Hi Simon
Missed your run mate, good time

[garym01]

Yes JJ all sorted now mate posted a 12.49 on sunday with my mate driving so well pleased.

So now even more show (new paint again for this year and DVD/Sat Nav) and lots more go also !!

Will go in the shop for a paint touch up as someone clipped my wing mirror, will do that just prior to the DC event at tatton park in June.

Andy F ! What the......

Hi John
More problems
Do you remember when my oil pump pully came off just after the build and the cams picked up, well i think it must be something to do with that.
As i went into 3rd i looked in the mirror and there was smoke pilling out of the engine lid, then when i backed off i could here a loud metalic tapping sound, when i got the car home (towed) i removed the cam cover and a couple of the loabs were kind of rounded on the sharp edge, gonna get the head off in the next couple of days and see/hope that nothings happened to the pistons
Besides that, the car was crap 13.5s again
20k and the car is slower than it was before................nice!!!

Awww man, your like the grim reaper when you get near cars !! Hey, come to think of it - you were near mine at TOTB we'ren't you !! fingers crossed its not a couple of shells picked up some crap on the bottom end - metallic tapping noise - not to mistaken with exhaust gasket passing a little ?? perhaps another crack in the manifold ??

Another possible tip could be the cam cover itself, the underside of it is retained with a couple of grub screws / holding down bolts - if you've had that apart to bling it up ? may have vibrated loose ( loctite recommended ! ) = sagging, catching the lobes ?

Ignore times and speeds, get the car running mechnically reliable ! times will come when everything works together.

My hondah is paying off for me at the moment - not getting frustrated or stressed with anything on my MR2 ( not driving it ! ) !! Only problem is with the honda, I think the getup and go has got up and gone ! and got some appetite to go with it !! lol !! 32 miles out of a tenner !!

I'll be building in a months time when i free up some time from working on every bu88er elses car

best time

where
Generally flog it up elvington when the seasons open.

Why? who are you, where do you come from?, what do you drive?, what colours your car?, is it standard ? whats your favourite food ?
