There's only one mod (performance/handling wise) that I'd do for a road ph1. Whiteline ARB. More of an improvement than coilovers (bar the expensive brands).
They look very good. Imo, 8k looks a bit too blue (and produces less light). There's a diagram Naith found for re-wiring the for the ph2 lights, it's a 10 min job.
Just don't get a ktec stealth, they don't fit well with a ph1 (it's jacked up as far as it'll go in this pic)
Miss mine hugely...
They are very light (lightest about unless I'm mistaken), and very high quality. You've only got to look at 2nd hand prices to see you won't lose out long term.
The gti180's are really good cars. Small mods transform them, 16" wheels and a shortshifter. Nicer seats than a 1*2, and the interior quality is higher.
Have a drive of both before choosing tbh.
With uprated stuff I've never had brake fade on track, using HC's and ds2500's. For it to happen at road speed, somethings wrong imo. Bleed them, go from there.
