Started making my final exhaust hanger for my homebrew exhaust system. The exhaust is all fitted to the car now and working just perfectly, but I never got round to making the 3rd rear box hanger.


Bought some 10mm stainless round bar and have now hammered it into the right shape to fit the rubber. Hopefully this weekend I'll get back under the car to measure up, cut & stainless weld it to the bracket.


No pics yet sorry.

Rear brake caliper conversion. New discs and new pads. Getting 2 new front tyres put on tomorrow also, 2 new Goodyear f1's for £180 fitted which is a bit cheaper than what I thought.

the rrp back in the day was £1995
they're still going for that, so as you say, holding onto them is a good option

they do look good in a P1 though if it has the rest of the Prodrive extras, just adds that special touch which most don't have

FULL FAT P1

I had been thinking about adding a spoiler for quite some time and I finally decided to go ahead and order one. I decided to get an OE rear spoiler kit and I'm really liking how it all came together. Here's what I got https://www.subarupartsdeal.com/part...1sag000te.html
