    Niall's BG 182

    Cheers! I prefer the grey ones personally, then again I am the guy who prefers the standard RS badges too so haha. Cheers :wink: On the power front, will probably be going for some 197 cams, ported inlets etc next year, should hopefully see mid 190s and 170ft-lbs then, heard good things from...

    Niall's BG 182

    Cheers mate! Definitely agree, plus the finish of these wheels with all the flake in the paint as you can see in the photos is amazing, look stunning when clean, so glossy. Yeah sunstrip is perfect, we will see what it’s like once the buckets are in but I think it should still be the right size...

    Gaz or BC coilovers

    Also worth noting. Make sure you're 100% on the spring rate before you order. The valving is done to match the spring rates and so you can't change the springs if you decide you want stiffer without changing the valving.

    Gaz or BC coilovers

    Definitely go BC Mounts. Can't see a reason why not, same as the AST and KAM ones. Only £66 as an option too. Here's mine when they were first fitted (ignore where they are camber/caster wise, since been changed). BG 182 by Niall97, on Flickr

    What Stalk Adapter? Update List

    Bit of a bump because I still haven't sorted this out. Anyone know?

    Gaz or BC coilovers

    Can't comment on the Gaz ones. I bought the BCs (DR version, digressive valves for better ride and performance) because of my fast road/track setup. B14s were too soft for my needs and aren't damping adjustable (adjustability a big point of coilovers in the first place), and then I could still...

    Ps3’s‘Not As Good As The Hype?’

    Pressures too as people have said above. Had some new AD08Rs on mine the other week, and at first I was getting a bit of understeer, went and checked pressures and they were at 38psi. Put them down to factory spec and the understeer disappeared.

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Nope, previous owner must have turned it off because it had a different decatted exhaust when I bought it anyway.

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Mine is non-res with decat. It is loud, but sounds epic!

    BG 182

    Yep! ACF-50 on mine as recommended by Kam. Great stuff, true test was my Whiteline as they always rust to f**k, and mine is still nice and silver.

    Arctic Blue 182 tower by AA Van - M62 Towards Manchester

    Haha! It was me two weeks ago as well, although the AA guy said mine was too low to get on the thing to be towed by the van (probably lying to save himself the job) so it was another wait for a bloody truck lol.

    Was going to Bury from the Liverpool end of the 62, so didn't go that far up. Catch you soon though!

    Arctic Blue 182 tower by AA Van - M62 Towards Manchester

    About 6:30 ish in the inside lane being towed by one of the AA vans. Bad times.

    Favourite and worst upgrades??

    Biggest difference of my mods (including coilovers) was the Whiteline RARB. It's transformed the handling on the limit, when it'd normally be understeering the car now digs in and the rear starts to rotate even when on the throttle. Next to no understeer, it's hilarious!

    Ford Focus RS : day 136 : The stop-start system...useless?

    Really from the information you gave about the saving you actually make, stop-start is utterly pointless for the consumer. But nonetheless it's pretty inoffensive so I wouldn't care if my car had it.

    Dat Lease Life - 2017 Golf GTI.

    Love that colour! Can't be many about?

    Looking good! Needs some plain plates next, will look so clean then.

    Polarised wheel bolts

    Couldn't you use a wheel sealant on the heads of them and just keep on top of it?

    Bent flange

    Do you not need some sort of flex though? What with the springs of the fitting kit being missing in a V band?

    Coilover Spring Rates (Fast Road/Track)

    Going to be stiff that then, then again might not be too bad when they're set to soft. But I can't comment on how soft ASTs are on the road damping wise.

    I've done a lot of man maths recently 😂

    Niall's BG 182

    I don't know exactly because I haven't timed as such, at a guess I'd say 2/3 seconds, too many variables from last time though, but it felt a million miles better. If not for times it's just more fun, way more confidence in it because it feels more planted and stuff. Really does depend if you...

    What Engine oil/plugs to use

    I use the Elf Evolution 900 SXR 5W-40 (the standard oil for the car), as said above it's actually quite cheap. As for box oil, there is the standard Elf NFJ 75W-80. You can use the Redline stuff if you do a lot of track work etc or don't want to change it as frequently.

    Niall's BG 182

    Yep! 30 settings. This time on track I just ran them on full hard because the surface is smooth and I'm running R888s so you can run it harder, in retrospect I should maybe have played around a bit more but the car felt great like that and I was too busy enjoying it to come in and start changing...

    Niall's BG 182

    Cheers mate! I'm actually in Leeds as we speak haha. Definitely have to get photos of the two together. Yeah I've been thinking that for a while, but I don't want full on LED because they can look a bit chavtastic, want something quite dim and discreet, nothing blue, something the same colour...

    It's only taken 12 months.....

    Nurburgring just seems like a major ball ache. A simple mechanical failure can land you with a huge debt. I'll go one day and do one lap to get a photo on the Carousell then f**k off and get a beer and watch everyone else.
