mine never missed a beat from 30k to 73k..... it was also driven like i stole it ;)

when you sell, your exhaust has my name on it ;)

I'll fit it no worries....... (off to find me hammer..........)

Who says kidda?! H&R's might be on there way this week ;)

have a little patience......... ;)

Whats wrong with the electrics? I've never had, or heard of anything common?

Its for what it was intended for ;) Aright is it?! I thought there was loads of room behind?!

Minta, i miss the colour :( We shall get some pics up of both when YOU fit me H&R's ;) ;)

Thats how my 182 looks nearly!!! I hope i can achieve something like that!!!! Was that just the PO106FA on its own? How long does it take to get that level of finish?

Cheers!

Cool can't wait! I have the first week off in july so it gives me something to do! Once i have (hopefully!) the desired finish would say EGP top it off?

Cool. I give up trying to correct it by hand, its just too hard going! Is B/G a pretty hard finish? ........ ie as a pc virgin i won't damage the finish as long as i'm careful?! I'm reading the guides on detailing world as we speak ;)

Thread highjack! I have just purchased a PC (couldn't wait lol) I have also bought Menzerna Intensive Polish (PO85RD 3.02) and Menzerna Final Finish PO106FA. Would this be a good combo in your opinion for use on a Black Gold 182 with pretty bad swirling?

bleach ;) Nah something like autoglym extragloss protection is fine. Its a paint sealant thats very durable, and long lasting. I used it my my turinis and they came up fine :)

oooh lets us know what you think of the miltek, be looking for something for mine after the H&R's :)

what suspension is that on? looks well :)

just needs a wee boot spoiler done ;)

sorry i meant the bit about you getting rid :o

thought you've just had this rebuilt?!

looking around mine...... 182 cupped, the hubs are different, wishbones, suspension (including springs) wheels and driveshafts are all 'marked' with a purple pen. I would imagine these are the different parts over a standard 182.

Ave it! fred loves the grinder too ;) Typically on arches......

Yeah dont under sell it. 8k starting price, seehow it goes. Peeps on here think they can only sell on here and piston heads..... look in the trader local to you. Thats what i do, a lot of people dont like traveling too far to buy a car. I will only ever travel up to an hour max

very!

They are very close. My 182 might have just shaded it, but people on here think the gap between the two is massive. Its not :)

Shims were removed. On my old cup we had to remove about 2mm off each end as they wouldnt fit even without the shims. With these new ones i had fitted to my 182 at the weekend they fit fine untill it was time to bolt up the caliper housing. Piston wound fully back, be we couldn't get the housing...

Nah. They'll be pretty even tbh. But people on here think they are ALOT slower than the 172/182 versions. They arent!

They are, we've had them side by side up to 100. Its not hard to believe :S . Stop living in the past.

f**k me. Had a set fitted to mine at the weekend, had to grind some off the side of the pad as the caliper wouldn't fit over them to bolt up!!!. Shocking for the price of them. The tollerence on them is way out! The brakes even binded slightly when fitted, due to how much compound is fitted to...

Yeah you'll need a 5 litre drum, and a 1 litre to top it up.

See i'm not so sure. The power delivery is smoother in the 197, hense why it doesn't 'feel' as quick. The 172's feel brutish as they are pretty unrefined etc. On a track standard v's standard will suprise a few doubters. ;)
