    Hood Bag

  5. bugger, forgot about the speedo, have a stack so i'm sure it's simple enough, rear ARB links, mmh, cheers.....alot of work it seems but on 15's the car just doesn;t feel right IMO so c'est la vie
  6. ok cheers, got a set up booked locally so ride heights will be adjusted anyway.....good point re the balancing weights
  7. Hi, I'm swapping from 15" to 13" shortly, new Compomotive's on order, other than the possible grinding works to get the rears to fit, what else do I need to do oher than fit new lower wing stays and light brackets, anything??
  8. I nearly killed myself at brands back in 2003 using EBC pads, literally took them off and threw in the bin, their products are utter garbage
  9. Help, i need the ref # for the Caterham pearlescent white, its the same as Lotus Ice White, can't get through to TSK and Caterham don't seem to have it.....does anyone know the specific ref so i can paint match an item, £10 donation to NKL in it??
  10. MOG stuff is crap quality though
  11. Have a space available, open to any offers to take off my hands......the day is tomorrow, July 30th so.....?
  12. dave, i'll have it as per the email
  13. A bit more than your usual, this is my spare engine from my G50, the engine has literally only done 5hrs in total before being swapped out for a new 3.7.......4k ono On Pistonheads Maybe too much for a 7 but would be ace in a project car, great engine
  14. Upgrading (down as it might be) to 13" wheels.......these are the standard Caterham Superlight 15" wheels with 195/45/R15 CR500 tyres.......the car is 2 years old so can only assume the wheels are as well but the car has only done 1,200miles and these are in excellent condition, no kerbing, the tyres have only had 15mins in the wet at Brand GP back in May and the rest road miles to and from Le Mans, they have 6mm left on the front and 5mm on the rears New the tyres are £520.80, looking for £260 on their own New the Wheels are £513.60 looking for £350 on their own or £585 together, postage is extra, but collection preferred, can send some pics to those interested
  15. thanks Jon, thanks for the reply and thanks to everyone else for the help!

    ET's again

    all, apologies in advance, i ahve done a search but find exact info, i'm going to be ordering some Compomotive CXR's, i want 6" front and 8.5" rears but they want to know my current ET, i'm swapping from 15" to 13" and don;t know what the standard 15" ET for an R400 is, anyone know? Also, what is the max i can go on the ET on 13" wheels to increase the track front and rear?
  17. Quoting Hanns Per: very interesting so much more power between 2500 and 4000 RPM could you give us more detailed information about your installation, how does it fit under the bonnet. Thank You Hanns Per my Caterham Well I was racing at Pembrey and just struggled with coming out of hairpins, it was a direct replacement, no issues with fitment, if anything it took up less space and we had to buy a large filter, top end was not as buzzy but for me it was all about low down-mid range and the tapered bodies were dramatically better for this we found
  18. I might be interested in the Suunto, used to have one a few years back.....can you send me some pics of the scratches please?
  19. Interesting, I need to upgrade the induction, i do find the standard car a bit slow to respond and I do want more sound, but on the CSR we removed these and fitted Jenvey tapered bodies instead and found a load (60bhp) more power between 2,500 and 4,000 revs, I know RB's give better top end bu I don;t want to sacrifice mid range, does anyone have any direct comparisons of an R400 on RB's vs R400's with Tapered Jenvey's?

  20. sorry andrew, been busy, it;s locked to Vodafone but I see your sorted....cheers
  21. Andrew, Actually I do have one, open to offers, drop me an email if you're interested, it will need unlocking though
  22. taking your engine elsewhere is IMO a VERY WISE MOVE, I won't go into specifics on an open forum, but suffice to say I have experience! Edited by - taffyracer on 7 Jun 2012 21:11:16
