I'm at HDC Subaru (Howards) on Thursday, most likely all day if anyone lives in the area and is bored. He's doing a full service plus cambelt kit, fixing my temp gauge sensor, stripping and rebuilding my 1 pot rear brakes and replacing brake fluid with some proper millers racing stuff.

I asked him about a full rebuild on the P1. He said with uprated parts to strengthen engine, skimming and reconditioning heads I'd be looking at about £2k + vat. if you can get your hands on the cash and can stretch to it I'd have it strengthened.
