looks great...p1 wheels as well:ok:

I like that.

Good stuff!

selling the blue one then?

already sold .

Very nice, wouldn't mind a 'R' myself if I could find a good one.

Very nice, looks in superb condition. Nice buy :)

White type R who'd have one of them ;)

Cracking stuff, looks to be in super condition, did you take her for a drive? and what did it look like underneath?

Yes took it for a drive very nice to drive but holy batman it can offing shift and the underneath has been fully undersealed ready for winter , MOT got done in September no advisories .

Nice one Scotty :doubleup:

Well it's already started waiting for this to arrive start stocking up on some parts to tidy up the engine bay

It does look very tidy :) Great find Scotty :ok:

Looks lovely mate.
Loving the manifold, hydro dipped?

Yes Locky is doing all the parts I want hydro dipped .

Well got a lot of parts sitting in the house ready to be fitted sent some more parts to Locky a few days ago to get dipped , Just been on the phone to Gary AKA Moley to quote me happy for insurance on the Type r and he did so will sort that out at the end of the month .

Very nice mate...

Should look good going round the Ring next MAY...:doubleup:

Looking forward to that some of the parts were going on the Terzo so doing a bit of recycling so that saved me some money .

That's a pretty clean example dude. Looks ace.

Thanks bud pictures don't do it justice looks way better in the flesh .

A little update well today I got my cooler pipe back from my Terzo and Locky sent me a pic of work in progress just waiting for a few other parts to be done then he will get them sent out to me .

Looking good. Worrying you have the baby powder next to your airfix:whistle:

A little question for Scott AKA SilverSurfer how close are you alloys to the rim of the arches as you are running 8" wide please .

Well not been up to much just looking at new alloys to replace the P1 alloys next year at some point with these little numbers .

I'm thinking of going the gunmetal colour as gold are getting to common and I now have a lot of parts sitting in the house so I will need to up load photos of my parts waiting to be fitted .

A little collection of parts ready to get fitted

bet you cant wait to get them fitted. Nice and shiney:norty:

Yes Tim can't wait already told the :wife: that I'm buying another set of alloys next year before the ring trip :yeah:

Very close on et51 8x18
I loaded up the boot to get as much compression as possible and I managed to get the tyre to grip a piece of thin cardboard between it and the arch.

I aim to do another test soon with the arb disconnected and the springs off to see if it hits the Bumpstop before arch contact.

In Germany in 2013 I did manage to take the laquer off the alloy on the arch but not the paint. So I think I'm in the relms of micron rather than mm.

The revolution millennium are 7.5x18 so fit better and also clear brembo.

Thanks Scott , Revolution stop making 18x7.5 a while ago but they are doing a batch after Christmas 18x7.5 in gold only but I might see if they can do them in gunmetal aswell .

Been looking at a few power upgrades options but need to find out what ecu it is running and what ever standard parts get replaced will be getting stored .

1. 740cc INJECTORS
2. GT SPEC2 unequal headers
3. sc42 billet

Another part to the collection

is that kw suspension underneath?:paranoid:

Looks like it not mine :whistle: just a picture of the FMIC the guy sent me .

Am I going bonkers or not? I thought this car was staying / going standard?
Forgive me if i'm wrong.

Outside staying standard , wheels are getting changed and stored , can't go down to 16"as it's fitted with brembos and as for engine has done a few miles will be looking into getting it rebuilt or replaced when money allows as it's still going strong , upgrading the turbo and injectors as and when see fit , adding a bit of colour to the engine bay and repaint some parts that look tired , as for the FMIC it will be getting used at some point in the future as what ever comes off is getting stored in a shed/garage for safe keeping in containers if I ever decide to sell but majority will be painting inner arches , replacing bushes and refreshing the underneath over time .

Wow 0800 in the morning and just a delivery by parcel force and this was inside the parcel .

Final part of the engine bay for the time being has turned up today a new alternator
http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14...c662cbdcd8.jpg

I was wondering why The JD is full :)

Got it as a present and not had time to sample it yet .

Looks nice, but good luck with fitting it without scratching the powder coat.
They are a tight fit onto the mountings without paint/powder coat !!!!!!
I reckon you'll be sanding it off on the mounting flanges to get it fitted.

I know what you mean Scott I will need to have a good look and the long wait has come away to pick the car up on Monday .:yeah:

The journey begins at 3pm for the long drive to pick up Snow White .

Best of luck hope all goes well :)

Car now picked up looking forward to giving it a wash and start fitting the parts when I get home tomorrow.

:yeah:

No photos at midnight??

Was bloody to cold for that Nick will get some nice night pictures up soon .

Excellent.

Glad it is with you now matey.

Looking forward to watching the progress.

Q1 . What paint to use when painting wiper arms as they need a freshened up
1. Normal rattle cans and etch primer
2. Hammerite smooth
3. Plasti-kote
Need a little help here guys .

I would use satin plastikote. Just give them a quick rough up with fine scotch brite or wet and dry first.

Cheers Scott no primer then ?

Q2. Speedo instrument , the needles you can hardly see in the dark , does anyone know bulb part numbers or what they look like so I can order some new ones .

Got a few bits fitted so far thank god I've got a garage

Well got alternator in today another bit ticked off my list
Ready for fitting
http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15...b3ac3220fd.jpg
Fitted bit of a pain but got it in
http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15...84d4ebebff.jpg
Having a little brake before I attempt to fit the rally flaps .

A little tip.......
Lots of newspaper, masking tape, remove the coil pack and vacum/boost pipes. Ram the newspaper under the inlet to protect from over spray and give it a good flick over with satin red plastikote.
Will look 100% better then a flakey manifold for the price of a can of paint.

Cheers for the tip Scott but already got a inlet to go on .

Bought some poorboys products ready to give it a wash this weekend and changed the front head lights and that's it for the moment will post a pic tomorrow of the front .

coming along nice!

This is what the front end looks like nice and dirty
http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15...ccf6292d93.jpg

Due to weather conditions in Scotland I can't wash my car so I am going for the dirty look and I know you's are not going to like it lol

http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15...3adffd23de.jpg

Looks spot on as it should be.....dirty rally slag

You need to at least rinse the salt off!:polish:

That's what I will be doing at the weekend Dave :polish::polish::polish:

Mine looks similar at the moment so don't worry too much.

This is the kit that I will be trying over the weekend will give my opinion after

Looking good scott. Suprised you have not given the inlet mani a go.. Need to hurry up and pop down so we can fit it.

In time Tyler buying all the parts to go with it before I come down , that's what you are going to do for me while I stand about like a council worker with a brew and watch lol .

Nice :D

sweet looking set of rims that :ok:

I like those :doubleup:

Why is one a different offset to the others ?

Don't worry Scott I have check the inside on the spokes and they are the same offset but might be the way I took the photos .

Just winding you up mate......

:rofl::rofl::rofl: fell for that one .

Coming together very nicely. I've always loved the Revolution/Compomotive six spoke design. Suits the Impreza so well.

Well not much been happening but got a few bits to fit
