  1. was the first super 7 i ever drove! http://www.midatlanticcaterham.com/images/2005Orange%20DD1.jpg
  2. nice story, i think i feel a tear comin on
  3. we will see how much $ is left. the turbo header, turbo, downpipe will be done for sure. this season im looking for function. will make it pretty over the winter.
  4. update! got some of the plumbing in. the bends arnt quite as sharp as we would like in some locations but i think it works out good. http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/2283/cimg2737resize.jpg http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/8995/cimg2738resize.jpg
  5. please tell me where you bought these trailer fenders.
  6. i have the same issue except i have NO pedal cover. i am free to drive the car down to 40-45 degree weather. cant wait for those 95 degree days with my new turbo system...
  7. not quite true in my case as i have exhaust running down the center channel and have no cover over the pedal box.

  9. perhaps there are more blacks then we know. they are just in hiding.
  10. nice car. i have a few questions. what year is the donor? hows the rear suspension setup? where did u get those front fenders? Roman
  11. i very much like that trailer. who made it?
  12. "It is located in Knoxville TN." the drive to pickup would really not be worth it.
  13. id love to get an aluminum one like al got way back. i called the dealer and he has one that he offered for $2800($3400 normally) and a bit more for the full metal deck version. problem is after the turbo, suspension, new wheels, and other items a costly trailer will really push my budget.
  14. its the same exact car here and in germany.
  15. i will wager sv roadsport. ultralite have carbon fiber fenders and the csr has a more powerful motor.
  16. not i dont. ive seen very few of those trailers so im asking around
  17. this is a not a simple question to answer. many 7's you have spotted here are of different makes. please give us a little bit more information regarding the car you have and perhaps we could better help you.
  18. my location is usually within 15-45 min of the autox course so i dnt worry much about flat spots. i liked that trailer because if need be i can creep the sides of the tire over the edge. pardon the stupid questions... new to trailers. regarding weight i have towed over 3500lb loads regularly with my old golf which was less powerful. ive never felt a need for better brakes... regarding aluminum, its hard to spot one used thats the size i need.

  20. i recall a discussion regarding trailers back a year or so ago. this topic is a little different. i currently have access to a 16ft trailer that Ive used in conjunction with a borrowed truck. the experience showed me that a trailer that size is a bit overkill. after being prodded by my fellow 7ers at carlisle i am considering a trailer for my 7 that i can tow with my jetta wagon. my concern is regarding the width because my 7 is already about 6ft wide and with the 5x10 wheels with slicks it pokes a bit more. i found this out when i used the 16ft trailer and the rear wheels where right up against the rails. im considering a small trailer as pickered in this listing. http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/mcy/1167937869.html i would get some brackets welded along the back or sides so that long ramps that would slide under or along the sides of the trailer. my issue is with the use of these tiny wheels. are thye safe? what are the speed limitations? could some sort of suspention be added to this? inquiring mind needs to know
  21. i figure that any peal color, even black pear would help with chipping.
  22. not flat brown, but with metallic and/or pearl like the photos above
  23. Before i got my 7 i said to myself that i will never buy another black car. now after owning it for 2 years im thinking of repainting the black into a brown peal color. thoughts? http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/4756/dsc04489.jpg http://gtcarlot.com/gallery/photo.php?id=177016 http://www.fourtitude.com/gallery/generated//Events/AMI%20Leipzig/2009/011__scaled_600.jpg
