Tim The rest I'll do :thumb: |
Well as the nice weather is here :(
My plan for the car is as follows. First and foremost is to sort engine out as first priority so I can put it on the road. Paint, bonnet, splitter, fog covers back to original colour. Refit proper scoop back on. Fit medium rear spoiler. Remover front side tints only. And then the other bits I've collected like bucket seats, Brembos, ARB's etc etc. |
That looks alright apart from the bits you plan on changing, I'd add the Darlek gear nob to that list.
Much better place to put your money too, just take it easy for a while once you get it up and running to get to know the car a little bit as Type R's bite back.:thumb: Mind you with a number plate like that I'm sure you'll be fine. :lol1: |

(Hopefully to a p1 owner with money :D) |
It'll be a quick little car when it's all buttoned up Busta.

Aye, hoping a decent point to point car.

Well slight update but not much.
Thanks to Alan Jeffrey these beauty's turned up. (More to come). Attachment 48580 RCM timing belt kit inc pump RCM 1.1 head gaskets RCM 11mm stud kit Jdm oil filter Heat 7 spark plugs Millers cfs 10/50 Areocatch for bonnet Oil modine I also had a bit of time to put original bonnet vents and scoop back on (much better IMO) Attachment 48581 Attachment 48582 Just need to get bonnet and a couple of other bits painted (but that can wait till after engine build). I also put a mid spoiler on but no photos of that as it needs painting (horrible colour ATM). I also managed to fit swrd 340lph fuel pump, only remembered to take pic after fitted lol Attachment 48583 And this is what I removed, the sock had disintegrated from pump and had to fish it out of the tank. Attachment 48584 That's it for now, but will update as and when. |
GOODIES !!!
Pumps a bit of a state buddy,been in there for a while evidently ! Tim |
Oh yes, love goodies.
Hmm, I'm thinking fuel surge which may have contributed to going pop. |
That looks so much better without the microwave on the bonnet, still prefer the original spoiler though rather than the mid one

I've got another boot lid which I'm going for a smoothed look with a e46 lip on. For this boot eventually I'll get a s202/3 type spoiler |
