There is a reply from the man himself, with pic.

Noooo
Missed that thread.

I missed that reply from Mark too!

He's got a new project underway so nothing's likely to happen to get the S2 back on the road soon by the sounds of things.

In the absence of any codes, perhaps the MFTS?
Not sure if just pulling the connector off is the correct test!

Yes Greg, the Sachs clutch is in. It's a heavier pedal than my old unit but the engagement isn't too severe. It's not bedded in yet, but feels good

Steve, which sachs did you go for?...as I'm running a 4 puck race sachs from the Greg S GB....

Hi Robin,

Agreed, the MFTS may be the culprit. With the reversed manifold and radiator on an angle it makes getting at it rather difficult. Probably a rad out job

Mike, I'm running the 4 puck sintered also. I'm used to it now and it's not savage at all. Bite is high on the peddle, so I'll try a little adjustment on the master cylinder pushrod.
What's yours like?

Ah! Well you could go to the ecu connector and pop out Pin 36 on the 3b I beleive. That should duplicate removing the connector from the MFTS. It would need to be repopulated if you desert the 3b brotherhood anyway.

Looking fantastic, Steve. Good work.

I actually like the DTM tailpipes, they are a period feature. It's a shame Scorpion made them all wonky though.
It's a shame you don't still have the Porsche Cups. I wouldn't part with mine, even if they are relegated to winter wheels.

They'll probably look a little less wonky when I get the exhaust mounts sorted

The rear box isn't sitting right which makes it look worse than they actually are.

A shot in the dark

You've missed out on putting up one picture that members normally do - The open rear window shot

[Rusty]

And where's the pretty girl draped over the bonnet, Tom_ style?

To follow...

I would have taken a few more, but as soon as I found somewhere useful we were told the yard was being locked up for the night. I got one shot and had to leave.

I couldn't find any nice looking hookers around the back of the Toolstation yard in Emersons Green

If anyone has a friendly wife/girlfriend that would like to drape themselves over my hood, please drop me a PM. Always happy to take a lady out for a ride

I first thought it was the clutch but I think it might be me.... my 1st-2nd changes are generally poor....but I've been reassured its not as heavy as some other high performance clutches out there....and with mine idling all over its still taking some getting used to......
