Hi Andy, It was the full exchange one from SJ £650 I think at the time, I think they have both gone up. If you fit the full replacement hose let me know if / what difference it makes? Thanks

Hi Andy, I did the clutch last year and new fly wheel, I have to get the old one ground up. I went with the AP std clutch as running std engine, I also replaced the slave cylinder as the original bleed nipple broke off. I have noticed they also do a direct slave cylinder hose from the master cylinder I wonder if this makes the pedal slightly lighter?

Thanks Steve, On other engines like the Vauxhall c20xe which runs a similar process the relief valve comes in when the oil pressure reaches a certain pressure. This can be seen on the oil pressure gauge. Prior to changing the spring I was seeing between 3-4 bar in normal driving conditions. I changed the spring which cost from memory £5 and then I saw pressure improve to 4-5 bar. This seemed a cheap way to improve oil pressure and better lubrication?

Hi, A question about the PRV, can you buy just the spring? I have found on other engines that the spring can loose its pressure through time and I have replaced the spring and it has improved oil pressure. Thanks.

Fantastic to watch... love the sound of the motor and his enthusiasm for the car..... why would you not!

I have just visited Central Lotus to look and sit in the Emira, It is wonderful to see such a car, and when I sat in I had not had that feeling of just sitting in a car since I bought my Esprit in 2004.... I had to walk out the showroom as I felt I would/ could spend a lot of money. The sales lady was laughing, it looks and feels a fabulous car.... and the quality, well done lotus....

Club Lotus.

My valuation was for the insurance for agreed value, this is re-assed every two years.

I have had my car independently valued nearly two years ago at £46K, that is a 2001 GT with 24k on the clock. Thanks Tim

Thanks for the info about Cotterill Eng CC, I may pop over to see if they can lick up my V8 flywheel?

They do look smart, I do like the flexibility of a HAAS machine and the rotary table, 4th Axis. I used to enjoy being involved in machining.

Not for me, if you like it then that is the main thing.... enjoy the drive👍

Sounds awsome.....👍

Looks fab mike, I think the cooler on the top is for the gearbox oil? Looking forward to ignition👍

Hi, I have had Falkens fitted on the front for some years, I have been highly satisfied with them especially the wear rate, grip and steering feel is good in the dry, I have been satisfied with them in the wet.
