bit of an up date on the car i have just got my hands on a mint flock dash board so will post some pics of that and fitting soon

i also fitted a set of carbon mirrors and have just put money down on a new newtronic dccd controller , i will be getting it after Christmas and then the task of fitting it

also fitted the anti lag wire with a toggle on/off switch by hand brake and also now fitted air temp sensor for the simtek so will get some pics of that too

and get pics of the the new pipe work for air filter as the silicone one was sucking shut also modified my oil catch tank and drilled hole for breather and changed pipes to 15mm inlet

and almost forgot when dash is out i will be trimming some panels under dash to match

 

pic's of carbon mirrors fitted



anti lag switch fitted by handbrake with on / off toggle



pic's of the hard pipe i had to make up as the silicone one was sucking shut but think it turned out ok





and a pic of the oil catch tank that i modified to take two inlets instead of just one 15 mm and made a breather at the top



and a quick pic of the dash before i take it out to fit my flocked dash and will also be retrimming some trim if i have time

sorry if it's in to much detail as i just copy and pasted it from my full spec list i have

 

got to trim some panels and seats to match si

cheers fella

 

you will never stop, lol, ever, hence its a stunning car, pictures dont do it justice

 

cheers mate an d hope everything is ok with yours

bit of an up date

dash in and most fittings are back on but not all as i need to fit dccd

the center console had screw marks on the side so instead of getting a new one i recovered it in suede and done some stitching in blue to match the trim also cut the *** lighter and *** tray out and cut a panel out of some carbon i had left in the garage ready to fit the dccd screen and thumb wheel

not best pics as the first two make the dash look charcoal and different colour to the panel i trimmed





this last pic shows the true colour and match to dash which is not far off

 

looking good lee, loving the suede touch.

 

Nice spec Lee

Do you plan to track and sprint it?

 

If you dont mind me asking, where did you get your gear lever surround ( the part that clamps the leather gaiter to the centre console)? As in the pic you have with your anti lag switch.

 

this is looking great wish i had the knowledge 2 do an engine at that spec good work

 

Flocking hell Lee is there no part of this car thats not been modded

Nice work fella

 

don't know how but it keeps getting better!!!

 

Nice job again Lee, are your never satisfied?

You should draw quite a crowd at PCAD in April.

 

Hello mate, Im new on here and i have a 2000 standard P1 and i had a little accident last nyt, i have seen the pics of your front bumper and its the same so was just wondering where you got it from.....? would be much help. look forward to hearing from you. thanks

 

scoobyworld.com

its a standard 99 model bumper with sebion p1 carbon splitter

cheers mate

 

cheers fella

im tring my best to find things to do kev

thanks mate

been doing a bit tonight and removed my apexi turbo timer ready to sell on.

the carbon panel i rigged up never went to plan as when i made the hole for the dccd controler it made the gel coat look rough on the edges and slight gaps so ended up trimming it with the suede and looks great i must say so will get pics up soon as plus i will also be giving my back shelf the suede make over

 

i might try a track day and maybe something like run it up the strip at pod but we will see

 

I'll keep an eye on your progress on the strip
