  1. Another Caterham?? We're dying to know what you've gotten yourself into now.
  2. Just made my belated reservation, and am spending the afternoon putting my car back together. Can’t wait to gat behind the wheel again and see everyone in June
  3. If it helps i have a performance (not race) clutch from Clutch Masters in my car.... (stock duratec, T9, aluminum flywheel) but my driving doesn't match yours.
  4. Beautiful pics!
  5. Maybe he’s building a Storker, Any insight Suave?
  6. yellow, orange, silver... all slow pokes compared to that green/white storker :auto:
  7. Once or twice... Hang in there
  8. Crossed wires??? Sounds about right. I sometimes wonder if some of these things are intentionally done so we can have the full experience putting these puzzles together?
  9. I’ve got some diagrams if you pm your email address should you proceed with the change
  10. Technically i think it 'may' be possible. practically i don't think so. When i changed mine I remember needing to remove the front cover (and crank pulley) which could not be done with engine in the car. In theory if you are able to get the tensioners disengaged, you should be able to do it with engine in. Either way you'll be getting intimate with your car. let us know how you make out p.
  11. I ordered bigheads from a fibreglass supplier in the UK as I couldn’t find them anywhere domestically at the time. Make sure you order extras! So far they work great http://www.ecfibreglasssupplies.co.uk

    Suspension

    Does anyone have a part# / source of Birkin suspension bushings? (wide-track S3) Mine became very squeaky last year. Polishing and treating the metal insert with anti-seize was recommended. Finally getting to this maintenance I found the flange on one of the nylon inserts has cracked and needs replacement.

  14. That makes sense: I know the Birkin rear calipers are VW with a little machining for clearance
  15. ear plugs and helmet when driving long distances on interstates. I put my ezpass on the top right corner of windscreen: This is a must for all the tolls between Boston & Millville Oh.. and watch out for moving chicanes in NJ. BlackHole very nicely handled a full sized mattress in the center lane two years ago. p.
  16. Wait for Lucky to gloat over his fish & chips run.
  17. Beware the road salt
  18. I’ve used U-Haul trailers several times. there are two versions of the same small car hauler: The older Painted trailer requires additional ramps to load a seven Due to under carriage clearance. the Newer galvanized trailer model does not. - see you in June. Pm me for additional details
  19. ? Depends on the kitchen counters?
  20. Whatever keeps the lights on. I would like to see the lady get in for a second drive. So far SWMBO is only up for one drive/year
  21. Extra parts? Those are standard for all seven builds. Love the color
  22. Congrats Bruce! Glad to hear you're getting another seven
  23. Where are you sourcing your aluminum tube? i have two in my system but have never been fully satisfied with them
