Project Tamama

8 months on...........

Firstly happy new year to everyone! bit late, but there you go!

Secondly wow cant belive its been 8 months since i finished my little tamama, how time flys!!

Cars been so far ace! a few niggle problems but nothing huge or too problematic! and i thought i would just keep you up to date with whats been going on, as its has been a good while.

Other than general servicing, changing the cam belt etc, ive managed to do a few more improvments to the car since last july, naturally all done myself.

Namely:

Tein S/Tech Lowing Springs
mFactory Oil cooler and oil filter relocation Kit
Bride Recliner Seat (i think its a brix but im not 100%)
Full set of Eagle F1's

Not a heck of alot, had to pay my insurnace off, then christmas came and now im saving for tuning :)

Anyway heres a load of piccys i just took today, it was clean, but then while trying to find a good piccy taking place it got mucked up :(

Anyway enjoy:





















The cooler kit has made a great differance, over summer my oil temps where reaching 110 deg C or more after some vtec'ing, now in the uk our summers arnt that warm and since my long term plans are to eventually move to malta, i thought it would make a worthy investment! And its work well, over winter my avererage driving temps have been around 70-80deg C, maybe 85 with some vtec'ing, so im happy with it!

Also just last week i picked up a bride (brix) seat for a mear £50! it needed some fixing, and has had some stiching done to one of the sides - but otherwise is perfect! so i made me a seat rail at work using the std civic seat rails, designed it all up on autocad and made it! its amazing the differacne a good seat can make to your driving, i know its not like they "add power" or something silly, but it gives you such a feeling for what the car is doing and thus more confidence!

Well just a quick update for now, ill try to post what goes on a bit more regular, especialy with the show season coming fast!

thanks!
