frp036 - very very pic heavy

Postby fergie » Tue Oct 20, 2009 3:35 pm

Not been a a meet in ages due to work and being abroad for a few so i thought i would post this up.

Bought the car when i was 19 last jan upgrading from my ka as i needed ssomething bigger and quicker and the insurance was less than the ka! so the hunt was on to get an frp in scotland.Planning to see v6 frp but sold before i got the chance. ended up seeing frp 36 on pistonheads and went 2 view it only 2 miles down the road from me in paisley. after a deal was done i left with it and have never been unhappy or without a smile in it since!

when i went to see it :D
Image


Enjoyed it for a while but had to get rid of the "lil racer" regy plates! then put on new greenstuff pads and a set of toyo proxie4's on
also changed the hego sensor and ripped off the mid heat shield because it was only held on by 1 bolt and kept falling away.

got it detailed before getting it on the rolling road at ava for the first in the wosrsoc weekender :D
only made 128 bhp due to a gubbed sensor

Image
Image
Image
Image

the next day it was off to kames

Image
Image
Image

ended up changing the maf sensor after that cos it was kangeroring, next was a track day at knockhill in sep:D

Image
Image
Image
Image
Image

got some original wheels for it that needed refurbed:

Image
Image

sold them and tryed some focus rs wheel but didnt like them and sold after 2 weeks:
Image

put it off the road from sep to jan then back on the road in jan and the clutch finally gave up after a week of driving! so back off it went again. since then i have put loads of new bits on and dne a few things such as :
rear discs
rear pads
polly bushed
rear splash shields
abs sensor
abs rings
painted calipers etc
parcially stripped
blue samco hoses
white and chrome detailing underbonnet
full service inc
plugs
oil
all filters
8mm magnecor ht leads
coil pack
rear bearings

probably lots more just cant remember!


friday nite my and a friend stripped out the gear box ready for the lsd and helix clutch and put on the carbon splitter and conversion badges:D cant wait for the bonnet!

Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image


me:D
Image
Image
Image

dropping the box of tomorrow and hopefully will be going with tax and test by end of the week *fingers crossed*


been working on a few other wee bits like a chrome header which needed cutting and tig welded

Image

going to get my spare seats retrimmed with frp036 stiched into them somewhere:D

also refurbing the spare alcons there all stripped down ready to be powder coated white when i get the cash for everything else
half way though it...


in the near future its getting a full weld in rollcage, the refurbed alcons with hispec discs and respray. later in the future would like it to have more power maby turbo with nos, 6 spoke mos, quife sequential box, carbon roof and other pannels and looking into getting custom hubs so i can run puma coilovers :D I will have it my way if i have to beg borrow or steal!!!

any comments welcome if you can understand the english as it is not my strong point!!

may09..................................

been working on the car for a bit recently managed to get the clutch, gear box etc all in with the white alcons :D then mot and tax tomorrow :D woo woo
After getting some trouble with a snapped bleed nipple i changed the bolts to black ones for some contrast with teh white and i think they look amazing!
Should have been finished a few days ago but the bridge pipes kept leaking so swapped for the old ones and a temp copper one until i can get ones from alcon. Will only do this when i refurb the other set as there getting used for a bit first :D got Kames on sunday so trying to use the car as much as i can before then to get used to the clutch.
Will get some pics of them on the car tomorrow but trust me they look stunning!!!

Image

Fitted hispec discs back in august and they looks stunning! would like to get the bells done white when i get some other parts powder coated

Image

I also turned 21 a couple of weeks ago and got a private plate which not sits proudly on 036.

thanks, the callipers have been on a while now and just get a cleaning whenever the wheels are off but they do get minging.

The shell is a friends who is preparing it for his son to do auto testing when he reaches the right age.
