Forrest 35 Report post Posted March 31, 2009 Beer is so bad for you Graham, especially the amounts you have consumed in the last few weeks, I say have maybe one or two more for celebration then go out and take the car out for a drive. Dr Nathan recommends it. KTHXBAI Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 35 Report post Posted March 31, 2009 (edited) Haha Nathan - don't worry I have been driving it plenty. Only way to discover the little problems. It's been causing a minor sensation amongst the car-enthusiast community up here. Word travels fast in a small town. TTYL gonna go have another beer. But as I'm not working on the car it won't count... Edited March 31, 2009 by bravo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 35 Report post Posted April 2, 2009 (edited) Flew through the cert. Just a small oil leak to fix - seals are in the post. (Not for the cert, for my peace of mind). Cert plate gets affixed next week. I'll go out to the shed in a minute and do a final beer count. I'm thinking about 87????

bravo 35 Report post Posted April 4, 2009 (edited) It takes 87 beers for me to do the above swap Proof. Nathan (Bram) wins a ride and a beer at the ANZAC cruise since I think he's coming up for it. Edited April 4, 2009 by bravo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bravo 35 Report post Posted April 6, 2009 Haha I surprised even myself. Its called dedication. My deadline was the ANZAC meet, and I thought I was going to be cutting it fine. Guess working to midnight on weeknights and still getting up at 6.30am for work gets things done! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 35 Report post Posted April 6, 2009 Oh and I just re-read the thread Martyn - the no chance was the giving up on beer (beet?) atogether - not your bid - although I have to admit I thought I'd crack a century. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

keen 6 Report post Posted June 17, 2009 have you got it certed yet and are there any changes to the tps hookup Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 35 Report post Posted June 17, 2009 Certed ages ago. Tuned ages ago. Haven't driven the car since the tune really. Been rocking out on the wet roads in my MR2. I want to adjust the tappets as there is some valvetrain noise, fix a small oil leak, and sort out the TPS S/C control before I put too many more miles on. I'm house hunting at the moment, and then I'll be moving, so as soon as that happens I'll get stuck in as I'm looking for a house with plenty of garaging. Waiting to hear back on one at the mo with a giant 2-3 car garage plus large concrete pad and carport. If it goes to plan will be moving within a fortnight.

How many driveshaft loops were you required, if any, to get your cert? And did you get the done by a shop or do them yourself, anything to look for ? Certain place they need to be put etc?
