  1. Gauging interest on here before I advertise elsewhere. For sale my ZF Limited Slip Diff - 3.92 ratio. Bought from a race team originally and used only for sprints/ hillclimbs in 2016/17/ 18 before I had it checked and rebuilt by Steve Perks at Tracsport who spotted incorrect ramp angles for caterham and helped me source the correct 30 degree ramps - almost impossible to find now and set the preload. The diff exhibited virtually no wear. Since then the car has done a few hundred miles on the road, and some part seasons of sprints. Performs faultlessly, isn't noisy. £1250
  2. No problem. I’m sure we can work something. I’ll check entry lists for the weekend to see if anyone is local ish to you. Worst case I’ll be heading by on the way to see family at some point. will DM you some pics tomorrow
  3. Of course. where are you? Might be able to arrange for them to get closer as it’s the first sprint this weekend
  4. For sale, pair of the milled Alloy endplates/ de-dion ears My race spares - used but good condition. suitable for standard brakes £100 the pair.
  5. For sale, watts linkage from imperial Caterham. Used but ok condition. £150 caterham parts price £685
  6. For sake, pair of SV driveshafts. No splits or tears in the boots. Speedo sensor ring in place. For ford differential for collection from Anglesey or arrange courier/ distribution with people if they compete. £250 the pair or near offer. caterham new price £420 inc vat each. Also have a de-dion tube, straight but used. £150 Caterham parts £556 new. Taking up space and I’m unlikely to use them.
  7. Guy, definitely interested buddy. How much do you want for them? I may be able to get someone to collect on his way up for a track day at Anglesey this week.
  8. Ideally after a cheap set of mini lites or similar with tyres if anyone has any
  9. I’ve been speaking to the seller with interest in another car he had but sadly my insurance settlement failed to materialise in time. however he has taken in part-ex another lovely looking 7. Chritian has been incredibly courteous, polite and answered a million questions I’ve asked without hesitation. Lovely blue VVC s3 Seven, low miles asking £17k which seems very reasonable https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/3629357293974537/
  10. LSD - as above - with 120bhp presently I would save that upgrade for another day. wide track - makes negligible difference.. Upgrades - some decent cams and a supersport ECU (do a wanted - there must still be some standard Supersport ECU's about on shelves where people have upgraded to Thrtottle bodies/ Emerald ECU) a lightened flywheel, as well as 52mm throttle body and some verniers to allow you to get the cam timing spot on should get you to 135-140bhp very quickly and relatively cheaply!
  11. Protech - been running them on my car for quite a few years... Overall, they are a step up from the standard Bilsteins however - they do occasionally leak and have to be refurbished - nothing significant there, and the damping control / rebound whilst better than the Bilstein is nowhere near as good as supposed 'bling' dampers. Anyone who feels that decent dampers are bling in my opinion either drives on perfectly smooth tarmac, doesn't track the car or drives slowly enough that the dynamics of the Bilsteins are not exceeded. If I'd started again, I would have persevered with the Bilsteins for Longer and saved up extra for better dampers. Having driven a number of different Caterhams on Hillclimbs and Sprints when mine has been unavailable - I can verify that better dampers allow you to ride kerbs without upsetting the car, give you flexibility to dial out characteristics at the circuit due to changes in weather/ conditions - it still needs a decent base set up however, and generally gives feedback and feeling through the steering whee/ seatl on what the tyres are doing allowing you to push the boundaries further.. Nitrons were great, however the CORE digreesives fitted to Lewis Carines car as well as Ben Williams were fantastic - where in my car I'd have been really fighting to find grip/ keep it on the track, their cars were far more stable despite very similar set ups - rake, camber, caster, toe and tyre pressures.
  12. Still looking? I have one that I'm prepared to sell.
  13. if you dont - you won't make it onto the island
  14. Andy confimed there were..... and he's the guv'nor! If I need to kick your car out i will Malc! It's half an hour ish home anyhow - there aren't many 20mph zones on the way back when you know the route! not all roads go through villlages/ towns ;-)
  15. I think I replied to Andy 20/9... perhaps I didn't want you lot to know I was competing! If there's no room I can take the car home anyhow... sod you foreigners!
