Do you have to be a Fotki member to get the original size pics? Quality pics of the track time, that was maybe the best corner for maximum body-rollage, I took it in 2nd :)
If yours was the blue 182 parked next to that lil plane I have some of mine and yours that I will upload...
Mines that red 172 with 182 cup alloys and the pink tracktime slip on the rear passenger side quarter below my rally style name sticker things!
If youve got a vid of mine Id greatly appreciate it!

If you are aiming for 200bhp then I will say what many others will say,"You get what you pay for", and you wont break the 200bhp barrier without spending some serious dosh. But for a start an ITG Maxogen and de-cat pipe would probably be your best starting points.
Heater matrix/blocked pipes, make sure the car produces HOT air after several minutes of running, mine only produced slightly warm air after about twenty minutes, meaning that keeping warm in the winter required several layers of clothing, which made it difficult to drive.....:cry::p
The missus has just textd me and said that outside the student union in Leicester a bus has hit a Fiesta and the driver of the Fez is being cut out of her seat, blood everywhere, it sounds gross.
Eh? What you on about lad? Whos lying.!?!
As far as I know everyone in the original group buy but Rick has had them fitted, although saying I only base that on the fact Ive not seen a post by Rick about them being fitted yet....
Thanks thou, to everyone for making it a successful group buy...
I converted my mate with the clay bar wonders a couple of days ago, I cannot believe the difference it made on my own car and its only a few years old.
Ha ha you joker, yeah I did lower it, Ive got scrubbage on the right hand side of the car, mainly the front, when I take a fast sharp corner, gonna have to do some tweaking methinks.
Dunno mate, just took them out and pissed about with them for a bit! They are about halfway up on the shocks and the spring adjuster things on the back.
Spotted in the afternoon today near the Tigers ground in Leicester and I followed you all the way up to Narboro Rd, you waved as I did! Lovely looking motor in the flesh, dont like them in pictures but I soon change my mind when I see one...
Me and me mate did them ourselves, took ages but saved a bit of dough and learnt a few things. They arent quite set up properly and I need my camber/traciking doing but hey.
Nik, yup, we do have the best colour :devilish:

And Jilly, dont you...
After we kinda decked it I decided to leave them off for more of a sl*g look, will put them back on soon Im sure, have 182 wheels for FCS anyway, but I think around the track I will take those centre caps off too!
Cheers for the comments guys, hope you lot dont mind some more pics!! Never really had a chance to take any decent pics in blinding sunlight!
