Please could someone illustrate the differences between a Type-R and a P1. Not to bothered about aesthetic differences, as these I already know. Just the engine(if there is any), suspension, and drivetrain(P1 has Type-R short ratio gearbox?).

All comments appreciated,

Thank you.

 

P1 doesnt have DCCD or water spray, but does have ABS

P1 has revised front spliter and carbon liped rear spoiler, prodrive seats and suspension better suited to UK roads and ECU map for UK fuel

exhaust has 1 cat

not too sure about cams and block though, pretty sure it's the same

 

the gearing is different on the P1 to the short ratio gearing of the Type R.

I would say more suited to UK road driving - rather than the manic, but rapid acceleration given by the Type R short ratios

 

No 2 pot caliper rears on P1 and I thought they never bothered with a remap and just fitted some broquets instead.

Suspension wise it was replacement springs.

 

Question is, what would you prefer??

 

AND REVALVED SHOX AS WELL IIRC

I'd have the P1 but would still get it remapped by someone such as Bob Rawle

 

i would say test drive both i did and thought a p1 wpould be better to live with day to day the type r felt faster even tho it had the same power
