yellowss7 Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Nicely optioned car! Looks like you got a nice one. Only problem I see is that it's never been Autoxed, or on a track, spent most of its time in a nice garage, and probably never saw more than 4000 rpm on a nice Sunday drive around town. Make sure that you correct those problems ASAP!!!! Good luck with it!! Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHKflyer52 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Nice 7...I like the color a lot and I agree with Tom about correcting those problems as soon as you can. PS: I think your Elise will be parked a lot more once the 7 shows up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11Budlite Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Nice Caterham you have on the way! I've often thought that an Elise would make a nice daily driver to go with a Seven. Excuse my ignorance, but what's a K42 motor. Is that a Honda? Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaz Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 i plan to swap out the toyota motor for a k42 I think the correct motor code is K20 - RSX or K24 for 2.4 liter. Back in the day I could tell you all about the old B seires motors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drew... Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 MNLotus - a track day at the new BIR "short track" would allow for a great opportunity to correct those problems! Welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitcat Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Great cars! Which will be faster on the track, the stock Caterham, or the 400 hp Elise? My money is on the Caterham. You will have fun finding out, keep us informed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
