Muffleman Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Hazards on, I guess was about 8:30 and near J7/J8 anti-clock. Nice looking car, nothing too serious I hope ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEO Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Yep that was me. Bad news as well engine totally cut out on me with a loud screeching coming from the engine. Got it towed to TDI in Essex of which they have SO FAR diagnosed that 1 of the camshafts has broken of which that also broke the timing belt. Oh well it just means I will have to get a set of the new HKS camshafts and Pulleys now "YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO LOOK ON THE POSITIVE SIDE OF THINGS I SAY".

Muffleman Posted September 28, 2006 Author Share Posted September 28, 2006 Yeah work car, I have a stock Silver TT Trial Supra tucked up at home for sunny days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEO Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 A stock cam snapped???!!! :o Yep, although this was due to very low oil pressure thus not supplying enough oil to the engine causing the cam to seize and snap. Dont even know what state the turbo's are in yet. I feel a HKS T51R coming on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEO Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 i saw you to, sorry to hear mate.i was going the opposite way. I think I may have seen you or it may have been muffleman, I also saw a red supe going the opposite way. Just wish someone in a supe was coming the same way as I was and had stopped if not to just have a chat as I was waiting for a low level loader for nearly 3hrs and I was bored as hell.

Sorry mate, I was taking my boss to work (he lives near me) and I don't think he would've enjoyed the chat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerry Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Saw MrT last night Neil... sorry to hear about the car, thats crap news. On the other hand... it may be God's way of saying "Go Single" Good luck, either way.... Love to Eva Cheers G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEO Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Thanks Jerry, That is exactely what I thought go single but with what it is going to cost just to fix the engine it is not possible. In fact as soon as the car is fixed I am selling the car so if you are still looking Say hi to Sue from the both Eva and I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
