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technischer_%C3%9Cber... and as that piece says at the end "getting a road permit for custom-built vehicles is said to border on the impossible" so that may well go for parts as well.

You could try contacting some of the 'ring racer' type companies and see who or what they use. Dale Lomas on this site might be a good start perhaps: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/profile.asp?mem...

Sorry, not much help just another angle for you to consider and why you can't find anything.
