Old Lotus don't die they get fixed and if it cannot be fixed with a BIG hammer then you have an electrical problem.

Hi there and welcome, what did your car start as I presume a k-series but a 111s or 118bhp?

What pads are you running (brakes not mentioned on the spec)
Cheers

Started as a 111s not sure on power then. It was a track day toy for the last owner.

It's running AP 4 pots on the front and AP Disks with std calliper so rear. Not look at the pads yet. That's this weeks jod when I rebuild the suspension back up...

Doug. Where's the Buckles ?

It was done by the last owner. I have a dyno print out at 209 but I think that might be a bit optimistic :homer lol
I'll get the map checked at Day Tuner by Damian before I race it up the hill or track.

Hi, one thing I've found is that the front alloy under tray is missing. Big ask but is there some one local that would let my make a template of it so I can make one ? :woo
