This is always my first stop when looking through P.H as I find it the most interesting (excepting the occasional 'friendly banter') but nothing new for nearly a week!
Could this mean that all the S6 engines that were poorly built or with poor materials have now been re-built and we now have the reliability under the bonnet of a Nissan? wink

And you'd know that being a new member?

Anyway, I was just thinking exactly the same about how quiet it is in here. 4 years ago it was bonkers with endless tales of woe and "disgusted of Tunbridge Wells" type posts every 5 minutes.

It's because yes, the Speed 6 is now actually a reliable power plant [touches wood]. Virtually all posts are now to do with improving the performance rather than how to fix them in the first place which speaks volumes.

Well done to all those involved in getting the engine to where it is today. If only TVR had done more of it themselves, they'd likely still be here.

Cheers. 9 TVR's competing, amongst the various rally specials, but unfortunately no spectators as it's on military testing ground near Brecon, and apparently live rounds being used in area this time! tank

To get the ball rolling. The last word from mine last night as I swtiched it off was a bit of "clatter". Sounded like someone had dropped an empty tin of sardines. Roll on the Speed Six engine jokes. smile
