BTTT @ £750 This is a bargin for these one of a kind carbon seats

Still available

I paid £550 each for the seats From Caterham. Steve Tillett told me that these are the only two he has ever produced.

I have 2 special order one off Caterham carbon tillett race seats for sale. They are the same shape & design as the kevlar tillets, but slightly lighter and instead of the yellow kevlar weave they have a carbon finish that matches the Caterham wings & dash. They come with Caterham runners (1 driver, 1 passenger) One seat has never been used and is brand new, the other has been used for 6 months and has done 1700 miles in the car. If anyones interested I have pictures that I can send. I'm looking for £750 for the pair Cheers Edited by - oz7 on 29 Mar 2005 16:40:50 Edited by - oz7 on 30 Mar 2005 09:12:06

The new CR500's are currently available and have been for 2 weeks, the compound is also the same as the 11050 tyre its the construction that has changed. The tyre wall has been made substantially stiffer to reduce flex under load. Testing has shown quicker lap times with no disenable increase in wear.

Petrol, I would say that the CR500 was an excellent trackday tyre. The new tyre will be used in all Caterham motorsport (ex Academy) this year. So if its good enought for a R400 racecar I'd say it would be good enough for your average trackday.

MikeW What pads do you use for track work?

Can someone give me the size of the thread on a K series oil filter? And a MG/Rover part number if possible Cheers

I use these filters in work, they are excellent and you dont see any pressure drop, not even when the filter is fully blocked, its all down to the design. I'd say this would be a good investment for you guys with big bucks, steel engines Dave, try the MIDI module, slightly larger than the MINI and 3/4" ports Edited by - Oz7 on 21 Feb 2005 11:25:32

All, I used a Pall PCM and pulled a patch of my oil. I use Silkolene oil and the OEM MG filter, the oil is changed every 750 miles and the results were frightening!! Common oil filters are of such a poor standard in filteration terms, the debris they do not pick up is huge!! We all change our oil far to often but with current synthetic technology there is no need, however its probably wise to do due to the poor filter technology we run in our cars. Take a look at the link below, this very filter is used by the Ferrari F1 team (protect gearbox), Honda's British superbike team and many others PTP also used them while developing various ilkes of K series. http://212.240.121.32/new/application.asp?id=4 Granted much of the K is aluminium, but tests have proven that they DO remove aluminium particulate. The Mini module retails at around £150

As everyone is probably aware the filteration offered by standard oil filter is totally rubbish (125 micron - if your lucky) So I wish to fit an addition good in-line filter (single figure micron). The car is a 1.6K wet sump running an appollo, my question is where would be the best/easiest/most efficient place to put the filter?
