Steves tam project

[SteveSPG]

just get it done. keep thinking i ought get on a track day just so i can scare myself silly

[SteveSPG]

now i know we are out of "major mods" territory, but as the tam build thread is here.....

Taster shot received from DTT this morning, just loose cover laid over the seat so i can see what its going to look like.

very subtle, i like it a lot.



fantastic news is that Mrs SPG told me to get it retrimmed as she thought the interior didn't work with the exterior....Result!

wanted to fit the speakers in a recess not flush on the door cards, so borrowed some TVR panels off a friend that had some TVR moulded recesses, , made a mould, and built some recesses into my door panels



these take 130mm speakers (front diameter 160mm)

just received a few more shots from DTT...very subtle, just what i asked for.

looking good.

Finally got my oil pressure sensor working today. removing the old ECU means there was no appropriately resisted signal input for the pressure sender, so it didn't work, therefore have been using a std oil pressure gauge instead for a few weeks.


sent the dash ECU off to Paul at PS electronics, all done and not expensive

[SteveSPG]

the rest of the tam interior is now off to Daves too..

last thing I've to sort really is the speedo.

the new diff doesn't have a trigger wheel for the speedo sensor, and after failing to get the one in the 6060 to speak to the dash, will make up an insert to put the tvr speed sensor into the 6060 gearbox. i can then get the dash edu recalibrated accordingly.

speedo sorted (almost)

the guys at work machined up a bung to hold the tvr speedo sensor in the gm speedo sensor hole...wired it up tonight, and it all works.

had no idea what the speedo would read, but its pretty close, speedo reads about 8% over the sat nav
