This is pretty cool! nice one

Loving the plans you've got for the car mate, nothing beats an OEM well kept Cup. You've done exactly what i've just done suspension wise, it's a great setup for the money.

I'm in Tunbridge Wells mate, about an hour away from Kyle. I take it you live pretty closely to him as you're in essex? Just checked Facebook and realised I've met you briefly before at FCS last year. You were parked up next to him weren't you? the car looked epic. Mine was completely standard...

Certainly doesn't look like it's covered over 100k! nice work

That sounds epic mate, good spec. A diff and 4 pots are on my list of things i'd love to do, probably not until next year though :confused:.

Haha cheers man, i've literally just ordered some silvervisions now! Nice car mate, never been on track before so will be good fun, yours looks a little higher spec though. What sort of power/mods do you have?

As long as you're referring to just high boost conversions @davo172 then I agree. @masekwm has the right idea, low boost and more money towards a diff + better brakes will make the car way more enjoyable!

Nice so far mate, getting the 3M kit on the headlights made a huge difference!

Cheers mate, it's always been my intention from day one to keep it looking almost standard Thanks mate, I had the wheels refurbished by Lepsons. They did them in a colour they call 'Bright Sparkle silver' which was their nearest match to the brand new Turini centre caps I showed them. The match...

Cheers mate for the kind words. I quite like the badge on the back, I have no idea if the car came with them on the rear from factory but it looks good in my opinion... I got the shocks from here, 40% off at the moment, all genuine Renault parts and super fast delivery. Not sure on solid top...

Seeing your car nail it around Cadwell makes me think I should have left the Cup N/A. Loving what you've done with this car mate and the spec you've got it to is spot on.

A little update on what has been going on with the car. 1,000 miles since I last posted and the car has never let me down once. Managed to get myself some new genuine Cup shocks all round for just £157 so thought it would be rude not too! Cleaned under the arches whilst I was there. Planning on...

I have the Eibach Pro lines and they were awful up until today. Literally just fitted new genuine Cup shocks all round and suddenly the ride is so much better, far less crashy.

Your car is epic. Nice job on getting it that clean

Just had the ED 230 turbo kit fitted and want to get it on another dyno for the sake of curiosity... count me in!

I've heard about this being an issue. Not that I know of no. Without sounding like an idiot i'm guessing i'd know if they had because of the noise / loss of power?

I've been running the Engine Dynamics low boost kit for 2,000 miles now as my daily and no problems so far. It's running 230bhp and 235lb-ft which is perfect for a daily car, you get a decent amount of power and the reliability too. I guess only time will tell as the miles rack up but 2k in and...

Cheers mate I am, well worth the money. Just been through your project thread and loving what you've done to the 182. It sits so nicely! I think Bilstein's are next on my list now lol

I'm two weeks into having the ED low boost kit fitted now and still finding it amazing. No issues so far and i've given it some more times that I can remember lol. The car made 235lb-ft and 231bhp. No idea what it's as fast as or can keep up with and not too bothered if i'm being honest. Going...

Haha yeah its not so good on damp roads, you can almost get all of the power down. Wouldn't bother in the rain. Roll on summer!

Yeah mate I would, i'm sure they'll be more than happy to help. It might only be 230bhp when compared to a lot of the cars on here running 300+ but it's still seriously good fun and feels exactly like a standard car when you are driving around town or to the shops etc

Why was that mate? did you go out in their 172 ph1 exclusive demo car?

Thanks mate, I certainly am. I got mine from my local Renault dealer and paid around £23 Each. Silly money for what they are.

So the car is now back from Engine Dynamics and wow, what an awesome kit it is. Not many photos of the car since it has been done but here's a few. The car made 231.6 bhp and 235.1 lbft, strong figures that you can really feel in the car. Absolutely loving the noise too. First up, the power...

You've been a lot busier than I thought! It's really coming along nicely now

Fantastic photos, what setup are you using to take them?

Nice car mate. Well done for getting the Cup badges, they're a must and really set the car off.

It is indeed, the subtle mods are always the best and yes I am. Already counting down the days and even 2 weeks seems like a long way away right now, I want it now! Lol

A few small updates on what i've done recently. After changing the plugs and leads I managed to scratch the upper manifold so took it off again and sprayed it again. Here's a few other things: - Removed the fuel rail guard as I don't think it will fit when intercooler pipes go in. - Sprayed...

Glad you're enjoying it mate. Yes mine is a 172 Cup and yes I was. Was it you picking up the silver 182? Looked like a nice car. Does it go just as well as their demo car? If so I'll be more than pleased
