masijim Posted April 30, 2008 Posted April 30, 2008 I have a DSK seven. I can't speak for all DSK cars, but mine and the one other I've seen have a nose thats slightly different that most. It droops a good bit toward the front, and the opening is relatively small. My openning is about 6 inches tall and 16 inches wide. My car has a slightly hotrodded RX7 motor. RX7s run hot and I live in Phoenix, so I need all the help I can get. I'm hoping that a nose with a larger opening will help. It does run reasonably cool with the nose removed. My challenge is that I have no idea what nose will fit my car. I've taken some measurements, but other than RMSCI, I don't know who might be able to provide a nose. I've sent my measurements off to RMSCI, but haven't yet heard back from them. So, here's what I'm looking for: 1) Can anybody tell me of other sources for a nose that I should explore ? 2) Might there be somebody in Phoenix with a Caterham car who would allow me to check if their nose would fit on my car ? 3) Does anybody have a spare nose, and are they willing to check it against my measurements to be confident it would mount to my car ? Thanks folks. I'm very glad you're here.
roll a 7 Posted April 30, 2008 Posted April 30, 2008 Check the frapper map for cars in the Phoenix area. Contact them for help and they can likely refer you to other 7 type cars in the area.

Thanks folks. I'm very glad you're here. The nose is off my Caterham SV for awhile, I'd be happy to take some measurements for you if you think your car is built to the wide body standard. Skip
locostv8 Posted April 30, 2008 Posted April 30, 2008 Contact JackMcCornack at http://www.kineticvehicles.com/ No matter what you get you get it will prbably involve some fabrication and the chance to learn about fiberglassing.
