Lets see your "One off" modifications!
 
I'm now bored with all the usual mods that everyone does, so lets see some one offs. Anything that you cant buy in the shops/on the net.

Here is one of mine. Commander in a dash mount.

Excellent.
Like the FC in the dash (if you have the face lift) and that TMIC bracket is great!
Novel thread, wish i could contribute!

Intresting...does this work well?

Silver Scooby Sport 01 May 2006 04:42 PM

Mark your putting all of us to shame :o what an array of gadgetry :cool:


Right not quite on such a grand scale but here I go,


Firstly SECS monitor with Knocklink built in...

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v11/Simon/SECS001.jpg

Now an off the car mod ;)

Ever noticed how much a pain it is to jack the car up with a trolly jack, well ended up modding the jack so there is a rubber coated lump of ally on the end with a groove cut into it ;) just allows the sill jacking points to sit in it nicely.

How's that :D

p1mark 01 May 2006 04:46 PM

The knocklink in the secs monitor looks superb Simon!:cool:

Im liking the trolley jack mod BUT its still not clever IMHO doing it on the chassis rails with a trolley jack. Just put it on the sump to lift both fronts up, or the rear diff to do the rears.

I've got an awkard driveway that would make me very nervous of jacking the car up like that Mark... but yes I do see your point and always keep a very close eye on the rails when I lift it.

my own little spoiler lifters... made the world of difference on the wing :)

Lifting it on the sump... OUCH!!

I added another little one off last night! Bit of OTT bling never hurt anyone:lol1:

Over on the P1woc, one of the guys organises a group buy for limited edition plaques (unlike RB5/WR1 the P1 does not have a factory fitted one)

Normal place for fitment is in the centre console tray, but i have stuck one on a polished stainless plate and mounted it at the rear of the engine bay. obviously only works with a FMIC.

All very, very cool! Keep them coming!

MickWrx 02 May 2006 10:26 AM

Si, you an engineer mate, like the jack idea,

frayz 02 May 2006 11:14 AM

P1 Mark,

Your mods are stunning mate, My favorite gas to be the battery cover!!

Love stuff like that because it looks better than factory :d

Great work mate, keep it up. Shame you dont make more of that stuff, id buy some :D

I'm not Mick but a mate in work is, he likes my interesting projects it gives him something to think about for a change, we normally throw a few ideas in the pot between us then I go off and see what parts I can find about the place ;) :D

SirFozzalot 02 May 2006 12:23 PM

Some great stuff here! :notworthy

I reckon there would be quite a few people interested!

Frayz/Sir Fozzalot - Thank you very much for the nice comments.:)

Best get in the que;)

I normally make a couple of most things if i have time, but its for mates really. its not my full time employment so i dont need to make a living out of it so would rather keep it as a hobby IYSWIM

Obviously i am an engineer, and lucky enough to have access to kit and materials to make anything i want to really, but im sure you will understand its best not to take the pi$$ with these matters!

Obviously things like the battery covers and reservoir caps i could make a lot of money on but its not worth the risk:thumb:

T5OLF 02 May 2006 04:47 PM

Bought 3 back boxs that were the wrong size/model so in the end made i "made it av it". Not sure if made any difference but power is up from 264 to 284 with this mod and a K&N Induction kit rather than panel filter and a unduction pipe.

I think Mark and Andy are the winning duo so far. Like the stencil for the STI logo. Have you thought about making some and selling them on?

fatmanscooby 02 May 2006 05:53 PM

Mark thats very nice m8 looking forward to seeing it and pinching some ideas this Year;)
Heres my input to the thread.
