  1. Yeah! That's what I heard. But the I've fabricated all the parts now. I just need this measurement to solder the parts together now. Anyone?
  2. Please, can someone mesure the position of point 2 relative to point1 on their car (center of the front surface of the upper suspension bolt relative to the center of the light bracket mounting hole) so 3 mesurment (front, side, height). I want to make a bracket to fit my imperial chassis with the "new" light position. That would be very appreciated Thanks Picture taken on the net Did not get any response in Facebook. That does not have to be at 1/16in precise 😉 Thanks
  3. Thanks guys! I will try these Best regards
  4. Hi all! Someone know where I can get this plate for the 620r dash style? Some indicators for the 620r style dash are also back order since a long time. I got the ones that are available at car builder, but ( horn, start, mist, whiper, heater, wind shield heater) I cannot find. Thanks

    620r hoops

    Hi all, please can anyone give me these mesurments for the 620r style dash hoop. I want to use the backing plate from Caterham but the hoops are back ordered since long. I will 3d print some or buy some aftermarket ones if the dimension fit. I just need the distance between the two holes and the holes diameter. best regards
  6. I will be in traveling from sheffield to london in uk next week and looking for these please. I could probably arrange pickup depending on location. best regards
  7. thanks all for all your replies! It helps a lot! Esslinger is sure very interesting I am not completly decided yet but it sure help! I wish I could be able to test drive one of each engine but it is not possible here. Do not hesitate if you have any other ideas! Best regards

  9. You are right on this. I should add a new ECU on my list for that matter. You think the 2.3 will be more playful? My thought were on the 2.0l for playfulness (with the fact that the engine will have cast piston and con rod thus higher rev limit. Thanks for your comments. :-)
  10. hi john, thanks for sharing your experience. Your build tread is very detailed and informative! Best regards
  11. Hi james, thanks for your answer. I did not know about SBD, very interesting. I would be able to find a tuner for duratec but no caterham specific tuner for sure. thanks
  12. Hi all, I got a s3 caterham with a zetec 2.0 engine (lsd, dedion, 5spd type 9, jenvey 45mm and omex 500 ecu) the easy bolt-on mods are pretty much done. The option of buying a newer caterham and sell this one is pretty much impossible since I live in Canada and they are rare as unicorns here... My first reflex is to move to a Duratec engine as I will also move to a newer generation engine. I've done my research and I think I would prefer a 2.0l rather than a 2.3l and put forged con rods and pistons inside the 2.0l. My goal is somewhere near 250hp. (a pretty high sticker price for 60 more hp, I agree). The exhaust and intake will switch side, I am ready for this. Here are my questions: -I have an opportunity to buy a very very low mileage 2.0 duratec and was wondering if you think I could find a map for my Omex 500, if the omex 500 is good enough vs new generation to be able to tune this setup wihout dyno time as I do not have knowlgeable ressources that I know of here. -I also tought of supercharging the zetec but I find it expensive and complicated for a 20 years old engine. (maybe I am wrong) I've done a few research and I think the project will cost me 7000-8000 pounds. I do not think that buying a complete setup in England is a solution since shipping will be ridiculous. Not an easy question and I know that is has been discussed before, any opinions are welcome. winter is comming and I will have plenty of time to work on the engine :-) Thanks
  13. thanks timb2117, that is very helpfull. ! best regards
