Stage 4
 Steven Hibbert's MP95
Kit Components:
Stage 2 Components
Full car set of AP Racing Brakes
Front and Rear Uprights
Centre Locking Wheels (Option)
Stage 4 is a conversion from a road Lotus to a full racecar, while again still remaining road legal. There is also the option of a handbrake. The kit is designed for maximum rigidity to give the car maximum traction and handling.
New Wishbone Suspension
As with stage two, all Lotus wishbones are replaced by Pilbeam’s racing suspension. A stiffer front anti roll bar can also be supplied.
Uprights
 Front and Rear Uprights
These are much lighter than the Lotus originals and are CNC machined from a solid aluminium block to greatly increase rigidity. The bearing carrier is now incorporated within the upright reducing the required components and fixings, reducing weight and increasing stiffness still further. The uprights solve the common problems with bearings that often trouble Lotus customers. Recent developments with a Lotus have allowed Pilbeam Racing to develop our existing uprights further still.
Bearing size is increased to cater for high performance use such as racing and track days.
Brakes
 Mounted AP Racing Brakes
As well as wanting cars to go fast we like them to stop quickly too, and this task is trusted to a full set of AP brake discs and callipers, using 315 mm front and 295 rear discs. Brake ducts and wheel speed sensors can be fitted, with a handbrake mount as an option.
Centre Locking Wheels
For the professional racer a modification can be made allowing for centre locking wheels. This allows quick wheel removal by using the large centre nut.
