Krissyb's P1 (homebuild hero)
Here we go:
SEPTEMBER 2010:
I decided after 3 years of owning her and building the car completely from an unmodified car to this.
NOVEMBER 2010:
After looking at a few different cars and always having a soft spot for P1's I decided that I was going to start looking for P1's and suddenly the perfect one popped up.
It was a really well looked after P1 WR with loads of goodies ranging with the following.
Prodrive Recaro's
Alcon Calipers
Godspeed 2 Piece Brakes
Prodrive Mats
Prodrive 18inch OZ Wheels
RCM Induction Kit
RCM Turbo Back exhaust
RCM Remap
Walbro 255lph Fuel pump
RCM Cooling Panel
Samco auxillary hoses
Samco Coolant hoses
Samco boost hoses
Defi Oil pressure gauge
Defi Oil temp gauge
Defi Boost Gauge
Defi Controller
Carbon Interior Inserts
Crystal Light pack
Tinted windows

She had 60k on the clock and was immaculate on the outside and drove lovely, I snapped it up there and then and then went about driving her home and giving it some more TLC.
First things first was some cleaning products
After a quick clean up:
Secondly was some RCM bits and bobs and a service kit which included
Silkolene Coolant Pro Cool
Silkolene Oil 10/50 Pro S
STI Oil filter
3 Bond sealent (for when I fit the baffle plate)
RCM Battery Clamp bracket
RCM 1.5 bar Rad cap
RCM Oil filler cap
Piccy of RCM bits fitted while I was replacing a defi sender
December 2010:
Having joined up on here and reading through I decided to have a chat with Keith from scooby projects and discuss some bits I fancied which Included.
Cosworth Baffle Plate
RCM Tubular Un-equal headers
RCM Up-pipe
Keith was uber helpful and a week or so later it all arrived alomg with some Stainless steel engine bay bolts from J-steel and my new private plate.
I also had decided by then that I was going to completely drop everything from the rear end and give her a clean up, so purchased some Superpro rear ennd bushes ( every single bush infact for the rear.)
Roger Clarke Stainless Headers Ceramically Coated
Roger Clarke Up-pipe Ceramically Coated
Private Plate
