lewis p Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Ah right. I did it in 2013. Didn't realise the bryniau was this weekend. I haven't done much since that one we broke the car then my nav moved away. Can't go watch as I'm going to race retro sun and booked a hotel down there. Which motor club do you belong to ?

upk Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share Posted February 21, 2015 Sorted and running sweet. Timing belt had jumped 2 teeth because I had set tensioner incorrectly when I replaced water pump! Was very lucky with this. Checked compression and all is well!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upk Posted March 28, 2015 Author Share Posted March 28, 2015 (edited) Spent the last week on holiday in gran canaria . One lazy week I must say but can get stuck in to finish off those small jobs before I book in for the MOT. Still not sorted wheels out yet so need to pull my finger out on that one.

upk Posted May 24, 2015 Author Share Posted May 24, 2015 (edited) A couple of finishing jobs today:- Sun screen added And removed original GTE wheel and fitted a Persona TVR wheel ( may get my old irmscher wheel re leathered and fit that later as it uses same boss so easy swap over). Will get a decent interior photo tomorrow if it's sunny. It's not coming out if it's raining!! Edited May 24, 2015 by upk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
