Do both Alex, have a Trophy and a FRS :)

Have you tried looking in the traders section, or even in the group buys? Have a look at what CookSport can offer for you.

If your options are Vmax or Raceland (never heard of either but I get the idea already by the names!) then I'd opt for neither and go with a set of Eibach sport lines instead, maintain a decent level of comfort along with a car that will handle probably better than the bottom line budget coilovers.

I find the OMP bosses, even tho they say 'top' do tend to sit towards 1pm a little.

187K :)

You have me puzzled here now, why would you be trying to push a product forward but be reluctant to give out information on them? the make/strength and ability of a rose joint isn't really worth keeping a secret as these could be sourced elsewhere anyhow, but if I were to be buying a product I'd...

Chip, if you we recall any of the rear beams that Danny B made on the Cossie's, in particular the stage 3 beam as he called it. these suffered cracking on the arms after hardly any use. i know they all didn't fail, but a good few did. Jacko had one fitted, we then went and did a test day at...

I'm having those thoughts, but I hope I am wrong.

Fingers crossed buddy.

Yes I understand that, but as said those reasons are mine. the car isn't a road car so it seems pointless to keep fitting and unfitting a door bar just for the car to go back on to a trailer!

Under the hood? Are you in America? power steering reservoir is just to the side of the suspension turret. as you stand looking into the engine bay, it's the turret to your right, a cream coloured tank with a black cap.

I've gone for the SD half rear cage, my reasons being that the nurburgring is my most favourite track to use whenever possible, and with the 2013 rules changing slightly about cages and door bars restricting access unless you are on a closed trackday, i didn't want the drama of being turned away.

Try filming it while its ticking over, instead of keep revving it so we can have a better chance at heating what it's trying to do. get a fault code reader plugged in, if its an injector it will have a code come up for it.

What was the actual code that the computer gave you?

It may not be a cup, but it could well have the cup packs!

Custom made, something along the lines of Hayward and Scott or Simpson race exhausts. thr quality will be amazing but it will blow your budget to pieces.

What's actually adjustable on them then? is it purely the rose joints where they bolt to the subframe, if so I assume you can adjust the depth to/from the arms where they mount? Surely the only benefit from this is adjustments that can be made for castor?

Jamsport.

Ha ha, no. it drove home when I picked it up, placed in the unit for the work and not seen daylight since! it will take a long time to hit 200k as its only ever going to come out for trackdays.

This is a really lame bump to this thread, but i should really pull my finger out and update it. ill start up loading and taking a few more pics to bring the thread up to speed :)

You can buy it back Dave, but it probably won't be at a price you would be happy with now after the treats its been slowly receiving ;) good to see your going to be back in another tho buddy, and see you at Bedford.

I didn't say you couldn't afford bigger, where have I stated that as a comment at you? your comment about them being pauper spec tickled me, so i referred the comment to myself as my clio is on 15" wheels, so if they are pauper spec i obviously couldn't afford bigger going by your other...

To be honest, I thought the 182 and 182 Cup both shared the same springs, it's just the shock absorber that is valved slightly different.

'Tard, yes clever arnt you. 'tard, looking in a mirror when you wrote that, child!? I didn't skip reading, ive actually quoted what you wrote, or did you forget you wrote that comment. i agree not copying or being a sheep if its not what you want to do, but it doesn't mean it's a pauper spec...

LOL @ 15" Pauper spec. i can't afford bigger so I went for 15", comical!!

Creaking, yes. but they were last used on a stripped out 182 in anger around the ring, so a few creaks and groans were to be expexted, but saying that they have done perfectly. they are now on the Trophy which hasn't been used as yet, I'm tempted to chop the body work strut mounts out and have...

No mate, nobody at AST could help with it atall. i ended up running the top and bottom rubber mounts without the small collar between them. obviously doing this now means that the rubber sections are crushed beyond being usable when you tighten them up but no other way around it. not really...

I have a 182 Cup, and now a Trophy, both used as a track car at various times. both have been shod in 7x15" et43 wheels with no drama atall. even had 4 pots underneath them, still fit lovely :)

Re: Clear the snow off your roof please i actually thought it was a driving offence to leave it on the roof and drive away, as said its a risk to the vehicles behind when it starts to loosen and disslodge itself.

Track worthy is fine, my last ring trip had 2 of the 888's below the wear markers by the time we came home. but the wheels were swapped over back to the 182 wheels with normal tyres for the road miles :)
