    Elise S1 gear linkage

    Hi all, I’m looking to improve my Elise S1 gearshift feel. When I move the gearstick to the left towards 1/2 it doesn’t return to neutral which gives me a rather tingly feeling down below when downshifting from higher gears.    I have studiously read the service manual, diligently watched YouTube videos and determinedly scoured forum posts. I think I’ve isolated the issue to the cable itself.    1) after disconnecting the cable at the front end, the bell crank moves freely

    Nitron NTR 40 fast road vs Bilstein + Eibach springs

    I need to replace x4 dampers on my new to me S2 Exige S. My driving will be up to 5  track days a year with the rest being lots of UK B roads. I want to prioritise keeping road compliance and the roads around me can be very crap/broken . I am torn between the NTR40 Fast road (standard F425 R550 or maybe custom spring rates...),  or just replacing with the factory spec Bilstein + Eibach springs. I would really appreciate if anyone could share some real world experience / opinion on this as I am g

    Elise radiator change - bleeding!

    Hi everyone  I will shortly be removing the front clam on my 2010 S3 Elise to replace the radiator, fans, pipes and tow eye support.  Looks reasonably straightforward, if the fixings come out OK after years of British weather!

Known where the bleed points are exactly at the rear? It’s a 1.6 Toyota 1ZR.  Any pointers appreciate

    Newbie question

    As the title suggests , a newbie query. I have just bought an S2 Elise , 2007 with the Toyota 1ZZ power unit in ‘ touring spec’. That means electric windows, a radio and , err, not sure what else. Anyway, that is not the subject of the query. The car is blue with a cream interior. The latter I don’t plan to keep. In fact , already bought some equivalent second hand door cards in black and am looking hard at a pair of Corbeau LE seats . So, first part of my query centres on those Corbeau seats. A
