Got my car yesterday, man that LSD makes a difference almost turned it around the first i took a 90 degree bend in first. The UCR is superb i cannot believe the difference between it and the standard gearbox, it’s seamless accelaration is superb. The motorsport motor also seems to be much more willing to rev to 8000rpm in each gear.
Luckily i had got my eliseparts exhaust back from the guy who bought my previous exige after he took out the motor and still had a K&N filter lying around so by this afternoon it was sounding like it should again. Still running a bit rich but i don’t want to part with it for a day just yet.
Having read the topic the other day on exige’s being more than just car’s i couldn’t agree more, a major decision for me in purchasing another exige was the fact that this bulletin board is available and everyone on it is so helpful that i am never only relyant on dealers or mechanic’s for information and solutions to problems. Because we only have 5 of them in this country and 2 no longer have the lotus motor’s in them our knowledge pool is limited.
Apologise for the length of this post, it’s almost as wide as my smile was the first time i stood on the brakes and remembered why these cars are so fantastic.
