Racingshoe Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 Big winter upgrade project about to get underway. Would be interested in a 6-speed box sometime in the new year if anyone is thinking of selling. Just thought i'd ask early.......

Wahey Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 I have just finished fitting one to a 1.4 yesterday and drove for te first time today. With a lightened flywheel you would seriously not believe it was the same car. Testing on track tomorrow against my Superlight and TBH I don't reckon it will be far behind!!! Very worthwhile.

Sideways Mike Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Hi I am looking to sell mine later this year early next, it is 6 months old and in perfect working order. Would you have a five speedto part ex? Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racingshoe Posted September 22, 2004 Author Share Posted September 22, 2004 Hi Mike, I currently have a 5-speed and would be happy to part-ex. Why are you dumping the 6 in favour of a 5 speed ?

Sideways Mike Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 Hi I am using it to do RSA this year, with the new changes and budget restraints I will be looking to do inters next year which run on the 5 speed box and no LSD ( which I also need to sell) Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racingshoe Posted September 25, 2004 Author Share Posted September 25, 2004 Mike, Sounds good. Let me know when you're thinking of taking it out. I'm currently collecting a large pile of bits for my winter upgrade. Rik Rik Robarts - bl**dy bright orange 1.4k SS here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slider7 Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 Mike, I could be interested in your LSD ... 😳 Could you give me some more details please (age, spec, price ...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideways Mike Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 HI I will be taking out all of the kit in Oct/November depending on work commitments, a winter project similar to yourself. Mike The LSD is a 1.5 year old casing, but the LSD was installed brand new in October, approx 1500 miles pricewise I will have to check what Caterham want for one first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darren Posted September 29, 2004 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Hi Rik, Did you fit the exhaust silencer ok, just looked at our website the colours not that bad mate. Tell me how the engine upgrade goes Darren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racingshoe Posted September 30, 2004 Author Share Posted September 30, 2004 Hi Darren, Thanks for the complement on the colour ! I just need an extra 4'' of inlet pipe before the 'zorst fits - this is currently being fabricated. I think this is because the SLR silencer may have been expecting a 4-2-1 manifold where mine is the 4-1 racing jobbie...... I will let you know how it goes. Cheers mate !
