V6 Exige GT Front Uprights (20mm Drop)
Be the first to write a review
V6 Exige Road and Track day GT Uprights.
A great handling upgrade for V6 track day enthusiasts especially if running lower ride height and sticky compound tyres.
The complete unit can be supplied pre-assembled and can include New BEARING packs with speed / ABS sensors if required and our special High Tensile Cap Head bolts.
Eliseparts have been manufacturing billet uprights for over 16+ years and in this time we have developed and improved the designs with the help of Lotus Motorsport .
Our uprights are installed and raced on over 300 Lotus race and track cars throughout the world.
This latest design is the ideal upright for modified Exige V6 as we have improved overall stiffness yet managed to save weight.
The centre hub has been repositioned 20mm higher thus allowing up to a 20mm drop in ride height without any change in wishbone angle.
This is VERY significant as it keeps the correct wishbone angles and greatly improves low ride height stability.
For example if you want your vehicle to run at 120mm ride height, this will need a minimum 15mm drop from standard which will change the wishbone angle by up to 3 degrees, whereas with these uprights that angle will not change at all for the same ride height.
We have found the ideal ride height for a V6 Road and Track day car to be 115-120mm front and 120 -125mm rear.
The hub upright itself has been also been designed to facilitate 2 degrees more camber than the Original Steel upright allows.
You will notice a vast difference in the handling characteristics and your car will be greatly improved with this relatively simple change.
1. HARD Anodised aircraft specification 6262-T6 aluminium dissipates heat better so increases lifespan of front wheel bearings

3. Specifically designed and machined for more camber adjustment than the original.
4. CNC machined from 6262-T6 alloy, stronger, yet no heavier than OE steel version.
