Headlight upgrades any? and where from
2003 V8 TT replied to MrP's topic in Interior/Exterior/Lights/Glass/Alarms/ICE/HVAC
Here's your complete Esprit HID install guide: http://www.alxlee.com/Lotus/EspritHID/EspritHID.html -
Can someone please advise on the difference in sound between a rattling cat vs. a rattling heat shield on a V8? Better yet, can someone please post a picture of heat shields on a V8, so I know where they are? I have a rattling sound -- sounds like marbles in a can -- and I'm thinking it's the $$$ cat that needs to be replaced. I'm going for aftermarket high-flow cats. But I don't want to spend the money if it's just the heat shields. Thanks in advance!

Sewing machine, huh? Hmmm...why stop there? Hehe -
Also check your front body-to-chassis mounts.

Slight variation of the topic, but what do K&N's sound like when gunning it in the V8? Can you hear it being different than the stock air filters?

Looking for that "magical" exhaust note

You are exactly correct. -
Central Door Locking Module

I've learned to live with driving the car with the doors unlocked at all times. Lives of car jackers targeting Esprits just got easier. -
"They all do that, Sir." Additionally, I've noticed that when my car is crawling in 1st gear (vehicle moving slowly, with 1st engaged, and feet off all pedals), and I suddenly push down the clutch pedal, the engine revs up to 1100-1200 for a second or two before coming back down to around 900.

AP brake pads & disks
2003 V8 TT replied to T-Man's topic in Suspension/Brakes/Wheels/Hubs/Steering/Geo
There's a complete set of Esprit V8 AP brakes (rotors + caliper + pads) on eBay right now. Could be the deal of the century: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Lotus-Espri...emZ170271610084 -
Best location for CD changer?
2003 V8 TT replied to j900jpw's topic in Interior/Exterior/Lights/Glass/Alarms/ICE/HVAC
CD changers are so 90's... :-) MP3s in HDDs -- right in the receiver (looks nicer and takes up no additional space). -
baby wipes. does wonders. gentle enough for a baby's bottom, good enough for your rims.
