Car was perfect on the NC500 trip other than I think the steering UJ overheating at times! Need to get photos off phone and do a proper write up

Absolutely epic! How have I only just found this thread?
Have you sold the TE37s already?
Seeing the S54 explode has made me pretty nervous. Any ideas what caused it?
Dunno mate! This thread must be a year old or so now at least! Have you sold the TE37s already?

Yeah sold em to finance the E88s which are more use to me as far wider!
Yeah, the design of the engine is not perfect and you should consider shells consumables if you drive it properly! If you're around 100k just rebuild it now. I've seen about 5 via Hack and people with the exact same failure this past year.

Did you do any preventative maintenance to your S54? I've been told to get the shells done before it goes on track. I'm on 110k... yikes!
Good lord I realised how far behind this thread is. I've crashed it and rebuilt it a bunch of times now lol.
