Meh, 6 for the win my friend. Breaks the polish down quicker and better ;)

Only thing i'd have to change is the lamps, for the ones with black surrounds. I'm sriously considering come late spring............ White, Recaros, NO A/C, and not the speedlines. Think i'd stick with the standard 197 cup chassis alloys tbh

yep, needs the black surrounds imo

Milltek i had on my 182 was just right sound wise. Not chavvy rasspy sounding lik the ktec mk2 stealth i had on my cup. Perfect :)

Pure p**n these ones!!!!!! :approve: :approve: Nearly makes me want one!!!!! Indeed. Backwards step!!! Owned i say!!!!

i'd be attacking them with a rattle can lol

Yep, ever seen them touring car onboard cameras, mounted near the wheels? Awesome shots, the tyre quite clearly changes shapes cornering etc

too bling imo

Well i use the PC, (porter cable) as probably most do on here. I tend to use the Intensive polish on the sonus yellow bad, as this has more 'bite' for swirl marks etc. One i've done that, i follow up with Final finish on a sonus white pad. Gives fantastic results on black, which is probably the...

what polisher you using matey? I have the exact combo, and really rate it :)

172 ;) Car looks mint by the way :)

Whats up dude, do you feel my pain lol?!!!

exactly, now black..........................................:eek: That car is stunning!!! Exactly the spec i'd have bar the alloys. Just noticed the centre caps dont match the wheel colour?

Front around 12mm (10mm lower than a cupped 182, which is 3mm lower than an uncupped version) Remember if you were going to fit it, you'd also need new 182 cup/trophy/cup-packed hubs. These have a 60mm boltspacing on the hub, which is different to 172's.

The kits don't come with them, well momo don't, and now appears OMP dont? Best bet is just nip to maplins and get another resistor? About 20p iirc

Some info i posted in here might be of help ;) http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=217556&highlight=airbag+resistor+value

The red one is x 1 resistor and fuse for the airbag. Unfortuantley you need 2!!!! Dont get 2 with a momo boss kit for some reason? The black one i have no idea though?

sorry, you have them in proper connectors? I just doubled the ends over and sat them in the connectors then wound some tape round it (pikey way lol). Hmmm not much else i can think of other than checking pre-tentioner connectors, and seat connectors also.

they bent over properly etc? What about the seat connectors?, it brings on the same fault lights?

Thats the idea, just a light going over, not been done since Aug, as for the FF.............um, its in the shed! (far too cold to venture out now lo!!!l) Would it matter?

Yep. Only silver car i'd have is a phase 2 Vee. Look proper bo. One has turned up at the local Renault dealers MMMmmmmmmm 17k-ness :(

1.6 turb? No thanks! No replacement for displacement ;)

*Thread highjack!! oooh Richy i need some advice!!! I have some carlack 68 paint cleaner. As i'm going over the car with some final finish xmas week, do i really need it? As in should i just was the car etc, then Final Finish with PC, the top off with some collinites?

Just watch you dont get water in the sparkplug holes. I did and it ran like a bag of shite!!!! So if it starts running rough, you now know where to look ;) Looking at these pics makes me miss my Cup even more. Always loved this one :)

I fancy new-ness..... although i keep changing my mind lol. My 182 doesnt feel as 'special' as my 172 Cup did?

I love them.. Always have ever since my go in may. I want a cup come summer :) Back to my cup roots lol

I hear you, i find PC'ing over a day well tiresome tbh. Giving mine a final finish over xmas, topped off with some Collinites :cool:

same as a 182 cup then ;)

ah but even 182 cups have aircon ;) 172's dont, unless a late one as A/C was an option.
