you don't want to sand too much in a concentrated area because you'll end up with big dips, i'd get a bit of stopper/filler in them

:o of course he is :race:

Welcome to CS and nice car. :D Looking forward to seeing some more of this yellow detailing, I'm going down the orange/black route with my inferno. I like that smiley too, shame the wheel is on the wrong side though :rasp:

^what JCC said

What wretched luck :(

Oof! Some say the Devil himself owns a fleet of these! :evil:

I spotted this one at Lyme Green Business Park today!

:headno: what a waste

I got mine done in Jan on 36k and 5 years old exactly. Northwest Performance about £460 with a service, can't go wrong. Do it. To JS_182, that's if Ryan hasn't PM'd you already! ;)

Still not too loud with a decat either :)

ah the fabled coolant temp sensor :rolleyes:

personally i'd go for a ph1 though, i never used to like the look of them but they've grown on me hugely, especially after seeing some of the gorgeous examples from members on here. cable throttle responsiveness and a simpler, cheaper itb conversion!

iirc it's around that much (give or take) lighter than the non-cup ph2 172

What gets me is, that car was once probably a decent little runaround as standard. Then the owner at the time thought hmmm I have a plan. Wasted a lot of time and money, and paint and filler. Then once it looked like this, stood back and thought... "My life is complete..."

Lol yeah with the steering wheel, the height wasn't an issue at first though because I clambered all the way down from a C2 VTS!

That's why I'd love a set because they look the part and as you say, very OEM. There's looking round for other maybe lower sets that look almost as good or I'd consider a retrim if I kept the car long enough, with some nice proper leather and orange stitching. I saw a thread from a member on...

Wow I never checked back on this thread! EllisC - Prenton, you? Jamie - I want Trophy Recaros! Thanks for the welcomes :) So far I have... Had my belts done with a full service at NWP Got a Scorpion RS192 with NWP decat (was gonna be a Yozza but I chose this instead and I still...

I've been banging on about getting one of these for ages. But at 22 with 1 year's NCB, I'm bursting my wallet insuring my 182! I'll be bald my the time I can insure a 20VT :o

i'm in prenton, you live near harrison drive? yeah probably was me, my dad lives over that way

Gutted, it's really awful to see it in such a state. RB's much better than silver though, good choice and hope you're feeling better :approve:

Looks the dog's by the way :)

Where do you get the stickers from? I take it they went on before lacquering?

Very nice. You had a black C2 (Code was it?) when I had my black VTS and now you've got this! You are a wise man. Can't wait to get mine lowered!

You flashed me in my inferno and I was slow to react! So I flicked my hazards in case you checked your rear-view!

Strange moisture around the aforementioned buttons. Wipes away temporarily with a damp cloth but it keeps returning :S Anyone else seen or had this?

That'll be your bigger splitter then? :rasp:

Looks good! Jenic I hope you mean rubbing of the wheels in the arches... I'd guess not by looking at it The car I mean!

Yeah I check regularly. Been fine every time

Strange that because I got 2 new Michelins on the front when I got the car in November, no uneven wear and still a healthy amount of tread!

Yes I have this too! Well worded, kind of like slow turning on ice, when there's none there?!
