My MR2 3sgte engine build Pic Heavy

[tbdevpaul]

I need to start recognising people. That is one dodgy fecking car park mate

 

[Boydie]

It is lol I hadn't been at it in ages and just as it happened I was there 3 weeks in a row lol

I was with ChrisUUC, the guy that left his phone in your front seat but I think we were chatting to your passenger when he realised that!

 

[tbdevpaul]

yeah I know chris alright seen him in town on friday night too !!. took carson out for a spin last night too and he seemed to enjoy it. Introduce yourself properly next time buddy !!

 

[Carson]

Great news Paul and i know your more than pleased now the work is complete.

I had a run out in this last night and was speechless, very very quick indeed..and i just loved that screamer pipe

 

[tbdevpaul]

thanks carson buddy hope it has made you even more determined to get yourself a 2

 

[Carson]

Indeed.. I had a huge smile on my face the rest of the evening.. The sound of yours is crazy..

 

[tbdevpaul]

yeah buddy the sound is worth the time and money alone mate and a new exhaust may have to be on the cars in the near future too so i think a Berk System will be going on

 

[Carson]

I love the system thats on at present mate..looks and sounds great!

 

[tbdevpaul]

I know mate the current system is a greddy power extreme but I can sense that the baffles aint going to last too much longer. i wont be changing it until they fail as I love my exhaust but Im just planning ahead !

 

[Carson]

Just save urself the hassle of replacing it and sell up Paul

 

[tbdevpaul]

Give me sometime to enjoy it mate LOL


Maybe towards the end of 2009 LOL

 

[Carson]

LOL worth an effort

 

[tbdevpaul]

Im sure you will find a cracker yourself mate and then the project can begin on your motor !!

 

[Gwrinkle]

Great thread mate, and one hell of a Two. Can't wait to see her

 

[Graham2]

Get the vids up on youtube mate! Look forward to seeing this in the flesh at the Jap meet.

 

[MR2 super GT]

how do you find the videos on youtube?

 

[Chris Mac]

would i have seen you somewhere around the odyssey or town last night in this??

 

[tbdevpaul]

im trying to get my mate stuarty to put them up on youtube fellas so bear with me.

Nah Chris car was in for final checks yesterday for the MOT today which im Happy to say it breezed through

 

[Carson]

Take it the emmissons where spot on then Paul?

 

[Boydie]

I take it they were if he got through

 

[tbdevpaul]

Seemed to be mate. Spud put it through for me down in lisburn and according to him the guy didnt seem that interested today in finding faults. recommended that I change my front tyres which I was going to do anyhow and get a proper 4 wheel allignment. Apart from that 1 bulb on the dashboard for my full beam wasnt working and everything else was 100%. So 12months of motoring now sorted I hope !!

Another good mate lost his MR2 on a diesel spill in england on the motorway on Sunday and was unconcious for an hour !! He is the sub editor of MR2Only and his car was on the way to being very special and now its a wreck so as usual Im going to be very very careful in mine !!

 

[tbdevpaul]

Yeah boydie sometimes with a 95 year car they dont give a damn on emmissions but on the other hand if they take a keen interest in emmissions then I reckon it would struggle but I could always run it lean for the test and limp to the centre !! I know from other tubby owners that they have failed in the past due to being compared to the readings for the NA Mr2 as the Tubby didnt or maybe still doesnt exist on the MOT Centre computers (not sure how accurate that story is though)

 

[mrloaf]

one of the nicest modded mr2's about, for sticking with it through the rough!

 

[tbdevpaul]

Thanks Loaf

Was tough enough but a very good experience and learned lots for my next project
