  1. I know about another one: https://www.lotus7.club/forum/market-place/csr-260-rather-nice-and-only-8700-miles-£37250 I love the interior!
  2. Hi Croc, funny you should mension the oil temps - I tracked CSR regularly for four years and my oil temps have never been a problem. I had 2.0 Duratec engine from R500 Duratec Superlight mated to CSR 260 cooling and lubrication system with Caterham 6 speed box and Stack dash. the car had a massive CSR radiator tilted forward with the plastic lip funneling the air to the top nose cone cut out, no oil cooler and modine oil/coolant heat exchanger in oil filter housing. Despite full throttle at Silverstone or Brands the oil temp has very rarely gone over 100'C. Immediately down to about 94-95'C on the cool down lap. High oil temp has never been an issue. I've used 10W-60 oil viscosity. Changed to 620R SV now, my CSR is up for sale here: https://www.sevensandclassics.com/showroom/caterham-csr-superlight-500/
  3. The dry sump oil tank in the bell housing on CSR in known to cause the clutch to overheat on the track. Race CSR cars had the swirl tower and the oil tank blanked off and a separate oil tank present 620 style - instead of the passenger footwell.
  4. I should be all right then. Not sure about this though - seen plenty of cars on slicks on trackdays over the years.
  5. Titan LSD for Sierra 7" casing sold via Caterham Motorsport Marketplace.
  6. Titan LSD advertised on Caterham Marketplace as well.
  7. Take the seat out, vacuum the debris, give it a wipe, re-install the seat. While the seat is out, give it a wipe as well.
  8. Not visible with the full hood on. Unlike this one.
  9. James, not at all. I've amended the advert, please have a look and let me know if it reads better.

    620R cooling

    I'm working on some more temperature measurement options and perhaps more extraction of the hot air from the nosecone when stationary.
  11. No final drive. It is 3.62 and I'm keeping it. it is just an LSD body itself. in the perfect order and working well.

    620R cooling

    Have they changed the iteration sticker at the back of the gauge to C?
  13. I might have that from my old car as well.
  14. Yes father. Still wouldn't want them on my car.

    Mugello

    Awesome track. Did it in Ferrari. Not as exciting as 620.
  16. Those discs are ready for replacement. Probably flirting with minimal thickness with the discolorations over the "air" chambers where the thickness reduced.
  17. Bump. not had time to get more stuff on, but there is more to come.
  18. Hi Andy, maybe interested due to favourable spring rates. A couple of questions: - the make of the spring? - front springs look a bit short - standard Caterham is 7" - that equals to 177.8mm. 155mm gives you roughly 6.1" - the rears: the length of the rear main spring?, not sure I understand 250/625 lbs/in. 175mm is (give or take) 7 inch, 100mm equals roughly to 3.9 inch. The standard Caterham rear spring is 9 inch long.
  19. Just give it full throttle and steer into the oversteer. It's a tool of joy.
