  1. Before I order one from Caterham anyone have one they don't want?
  2. My original caterham belts are put of date. I need to replace the belts and looking for best options. i dislike the current OE belts as the buckles catch in the tilletts and appear to be badly designed? Lota of options and whilst buy cheap buy twice is always a concern they must be FIA compliant and tillett compatible Any views and experience?
  3. The fire pump and the FWA and FWE were different but genetically connected engines.

  6. Greetings You will have an extra groove on your damper to move the very small circlip that you can hardly believe holds the platform up You do not need to machine new ones I know as I have the exact (virtually) same 7 Once moved all will become clear If you are near Nottinghamshire happy to assist meet or talk you through it

  9. With Tazio here With any spirited driving especially race/track driving I would be more concerned with oil starvation with a wet sumped car There are no issues checking dry sumped cars at all.
  10. Hi wet/dry sump - oil changes are not affected by that but by usage - the more you use your 7 and the more ‘stressful use’ defines your oil changes - usual rules. there is a benefit Re general ground clearance which some believe can assist them 360 come with dry sumped if specc’d so you will find them around if it is mostly road then 360 is enough but as you use it more you will always want more and get upgrades bothering you if you feel that way so 420 to 500 to 620 will be your next question anyway If you can drive the nuts off it already get a 420 if you are new to 7s then 360 is enough for public roads if mostly doing those as you will find yourself enjoying that enough
  11. Apologies for photos - sent from phone and page not easy to use that way - anyway let me know if you need any others
  12. Brian James Minno Max trailer twin axle with high level tyre rack. Based on A4 style trailer with ramps that slide into and under chassis for storage. Very good condition hardly any miles tyre tread hardly touched with brand new spare. All brakes in very good condition. Fits in single garage as was stored there until recently. Loading bed width 171cm and loading length 338cm. Pictures to follow £1900 may split rack away depending on deal. Pictures to follow ASAP
  13. Find your local trade motor factor which supplies paint to the trade. Most will mix up a £10 (approx) aerosol. Take your car and ask them to scan the colour and make up a can. Spray some on a fine brush and dab your stone chips. Some even do small trial pots so worth asking.
  14. Not quite sure if I have your point but if you have adjustable dampers then the dampers are likely to have snap rings that you can reposition to allow a different range of adjustment, at least mine did
  15. Hi Rich any chance of some pictures?
  16. Re pedal box cover - it's important to leave it in place as it is part of the firewall from the engine compartment remove it and you will feel quite some warm air flow to your feet/knees In the unhappy event of an engine malfunction you would find your feet covered in hot oil/water/burning fuel very quickly whilst that hopefully isn't going to happen the risk isn't worth it hope that helps and I did mine summer of 2015 - if you fancy track days at blyton Cadwell or Donington would be happy to meet up
  17. You'll be fine we have been there lots of times in same spec car. i can cause a peak there by coming out of last corner in second (5 spd as the noise is recorded on the outside of the track just after you join it - so when completing a lap and taking the last left onto the straight keep your revs slightly lower and you'll be fine done it with both cat and decat pipe good luck you will enjoy it
  18. Hi Chris whereabouts are you ? I'm in Nottinghamshire
