    Not so epic 1.2 Project

    Lights have come out well mate. The exhaust is a bit overkill though imo

    jamie_trials EViL MK2

    Looks good bud, nice starting point! Sits well on the 1.2s. Do you ever come near Derbyshire? Just a coincidence I read this thread, as I've been scratching my head trying to wire my horn up this morning and getting nowhere!

    TomoTek - 182 Track Build here we come!...

    That interior is absolutely mint! What a great looking 182!

    The Odyssey (Phase 1 172) - By Coops

    Nice work mate, looks a lot cleaner than when I saw it! Never seen those Speedlines before, yours must be the only 1*2 in the country to be running them!

    Nuts, Bolts and rocker cover Cleanup.

    Ah yeah, I'm with you now. Nah, I didn't both painting the lower half. I like the fuel rail cover but can't imagine it making a huge difference to the look if it was removed.

    182: Slight loss of power

    Had this exact problem just the other day as well, about 50mph just a slight hesitation. My first thought was injectors myself. But hasn't done it since touchwood. As @imprezaworks advises, will also monitor the situation and let you know if I find a solution (if needs be).

    Nuts, Bolts and rocker cover Cleanup.

    Fair play. Manifold is just one piece mate. 3 bolts at the front, 2 at the back iirc. I cheated and just painted the engine mount in situ with a brush- again not the neatest job just got to take your time. People say normal paint is fine, but I went with VHT just to be on safe side. And I can...

    Nuts, Bolts and rocker cover Cleanup.

    I changed my spark covers and painted my rockers & inlet just the other day. I sprayed the inlet mani, but paint the rocker in situ mate, just with a brush. You can't remove it as it pins the cams in place. I used high temp brake paint. Not the neatest job in the world but looks far better than...

    James' 172 Cup Project

    Thanks. Not sure to be honest! Would like to polybush some parts in near future, heard it makes a huge difference. Also desperate for an exhaust and induction kit.

    Tim's Trophy - #455

    Beautiful car mate! Ultraleggera's look fantastic but I was a big fan of the gold Turini's as well.

    James' 172 Cup Project

    Yes mate noticed that myself the day after uploading... still great spot, don't know how you noticed that from those photos! Gave the Cup it's first detail yesterday, I'm no professional (not even an enthusiast if I'm honest) but I think it's come out pretty well. Photo's don't really do it...

    Vmaxx springs over-compressing?

    Appreciate your help there matey. Think I'll swap the shocks over first, got a spare set in the garage. See how we go from there! And yeah never planned to contact Vmaxx, can tell just by there website they don't give a s**t about customer service!

    Vmaxx springs over-compressing?

    Well that's frustrating, cause that means it's probably not the super-compressed springs that causing my knocking issue? If that's normal for Vmaxx and you didn't have an issue?

    Vmaxx springs over-compressing?

    Yes it seems that way, I'd give that a go, but unfortunately I haven't got the bottom spring platforms/bushes to seat them on!! Only place I can find them is Kam Racing and they're £25 :confused::confused: I may have sorted some replacement springs for now, otherwise I'll message ya @leeds2592...

    Vmaxx springs over-compressing?

    I've narrowed down my awful knocking noise to my cheapo VMaxx spring compressing too much and hitting themselves over bumps. As you can see just stationary they're far too coiled up? So going over bumps surely they're gonna make a knocking noise I'm experiencing? I've tried reseating...

    James' 172 Cup Project

    Just thought I'd keep this thread updated with a recent photo. Got a few annoying issues appearing as expected with french motors... Firstly an ever-increasing knocking noise/rattle from the rear, had a quick look underneath but no idea what's going wrong. Secondly it started cutting out on...

    Thanks mate, might take you up on that soon enough!

    New owner of a V6.

    What a beautiful car, looks mint after the detail!

    Good spec on that matey, should be killer after your plans are finished!

    Raceface's 182 Track Car

    Nice work man. Love the detail on the inlet mani! Also love the induction kit, need to get one myself after all the good reviews I've heard.
