Re: Atom 3.5 Standard brakes - M1144

If there is no "Alcon" typing on your callipers you should have the 1-piston-floating-callipers of the standard brakes with 240mm discs. The standard brakes had plain discs, the sports brake package had drilled or grooved discs of the same size. These callipers were also fitted to the MGF,...

Re: Atom 3, Retrofit 6 point harness

May I also ask others for measures of the hole position?
I now took my seatbench out and 10cm from the front seem to be a bit less to me. (?)
Thanks

Re: Atom 3, Retrofit 6 point harness

Is there a kind of configurator?
I cannot even find an overview of the available parts, belts, adjusters.
May I ask about their price?
Would be very interested in photographs if not too much of inconvenience.

Re: Atom 3, Retrofit 6 point harness

I have not yet decided, which harness to take. I already bought used Ariel ones, but shipping procedure was too complicated from UK to EU so I unfortunately could not get them. Basically I would prefer them as the original ones. Indeed I have the Willans mentioned in my registration and I agree, thi...

Re: Atom 3, Retrofit 6 point harness

Thank you guys. The Schroth B23 KIT seems to be a good solution. Also thank you for the position. Am I right to assume, that this hole was also sawed afterwards? I also read the Schroth document. Indeed some quite important information I would not had thought about. Now I am wondering, whether an ad...

Atom 3, Retrofit 6 point harness

I would like to retrofit 6 point harnesses but realised, that I do only have 1 eye bolt per side and also the holes in my seat bench are not really positioned for the crutch strap. Their position very close to the back seems to be more for draining purpose but for this they do look quite oversized. ...

3" harness, seat belts ** Now SOLD **

It seems, that the content in my former thread disappeared due to the forum issues and also a PM I sent. (?)

So again :-)
If anybody likes to sell the seat belts with the 2" lap and 3" shoulder belts, I will be thankful for a hint.

Thank you

Referring to your "Dream Car" topic may I ask what is your current idea regarding registration?

Re: Insurance... again

I am afraid it is not possible to use the Kurzzeitkennzeichen.

In the red frame in your screenshot above it says, that the car needs to have German registration papers (Fahrzeugschein und Fahrzeugbrief) and a valid TÜV approval (similar to MOT).

Re: Gear shifting gate mechanism

I received information from Mike Satur, that the MGF (not MGTF) one would be correct.

Atom 1 and 2, same rear standard brake?

Could perhaps somebody confirm, that the rear 240mm standard brake discs are the same for Atom 1 and Atom 2.

Intention is to switch to 280mm brake discs.
I know, that the according kits fit to the Atom 2, so hopefully they are the same.(?)

If it helps: At least referring to the Atom 3 I could confirm, that once started the fan is running independent from the road speed.

Re: Gear shifting gate mechanism

6 speed, is this including reverse?

Otherwise the Atom 1 had a 5 speed. Perhaps that may make the difference.(?)
