I think to upgrade my cooling system to a R500 like one with one piece radiator/oil cooler and flap system.
I search some pics or a link to a R500 build diary
Could you help me ?
Thanks !
Hi,
Interrested to have a look on C400 engine bay for the following
- Radiator water and oil
- Pedal box air intake
- Nose cone modification
Etc..
Do you have a link to a gallery or could you email me pics at info(at)spidtec(dot)com

I would need some advice about spring rate on a supawide conversion.
I have make a budget front conversion; Modified Freestyle wishbone retaining widetrack shocks and original location (not inboard): Can be seen here and here
Garry have no record for this type of modification. ☹️
I know Arnie did a same type of conversion without using front ARB anymore and used 400 front spring.
Mine will use a front ARB.
Car (Duratec engined 100% track) was running prior to conversion 260 front and 180 rear.
So questions are:
- Is someone else did this budget conversion ?
- Do you change spring rate on rear suspension after a supawide conversion ?
Any advice on spring rate warmly welcome !
Simon,
Thanks for your answer.
Yes car is in UK. Unfortunatly it have been sold as a race kit with KS????VHPD chassis number only.
I will ask sharon and minister directly I hope they could help me.
I'm interrested in buying a R400 however I would like to know if it is it's original engine:
It's a 2002 car with a minister MP233 engine N°
What is you R400 year and engine N° ?
It will allow me to see with it is orignal engine or not. As it is a race car nothing have been found in car files.
Thanks !
I use Ultralite 4 ones with AP "race" MC.
I'm not very satisfy. Car is used only on road and pedal feeling is very (too) hard with this type of MC
Race MC seemed to be the right choice to me as calipers have 4 pots..but it work not as good as Caterham AP 4 pots caliper with "race" AP MC.
Witch master cylinder do you use? std one or "race" one? Any similar experience ?
Thanks 😶🌫️
I have a friend searching one.
Anything considered..from barn find to concours car
What have you?
Car need to be an old caterham or at least be registred on 30+ years donor car if it is a 80's/90's kit.
Thanks 😶🌫️
I need this one as mine failed: here
Caterham can only supply this one
So I need to modify brake line etc...
I would like to know if the old type one is still avaible somewhere and/or if it come from another car (Triumph?)
Thanks 😶🌫️
