Do you have a spec anywhere listing what's on it ? Can proberbly give you some pointers on the brake upgrades but in all honesty the ford callipers , decent fluid and pads will give you really decent stopping power. A term you will learn is TADTS And is what i would respond to your linkage...

Where it falls relative to the dash is important , most people find the short bent one falls easier to hand due to the driving position being more laid down Shoulders tend to be further back relative to first gear Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

You got very long arms then , , Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

You could be correct I can ask Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

When it's all sorted get a full geo and corner weight Can't remember where you are but blink in Cheshire or Northampton Motorsport Or playskool Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

The pro races are a nice look Would have stuck 6" on the front though Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk Let's hope you got through the offset minefield ok

The factory one with bronze bushes has always just worked in all honesty I gave them huge amounts of grief and only replaced one once once you use the decent quaife shifter and a solid new extender the shift is a nice clean snick between gates It feels fine Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

It's the extender that gives the issue Yes run the quaife caterham short linkage and a new extender Once those are in you will find its back to being spot on again. Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

140bhp go like stink ............... you will be surprised , that won't be under 5 seconds to 60 so can be outsprinted by a golf/a3/leo/1 series bmw . things get quick above 200bhp in them, once your north of 400bhp per tone they feel quick ...... I used to run 250bhp 480kgs on slicks ...

As our friend said above , Steve Tillet will make a custome seat as he will have for both of us in the past :) but you bought the wrong car :P it is most likely JK only , or one of the westfield race seats

can you confirm you have bought the wrong car ? and have an SEI and Not an SEI W ,(i know the answer as i can see you have fixed rear arches) i assume its not a W and you may have an issue , however a caterham is narrower between the tunnel and the outer panel , and i would suggest that Revie ...

No no they don't ;-) Gimme 5 Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

Barnby wheels also have a habit of shattering in the middle , Image would be a far better bet , too many barnby caterham wheel failures hence people nowadays won't with a bargepole .

No 3.92 is nicer both road and track Hated the 3.62 on the road You might not like the long first on the road to be fair either but that sounds a plan Avoid a cage , get a decent hood made that fits and enjoy it Those bits sound a plan so far Somewhere in the build will be reciept for...

If you can go 7 on the rear , 6 looks a bit silly You're not on big power as 165 is fairly mundane in them and it won't take long to get used to . When you get north of 220 it's interesting as don't forget it has the aerodynamics of a brick . For road work the 3.62 diff is ok but if you work...

What's up with the box ?? You can go 13" no problem , i could just about run 8 inch rears but more normal is 7 rear and 6 front. Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

Yep , one year we did 2 days at zandvoort , then a day in Amsterdam before driving to spa for 2 days Then a month later 2 days at historic Dijon then 2 days at Magny Cor . Had the westy shipped in a lorry and drove over in the Elise as the wife wanted her own car rather than share . However...

Can't say i have paid for a Palmer'sport day either Then again a track day all is is 500 quid in real money Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

@Waitey If you need inspiration http://harvsport.com/westie/index.htm You will also find the caged cages and mog Motorsport pages have lots of pics with my car and a black s2000 westy as about 10 years ago we developed lots of bits with both companies Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

i think a grand would be far better spent here for a day http://www.palmersport.com/ but then i have done both although my day driving out on the roads was a bunch of classic supercars and cost way less than a grand Palmersport is the best day driving someone elses cars money can buy , done...

I'd switch that diff from a 3.62 to a 3.92 Be good to know what ratios that box has Is it straight cut or a semi synchro bgh box with a long first ? In most cases a straight cut is a total mare to shift and is only really useful for sprinting. The k is also not that torquey compared to a...

There is an assembly that moves the gear selector back (assuming the gear knob is not under the dash) It will be worn , replace the whole thing Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

And i have all the suspension setup and mod ideas you could ever want ;-) My setup became legendary across the north once my car was sold up that way Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

@Waitey http://westermann-motorsport.com/index.php?page=categorie&cat=56 All the bodywork you need Main body from Westfield order lightweight race :-) Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

Ooooooh , now we are talking Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

Yep People often quote stuff without knowing the full story His stuff i have seen in Geneva is all top stuff His Chelsea showroom is full of nice stuff too Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk

Nice to see an RS though (not the actual car) Fortunately think we slowed enough but had been flashed earlier Renault megane estate with camera out the rear window and flash attached to the bumper !!

To be fair Kahn design have been a bit more than a range rover bling factory for a long time. They actually make their own Aston based car , do conversions to about every supercar known , have a hugely wealthy client base and have a f**king huge stand at geneva every year which isn't exactly a...

It becomes natural eventually , i am used to caterhams etc with light front ends and narrow ish tyres Your modulation becomes better though it's easier without servo assistance

Just got to the bottom of the post and the above is spot on , some people corner weight across the diagonals with the driver in the car and some across axles .......obviously the diagonal weighting and coros axel weighting is difficult to get the same , but the weight on each front wheel being...
