Charge Cooler Installation

Charge Cooling

As per my other blog entries, as it stands the car now runs about 317bhp on the Jackson Racing Super Charger and oil cooler.

I am still running Stark's standard 4:2:1 exhaust manifold as I am yet to convince myself that I can shell out the £1K plus for a 4:1 system (watch this space...   Read Full Entry

Vw Engine Trial Fit

06 November 2012

Posted by Dazzx10r in Dazzx10r's Blog
Next up was to test fit the VW engine and find out where it was best suited for fitting before making up the engine mounts, I wanted the engine as low as possible and as far forward as possible, but I still had to leave enough room to fit the Inlet manifold and throttle body as well as thinking about the driveshaft position and making sure that the engine...   Read Full Entry

We Start At The Beginning!

21 March 2011

Posted by tomjude in tomjude's Blog
I thought I'd start a blog about my ownership of my Lotus, so here we go!

Well this is my first Lotus, a silver 2009 Elise S. I only picked it up a couple of weeks ago and I absolutely love it. Having only had my first elise experience in june last year, it has been a relatively short time from desire to ownership, certainly a lot shorter than...   Read Full Entry

Its been ages since I've posted anything on MLOC, in fact September 2009 seems to be my last entry.

I'm still enjoying life with my Elise, a red 58 reg R on a private plate, with a Pipercross kit. I've done just over 13k miles, so am on my second set of rear tyres and heading for my second service.

Having bought the car new from Stratstone...   Read Full Entry

My New Elise

07 June 2009

Posted by Rick in Rick's Blog
After 2 years away from Lotus cars I have sold the Z4M- a great car- but having previously owned 4 Elises, I had to get back. I hope to collect my new SC on Tuesday 9th June after Carl has fitted Venture shield. I have had protective film fitted to 3 of my cars in the past and it's well worth it to keep the stone chips away, though you must get an...   Read Full Entry

Comfort

10 June 2006

Posted by Stoney in Stoney's Blog
Just got back Wimbledon, my first long journey in my Elise 111R that I've had for just over a week now. Just over 800 miles on the clock now can not wait untill it's properly run in so I can really put my foot down.

I was disappointed on how much the roof leaked even with the hard top on :)

Who said these cars are not comfortable? I found it to...   Read Full Entry

1983 Eclat Excel.

07 December 2005

Posted by in Martin R's Blog
As some of you may know im also the proud owner of a 1983 Eclat Excel. Its 2.2 litre with Toyota running gear. I believe Lotus made 186 of this type. I wonder how many are still going ? Liz has nicknamed it Bob, which stands for big old beast. Any similarity in this name and the name of the previous owner is a pure coincidence B) Its also fantastic fun....   Read Full Entry

Ventureshield

23 October 2005

Posted by in Carlylove's Blog
I have just spent 3 days with a very nice set of artists brushes, touch-up paint & lacquer sorting out the stone chips on my car in anticipation of an imminent application of VentureShield to protect the paintwork.Firstly, paint chips or scratches, in my 36 years of time on this planet cannot be "painted out", "taped over", or any...   Read Full Entry
