Spotted that one a couple of weeks ago, but only just started seriously looking this week with the intention to buy ASAP.
Guessing from the sound of things I can comofortably go for either a standard 172 or 182 without Cup packages and start modifying fresh by upgrading the suspension.
No doubt I will pay subscription but just bringing myself up to speed.
Haven't got resistance to a sorted track car, however I do want the enjoyment of doing it myself as a project!
Anyone got a link to the Pro's and Con's between the 172 and the 182 apart from the obvious 10bhp!
I am on the same page, just wasn't sure whether a CUP pack was really worth searching for.
The car I purchase is being stripped back, however I just wanted a relatively lower mileage well cared for block to build around.
Within the first month of owning I plan to strip it out, fit two buckets...

Cheers mate, been having a look but after feedback on the suspension setup?
Is the Cup pack suspension better than the aftermarket ones, or after a period of time even if I bought a Cup version would I replace suspension for better handling?
I assume CUP packs between the 182 and 200 are the...
All,
I am currently on the lookout for a 182 Cup, or possibly a 200 Cup to use as a weekend track car.
Having trawled through the forums I am starting to realise the best modifications and the do's and don'ts when modifying.
I want to know whether someone can explain both cup packs, and...
