15" turinis? Looks great :) Love flame red.

Are the springs seated in the correct position? There is a groove for them to sit in with a stop lip. Rears are separate shock/spring so shouldn't be rubbing on anything. I presume it's fronts you changed?

Nope. Fronts are identical, rears are too. Only difference is the cup ones are slightly stiffer than normal ones and the bolt spacing is different the the 182ff, 182 cups and 182 trophies.

And who is the mysterious new owner?

It's just not me Scott. I tried, but the Jekyll in me wants to play :) Not sure where it'll be a cup or 182 ff as it'll still be used every day so need some creature comforts. I'm also thinking coilovers, 15" wheels, buckets and harnesses, etc plus a few tra k days. Something that me and Emily...

Not a lot has happened with the car. Just been driving it. Get in and go. It's so easy to drive and over the cold days, the heated seats was lovely. Gave the car a thorough clean over the Xmas period. Wheels look like they are new. All is not good though because of 2 things: 1 - A few things...

That picture was taken by me about 4 months after I got it (approx April 2011), when I just had the wheels painted, sportlines and recaros fitted. I sold it it to Arran on 76k IIRC. Steve sold it to Jordan, who I bought it off. I then sold it to Arran, who I believe sold to it hans the bear who...

Good stuff Danny! Ph1's just look so cool :cool: They always come back don't they?!

Could be ice on the roads. Been icy lately. Well, were we are it is. Could be a vast array of things.

Silver always looks fresh and oem :smile: Even better on a silver car!

Tickets just bought for me and the wench!

I had Vmaxx on my old ph1 a year or 2 back and they was bought brand new. Within 2 months/less than 1000 miles, the shocks had leaked/broke. This turned out to be a bad batch from Vmaxx. I'd guess that you have ones from that batch!

Silver ;)

No, I bought a new gasket for the old TB! My symptoms may not be the same as yours as I had a slight air leak which after some investigation turned out to be the gasket. New throttle bodies are about £350! New cables are around £30 from Renault, less for a pattern part.

Not a worn cable? That can cause a sticky throttle on these too. I changed mine and was fine. My idle issue was due to the TB gasket being knackered. Ordered a new one and all was good :)

We shall book up this weekend!

Excellent stuff Rob! It looked great when I last see it/you. Engine bay looks sweet now!

Hero! And team CS heroes too :)

Help split a nice ph1 ;)

Absolutely love it!

Unlucky Dan mate! :( Hopefully you'll get it sorted soon and there's not to much costly damage.

Haha, no worries. Just always handy to know if your ever after body coloured parts or paint match. What's the spec?

It'll be titanium silver if it's a 182. Iceberg only came in ph1 and ph2 172's including some cups. Welcome btw :)

Know any details on the crash/people in the car?

Great minds think alike!

Yeah I like that switch and like you, I think flush would look a lot better.

The RS ones are worth the money over cheaper ones for looks and quality IMO.

Not enough finesse IMO.

@corsarally What's the mileage on it? Also was you at CSS '14?

Haha, it's ok. Few things needing to change. Shocks are fucked and it has apex springs on so I'm changing them for bilsteins and eibach prolines. Inner cv rubber split and a few other niggles that need tackling but all nothing major. It's just very easy driving and nice to have a bit of comfort...
