  1. I will also drop this by for PPF Never used them yet but they are on my wish list. Pre-cut PPF pieces for Caterhams to the best of my understanding. Seemed to be well recommended by the community https://premierpaintguard.com/caterham_paint_protection_film.html
  2. I'm under the understanding that CF guards are the best option for fiberglass rears. However if you have CF rears then PPF is your best option over then
  3. Search for a tuner is back on. I have a few leads but the current tuner contact said they didn't feel comfortable working with Pectel and I'm not ready to commit to $7k to get a dyno tune and get my timing right
  4. Not sure where you're getting those prices? https://caterhamparts.co.uk/nose-cones/5341-nosecone-badge-black-silver-self-adhesive.html?search_query=badge&results=13 27.16 VAT excl. =37.22 UNITED STATES DOLLAR + shipping About $50 USD is what I've been paying, but I typically combine shipping to have about one big order from the UK a year.
  5. I think you're being awefully optimistic about my single car garage..

  7. So visually the only difference is front and rear fenders? That's amazing that two bolt on parts is all it takes to convert Caterham into a Kei car (other than the engine size limit)
  8. Felt a little out of place today at the last Cars and Coffee of the season
  9. It's Dyno tuno cost counting their ECU and familiarity. If they were to try to use my old limited ability Pectel I can only assume it will be much higher considering it doesn't track AFR in the ECU afaik and it will take much longer. Still I can only assume that's cheaper than the total. Not sure why the MAP, maybe to proof the future upgrades such as FI. But yes I currently have the TPS on the ITBs. I know the wideband sensors are the same so I can at least subtract that. 12 to 15 hours to repin the ECU seems excessive? I would expect that price for replacing the entire harness.
  10. Whatever happened to going somewhere and getting a $600-1000 basic tune? Does that not exist anymore Got the quote from the tuner Rough math on the lower end comes out to be $7000+ That figure is NOT in my current ballpark for a tune

  12. Don't know if you have facebook or whether this link will work but just came across this and took a screen shot These are usually in demand and go quick. This was just posted
  13. For anybody wondering about the pedal difference between early and late pedals, I happen to have both. New is the round one. Old is flat. New sits higher and not sure if it will fit just yet but it certainly seems to provide more travel which is what I'm after. If it doesn't work, I have replacement pedal to bend over further

  21. Reinforced some of the existing mounts with JB wild as an attempt to make them better. Couldn't have them welded while mounted due to likely damage to CF and wasn't going to remount all of them. Will get replacement units reinforced in meantime. Also discovered that there is always something new to find. My left and right fairing stays are different. Not sure why or how but they have different width spread and aren't interchangeable. Luckily I have new race mounts to make it all work. Race mounts march one side but not the other
  22. The Lotus 7 story Timestamped shout out below... @JohnCh @Croc
  23. If I recall during the history of the original Lotus 7, there was an engine upgrade that made it a Super 7. It was either larger or even had "super" in the name (super sprint? or something?) and as far as I know the name has stuck around as it was only made with that engine going forward. Can't find the source on that right now, but I'm sure somebody will correct me otherwise.
  24. Another track year, another set of failing BigHeads fasteners. This time around im going to see if some reinforcement welding can be added in weak failing points at the bends. The glue held fine so far for year 2 and 3, the actual metal fatigues and fails. Glue is so strong it's actually a bear to remove. I refuse to hard mount the fenders. I only imagine that the situation would only cause more trouble in the future and I like the ability to swap over fender mounts as needed due to different tire and wheel sizes (I have high and low fender mounts now)
