I just cant honestly see the point ?
Not much will look any different to your 1.4 at a component level.
You're not going to blueprint the engine I'm presuming ? So why not just leave it alone and drive it ?
Buy a car from a scrappy to reduce it to its component parts and attempt to put it...
No need to take it all apart, loosen things, brake stuff, lose important things......
RS's aren't Swiss watches, they're girls cars made of cheese and tinfoil. Badly. They break. When something brakes, squeaks, falls off .. find it and fix or replace it. You'll soon know your way round the...

Give it to Steve@R-Sport.
£50 will get it machine polished and looking SPANKING.
Buy PW, snowfoam lance/liquid, some decent wax (R222, 476S etc) and be done with it.
He did Dan's M3 in April or May last year, and its still looking amazing even though it's not really been cleaned...
On a SRS note for a second here .. bloody good of them to donate all of the funds to charideeeee !! Hope this gets a lot of attention.
On an even more serious note .. we should have a few prizes for people, perhaps £10 for each one (out of the area rep's pocket of course) .. suggestions may...
Night pics + cars...
Needed: Tripod, camera with 'bulb mode', car, remote shutter (or 2sec timer mode), patience.

Yeah .. there's a reason they are cheap.
To infinity and beyoooooond. Hard as granite so will last for ever, long after you've spun off into a tree at 20 mph the first time there's a bit of drizzle in the next town.
Never ever buy cheap (crap) tyres !!

My joining date, you unobservant chocolate flavoured snack !
Some comments/questions etc...
1: Very nice mint tidy fresh looking Ph1.
2: What have you been driving since (checks avatar) Aug 2008 ? I always assumed you probably had a Clio but never had any information to suggest any different, or frankly that you have been riding a pit pony around the...
Put it in M mode (manual) rather than shutter prio.
Bulb mode will only be in full manual as it won't know how long you want to take picture for, so cant adjust aperture etc to suit an (almost) infinite time scale of exposure :evil:
Considered a ph1 ? I know I'm a ph1 fanboy .. but they look better, they are faster, they are more fun to drive, and there's less of them about. They are cheaper to buy, 15" tyres are cheap as chips and better (insert physics lesson here) ... They also look less like 1.2's than ph2's.
All IMO...
