I had a 182, sold it for an R27, just recently got a 182 as a run around so i have both. 197/R27 is imo a much better place to be. 182 feels marginally better low down, but the 197 revs much better and feels more powerful to be honest. The 182 fizzles out a bit really. Both great cars, love...
It does feel like it mate, but u have to go further with because it's a more capable car. My 197 on coilovers is scary howuch grip there is!! My 182 is very good but it's Definatly on the limit much earlier that the mk3's. Was ur 182 modded? Mine doesnt explode into acceleration lol
Not quite finished yet, a few touches to sort out, but its close!! Enjoy!! No power figures yet, when its finished ill post all the details etc up.

Tints are standard.
They come with recaros, cup packs, stickers a plaque and LY if u so desire. Climate, xenons, auto wipers and lights, folding mirrors are options.
I have just put a similar set up on my 182. Got prolines (fantastic spring), rear ABR and 1 degree camber bolts at the front. It feels amazing!!! Doesnt compromise the handling at all, still soaks up bumps etc at high speed and no loss of traction, it still feels like standard just a lot...
Lol cheers mate, prob the only person on here that agrees with me! I don't have to have the stickers but they went on for trax but I like em. They look better on the flesh. Think I saw u around northampton, ur RB got stripes?! Drive past u in my RB 182 a few weeks ago I think!
Cheers for the...
Cheers mate :) If I moved the sticker back it would look a bit naff as the side skirt covers it. But the car is far from oem so I'll leave it where it is lol :p
I dont think they are that bad low down. I own a 182 and an R27, there is a bit more low down in the 182, but the 197 isnt as bad as its made out sometimes. I prefer the power high up in the 197, i think it pulls harder all the way to 7.5, the 182 fizzles off over 6.5 imo.
I do prefer the 197...
