Tim (Timax) - I like how you laid out your dash. How did you do the switch labeling on your dash? Is it one of those Canon P-Touch things or something else?

They are called map pockets. I originally saw them on the Caterham UK online parts site and then found them on Ebay cheaper here. They are also on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Map-Pocket-Lightweight-Retainer-High-end/dp/B008QDIE24

Restricting myself to answering the question asked, I am aware of 2 new Caterham sales since Jan 1. I am sure there are others out there that I don't hear about by word of mouth.

Not surprising how slow the Bug was to pull out of low speed corners. As you expect the Subie just powered out with AWD and a bunch of torque. But what was stunning was the Bug was so much quicker at high speed elements of the stage. I have never associated a Beetle with high speed competitiveness (let alone handling). I guess the Dak Dak was not stock?

Here is my previous Caterham, now Jude's baby: http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a354/mjohnson555/seats/P1010651.jpg Speedo/tach in front of driver. Then water, oil pressure and fuel gauge. I modified it later and do not seem to have taken any photos but the auxiliary gauges were then laid out as: water temp, Mechanicial Oil press/temp dual gauges, fuel, volts Here is my current Caterham when it was pristine new: http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a354/mjohnson555/seats/CSR/Colorado%20April%202011/DSC_5413_edited-1.jpg speedo/tach behind wheel. Then water temp, oil pressure, oil temp and fuel in the auxiliary gauges. Center console has switches for hazard, start button and window defogger I love having adjustable vents with heat and air con blower controls and column stalk indicators that cancel and headlights high beam on the column stalk at my fingertips and a proper horn button on the steering wheel, and....:troll:

Noooooo! You have it all wrong! :svengo: You should definitely pull chicks with that car! :cooldude:

I am not sure about jade, wood was the first thing that springs to mind.... http://3t3xh1419rst3ai5tv42e1xg11jz.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/picture-32.jpg Try this in Dunkin Donuts or Starbucks today! http://3t3xh1419rst3ai5tv42e1xg11jz.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/enhanced-15680-1393888914-1.jpg

What on earth?!?! This was acceptable back then? and she took it with a smile?

Mike - you love us and I seem to recall you give as good as you get!

Try this today and I can recommend a nice plastic surgeon to remove the feather duster implant she gave you http://3t3xh1419rst3ai5tv42e1xg11jz.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/creditalligator-sunglasses-com.jpeg For the next one, the answer is usually no, after 8 beers...I think they are looking for something else! http://3t3xh1419rst3ai5tv42e1xg11jz.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/ad15.jpg

Those who know me well, know I love looking back with fondness for a gentler time, a more romantic time, a time for women to be treated with the respect they deserve. I thought a trip down memory lane with some old product ads showing how women were treated in the past.... http://3t3xh1419rst3ai5tv42e1xg11jz.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/enhanced-3451-1393886514-10.jpg Yes but what will she be drinking? http://3t3xh1419rst3ai5tv42e1xg11jz.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/ad26.jpg I recall the pain suffered by my father when he did this one Christmas morning.... http://3t3xh1419rst3ai5tv42e1xg11jz.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/ad32.jpg http://3t3xh1419rst3ai5tv42e1xg11jz.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/ad36.jpg Did she try listerine?

yes...grass stains! :jester:

Why did you need new cycle wings Mike? Did you rip the last set off during an off road excursion?

Hi Stewart You will need in date belts - the inspectors check those and helmet dates. I think it is a wise precaution anyway - you are out on a track with Kitcat! One last thing - you will also need arm restraints - and not the purple fluffy kind that some people on this forum have in their bedrooms. I find the Caterham ones are easiest/quickest to use because of the simplicity and use of velcro instead of buckles but Simpson, Deist, OG, etc all offer their variations. Cheers mike BTW - are you bringing Gus back? Not only was he handy with videoing your spins he was good fun!

I will vouch for this. When Skip showed off his horn to me a few years back I was nearly embedded in the rear wall of his garage from the air pressure alone! They are LOUD! :rofl: :seeya:

Its not a DFV - had a broken one on the garage floor in Oz once (i didn't do it...honest!) A bit of hunting and it is.... ta dah.....Twin turbo lexus V8 300Kw 832Nm 0-200kph in 7.9 Sec His youtube channel is here: http://www.youtube.com/user/JuanKolesky The car has a South African license plate on it. I bet that puts hair on your chest!

I cannot quite see - but what is the V8 in the S1 on the dyno? Definitely widened the rear wheel arches to accommodate bigger rubber. :conehead:

Found on Craigslist - started with a CMC locost chassis with lots of Stalker bits grafted on. No affiliation or links - just relaying the ad to interested users of this forum. http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/cto/4348726123.html This car began life back in 2002 as a CMC 3 inch extended frame. Toyota AE86 based car. The previous owner rebuilt the front half of the frame to Brunton Stalker specs. Upper and lower control arms are from a stalker kit. Toyota corolla struts converted and altered for proper geometry. Steering shaft has spherical bearings. Rear axle is LSD rear end from an 87 Corolla with 3.58 final drive (70 mph 2nd gear) and disc brakes. 4-link rear end with spherical bearings and panhard rod. Diamond racing wheels 13x8 with Sumitomo tires. Lots of tread left on the tires. Engine is a 20-valve 4age with throttle body injection. The previous owner rebuilt the bottom end of the motor with new bearings, rings, and gaskets. The ECU is a Megasquirt standalone fully programmable fuel and ignition management. Custom air intake to allow for a filter or forced induction. I'll also include a set of velocity stacks with the car as well. Fuel surge tank under 7 gallon tank to eliminate fuel starve. Walbro 255 inline fuel pump. Exhaust is custom made equal length 4-1 header with 3 inch exhaust that features two internal auger mufflers. Innovate LC-1wideband O2 sensor and controller. Body work: Aluminum interior and side panels. Rear end is aluminum wrapped in black vinyl. Front and rear fenders are high quality fiberglass from a Stalker. Hood and scuttle are also high quality fiberglass from Stalker but custom made with no scoop. Car also features a carbon fiber dash with Autometer gauges, and carpeted floors. Kirkey racing seats with brand new covers (I will also include the old set of covers as well). Paint is base/clear coat Dodge Viper blue. Chassis is painted Rustoleum silver. This is a great car. I have owned it for 4 years and put a couple thousand miles on it since getting it street legal. Rides very nicely on bumps and also handles very well. Street legal, registered and insured in PA. Titled as a 1962. Inspection is good through July 2014. Good power and very sleek and clean looking. $11000 Looks to be in great condition. The Toyota engine is a gem, well suited for seven duties. Price is very reasonable to start at.

Well it was never going to be the Volkswagen Golf eh? :cheers: If you want a 620R then I hope you like RHD.....

Hi Michael I used this Hella Supertone dual horn kit: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/hla-003399801?seid=srese1&gclid=CMDgwLjA5LwCFcdQOgodtDsAGg I would shop around as I bet you can find it cheaper elsewhere without much effort. Cheers mike

and lastly a 2004 Diva Speedster. It looks like a seven I suppose.
