Very much "Under Construction", but will continue until every part you can think of has a comment, however long it takes!
| At last here is the page you need to find those hard to get parts for your TVR M Series/Taimar. Parts are grouped into a logical order, and suppliers are listed where parts are stocked (this will be updated as and when parts availability is known so may be incomplete for a while). Please help me update this list with your parts knowledge...and list is printable for your use. | |||

Not only are there two types of disc caliper fitted to an 'M' but the rear brake cylinders also vary. It appears that the latter 'PB' caliper with metric fittings, is matched to a 0.75 inch cylinder while the earlier version has a 0.7 inch. These are 'american' spec apparently. I have been informed that the units are interchangeable however. Many thanks to Alan Nicholls for this information. |
