It's ok when you're not paying for it....

When I took my brabus roadster in, mercedes gave me an A160. Now that is the worst car ever made. It actually seems like mercedes went out of their way to make it bad. 1.4, automatic. So slow it was dangerous and only returned 27mpg. Absolutely apalling.

Have you tried pressing and holding it?

EBC are shite, yes. It's only the blue stuff that are any good, but theyre not suitable for road.

Post a link mate.

You've just answered both of your own questions. Ds2500 fronts Standard rears.

This was discussed a few weeks back.... The cylinder wall lining is too thin to make it viable and worthwhile.

What car do you actually own?

BILSTEIN If you can stretch your budget to £704.....

Shows how old this is!

What a plate!

^^^ that must be with custom springs. Got looooows.

Yeah, you'll just have to keep an eye out for them really. They pop up pretty often.

Won't look any different to any other coilovers mate. Just have a look at any phase2 on standard wheels and coilies.

Get some oz f1's fo' sho' :)

They're going to need to be a bright colour IMO. Black will make them look even smaller.

15's is brave on a mk3 mate.... Is it going super low?

Not too much of an issue if it's rammed with bikers... There's always a lot of cars there too. I doubt a midweek meet will suit too many people, although it makes no odds to me.

Whilst on the subject of plates. Is it hugely childish that I want to buy a turbo 172 cup and have the plate f4rt cup??

As long as you're moving, you won't have any trouble at all with the steering being heavy. Parking might be interesting, but you'd just learn to compensate. My 306 didn't have PAS and it was absolutely fine.

Did you want carbon ones? Or black? Colour coded?

My wheels came with red o.z racing stickers, but being as I have nothing else red on my car, they'll look horribly out of place. Does anybody know where I can buy some/get some custom made?

Cups don't come with a spare, in fact I'm not sure any 172's did? But the crappy wheel from the breakers isn't a bad idea.... I could test the colour at least!

The sport ones are pretty shoddy in all honesty.

They look pretty nice at standard height, really very good indeed with it lower.

If it's for track only, then yes. Definitely. Better steering feel, lighter and losing the pump also frees up some power (~ 6-7hp iirc)

I really liked the look of mine on sportlines before I switched to 15's. I'd go for sportlines and whiteline over el cheapo coilovers.

Don't really know... Lol. OP, what date where you thinking?

The brembo ones are popular because they're as good as anything else and good value. I bought mintex drilled disks because they're pretty /raving homo.
