Ok,
So I started with a 36k mile ebay 1.0 CL bad boy:
Then over three years or so added the following:
FK Konigsport Coilovers
A built-on-the-car PPP Stage 3 Subframe
256mm Brakes
Some steel wheels in 14 x 6 flavour with Toyo Proxes T1-R 195/45/14 tyres:
A full body re-spray in the original Pearl Grey (Reflex Auto Designs) including removal of the aerial, rear wiper, side spats and badges. Plus a bit of bumper fettlage:
And next a G40 engine with the following spec:
PPP Chip
PSD 4-Branch manifold and full s/s system.
An R1 Charger with a PSD induction kit.
PSD Toothed belt kit.
BRV Mod.
Then I played about with interiors for a while but bought a pair of these:
And decided in the end to do this:
So that the boys at PPP
www.poloperformanceparts.co.uk could do this:
A bit of matt black paint, some OMP harnesses and a new steering wheel later:
Then some bits of carbon and a Stack Wideband AFR and an old faithful boost gauge:
And this is what I'm left with:
Big thanks to Pete and Andy at PPP for the cage work. The quality of the work and the fit of the cage is amazing (just ask my mate who helped me re-fit the headlining!) and the car feels amazing to drive now. So tight and flat in the twistys. I'd highly recommend their products and fitting services to anyone.
Click here for their website.Some of you may have seen the car in it's previous guise with the burgandy leather, I'm bored of the shows now so I figured fast-road/trackday slag with the ability to still look ok would tick the boxes for me.
Hope you like.
