Yeh they do, learn something new everyday!

Tyres replaced this morning with some new Toyo T1Rs and the car handles much better, can still tell it's a bit shaky due to the failed rear shock absorbers but Konigsports should be here by Wednesday fingers crossed. Also bought a short ariel to tidy it up a tad. Lynden

You were parked in traffic coming away from Macclesfield, think you saw me, I was in the liquid yellow 182 driving towards Macc.

Cheers! And yeh the Audi is gone, luckily the company I work for does all of Audi marketing do managed to pull a few strings and pay a small fee to hand it back which is good.

how do you know it's from Essex? these turned up yesterday :cool: Brembo HC front disks, genuine Renault rear disks and bearings and genuine Renault front and rear pads. New Toyo T1Rs being fitted all round this morning and brakes being fitted tomorrow, coilovers should be here...

Didn't think of that! its late and im tiered haha Tyres are going from budgets to T1Rs on saturday as well now

yeh i was looking at these but what size do i need or have you got a link for one?

sorry pictures are a bit big, no idea how to resize them

So picked the 182 up on Saturday from Cardiff and drove it back, really fell in love with the car on the way back, really smooth to drive and extremely comfy on the motorway, on cruise control at about 65-70mph all the way and averaged 41mpg which is brilliant for the engine size and really...

Silver visions also arrived today.

Ordered the Konigsports from Venom Motorsport and should be here next week.

Altrincham Tesco, parked behind you! Seats look really smart! Lynden

Yeh mainlyt road use and not bothered about going low, just want it to be planted and not so crashy maybe 1 or 2 track days a year

I'm not going to CSS as I'm on holiday that week, I need them by August 25th for it's MOT so need to make my mind up soon to be honest....

So the Gaz coilovers on my 182 are a bit dead so looking at replacing them, just wondering which to get? I've narrowed it down to either Konigsports or SPAX from 519 on here, just wondering what people on here would go for? I do road driving with maybe 1 or 2 track days a year, I don't want to...

LoL no its a good car just needs tweaking :)

speaing to Danny about some SPAX ones, think they are the way to go with it

are they decent?

sweet, will ring them in the morning and ask a few question but the amount of rust on them makes me think i should replace them, what would you guys do?

lol going to ring Gaz Shocks in the morning and see how much to refurb them, how hard are they to get off them car?

New coil overs I think!

Also the one covered in oil/black one is much shorter than the yellow one, is this due to the lack of oil in it?

Thanks, will give them a clean and look again but one must be leaking to be covered in oil, are they worth getting sealed back up or better off selling them and getting standard cup suspension and eibach springs? What did you have on your 182 Christopher, yours looked really smart.

So got my 182 few days ago and was told it is on GAZ coilovers, looked underneath the rear of the car and the shocks are different on each side :s On the right the shock is black with a yellow spring And on the left is this shock, yellow with black spring, anyone confirm that these are...

cheers mate. Bought Brembo front disks, genuine 182 front brake pads, genuine rear disks and pads as well. Hoping they all turn up this week so I can get them all fitted. Lynden

Hi Had a mate of mine look at the car today and noticed it could do with the rear disks being replaced along with the wheel bearings (that's what the whirring noise is over 70mph). Just wondering what you guys recommend? I've seen these on the K Tec site but i have also found them on Ebay so...

Cool! Know anything about it? And I wont be changing them (if I change them) for a while

Yeh the carbon looks cool, just ordered my steering wheel thumb grips this morning from streamline and very very tempted to buy carbon diamonds :s

The wheels are a bit darker than abthracite but they look sweet

Thanks dude :-) yeh I like the wing mirrors, nice subtle mod! The shocks say 'Gaz' on them, are these decent coilovers to have?
