Re: Upgrade for 240mm Standard Brakes Atom 2 - 3.5

Did anyone make any progress here? I see Ariel list the sports package discs as out of stock for both the atom and nomad so I’m also looking for options.... A Euro based supplier would be ideal!

Atom 3.5 Wheel speed sensor?

Does anyone with an Atom3.5 happen to know where the wheel speed sensor is located? - On the Atom3 with a SPA dash there is a small plate on the transmission cover and a magnet on the left rear CV joint but having looked at pictures of 3.5's this seems to be missing.... Any info or pointers warmly r...

Brake pad info please!

Does anyone know or have any recommendations for replacement rear Sports package brake pads on an Atom3 ? If possible, I’d like to avoid double tax and import duty by sourcing them locally if they are a fairly common part but don’t know the sizes / type etc.

Appreciate any tips or pointers!

Cheers.

Re: Cat S 3.5 on YouTube

Secondly, I also find it interesting that people are leaving comments giving their opinion, when clearly they're not qualified to have that opinion (the curvature at the rear of newer chassis') and then claiming its a "complete write off to my UNTRAINED eye", followed by someone chomping ...

Re: Cat S 3.5 on YouTube

I was only messing but I get what you're saying, I bought mine from Ariel and paid the premium for it because I wanted confidence in the car and its history etc, as I live outside of the UK. I'm sure there are many dogs around (my 1st experience in an atom was in a pretty battered but great fun A3.5...

Re: Hello - new buyer

I'm going to stick my neck out and say it looks pretty good with the screen (especially the front 45' angle)...... although my 3 has one too so I'm maybe a little biased! ;-)

Re: Cat S 3.5 on YouTube

The latest installment was a bit of a worry but its interesting to watch in a morbid curiosity kinda way (at least for me).. I wonder if the factory are keeping an eye on the progress?

Re: Oil cooler location

I’d be tempted to keep the factory oil to water heat exchanger and add / replace the radiator & fan with better ones, it’s been discussed here a few times by people running in hotter climates etc. I’ve also seen a few people suggest adding the EWP setup if it’s not present, as this apparently al...

Re: Cat S 3.5 on YouTube

Wow, I though it looked like a complete mess until I saw the whole red Atom2 pic...... :o not surprised the factory didn’t want to go there again!? I hope the one in the videos doesn’t make its way back to the market, it looks like a complete write off to my untrained eye without a frame..... Wonder...

Re: Installing front number plate bracket

Hi Dan, I’ve installed the number plate holder to both types of lights on my atom - you mention yours are the ones from second picture? These are the regular atom 3 headlights, not the projector version and have a modified ‘stay’ which mount the bulb holders directly at least on mine.... If memory s...
