man black gold 182s are one of the sexiest cars ever!

Haven't posted on here in ages but thought I would share some details of my car. Used to have a 182 which I loved immensely but it was stuffed in the rear. My goal was to make this handle better than my 182 and to be fair it has taken a while to get there. The balance through the corners now...

You know my mini was the same. Short travel stock dampers which utilized the bumpstops. I have kw coilovers and the increased travel has improved comfort massively. The handling was night and day after this but the trade off was having to still accept some roll. I dialed it out with some...

It's easy to bomb into corners too fast on The road which is why you may think it handles terribely. Slow in fast out is best.

f**k! lol at the way the rider still keeps on going

The stock p zero Neros are much better tyres than toyos in the wet and dry. Your best off burning The toyos. Have fun!

Rear arb sorts all the problems on these. Don't think they have one fitted from stock lol.

I have to say these are stunning little cars. Had a go with one up lakeside the other night, I didn't go for it in first but through second he was on my ass due to my long gearing, but hit into third and it was later on boyo! Are they good in the corners?

reminds me of the R5 GTT and Uno Turbo days.

Very nice car dude. Any coilovers available for these at the moment?

Beautiful.

Nice smooth cars but Defo would have kept the 182 over one of these.

I dont have hotspotting on my 4.3.1 update for iphone 4. Is it down to 02?

wow. i bet throttle response will be razor sharp!

You will need endlinks for proper corner weighting on these. When you lower the mini it loads up the arbs. I have the KW V1 as well and they are pretty awesome, also upgraded the ARB front and rear which has made the car 100% sharper. Only disavantage as it highlights the need for endlinks...

Looking sweet dude. How's it handling compared to the works kit? You going to get adjustable endlinks?

Yeah will be getting 1320 to do it all. They treat your car like gold. I can see why you went back to an RS. As a turn key proposition with excellent fuel economy they are totally unbeatable. It's been a long journey to get mine handling sweet partly because I did so much research on making...

Haha it's set up for the mean streets of London height wise! Speed bumps can kiss my ass. When I first had them installed both front and rear wheels were tucking. Looked ace but even used to scrape the bumper lip on smooth roads lol. Wasn't much fun. It's now more reminiscent of how my 182...

Cheers dude, spent over 1 hr yesterday reading your build thread on your ek9. Nothing short of spectacular, absolutely love it.

Few updates as I haven't been on here in ages. Have to say cs is still the best forum I've come across by far. New mods are KWV1, eibach anti roll bars (make a massive difference), polybushed all around, bbr bonnet scoop, rear lights split and dechromed. Still need to get corner weighting...

Looking sweet dude. Loads of ex clio and meggy owners are onto these coopers now.

when you get the 21.5 home it is more than big enough if you use it for work stuff at a desk. My miss has the 21.5 with upgraded graphics card. Even watching movies its the tits and you can also run a secondary monitor if you really need to do big things. she uses fcp and it is more than...

have you upgraded to os4? think its a scam by apple... allow the os 4 for the 3g as they know the processor can just about hack it, then it will force people to take out the new iphone 4 as it will be so slow rendering it unuseable. i upgraded to iphone 4 today from my 3g, didnt really care for...

think the standard focus rs looks better than that tbh. the way it corners looks pretty damn good. clio sports will always have a special place in my heart. they look unexciting to watch, but when your behind that wheel on a twisty road, thats the only place you will want to be

total turd

beauty.

didnt know this was on. 5 mins up the road from me.

Re: This dont f**k about! - BMW E30 Turbo exactly what I was amazed at. nothing short of mentalist.

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads) ipad is a waste of space if you actually use your brain to think about the purchase. Defo going for the iPhone 4 as my 3G has been an awesome introduction to Apple. The iMac 21.5" I have has also been awesome. If I could use...

amazing work there dude. hats off to you.
