A-mazing. I cannot wait to see this going back together.

Cool choice.

Loving your friends z3, immense. Interesting wheel choice, look forward to seeing how they look.

That looks like a stunning base, good luck on finding a clueless seller too. If I ever bought a 182 it'd be this colour. Get some ITB's so it feels like a real car (ph1)

Looks lovely this, where did the DISA repair kit come from if you don't mind me asking? Tom was telling me it was a nice kit. Keen to get one myself tbh.

Hi, use this. http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Wheel-Offset-Calculator Then decide for yourself with regards to how far it'll stick out.

Yeah I loved my 3 series coupe but it was just too slow. Shame I can't persuade you to get rid of the exhaust, although the z4 boys kill for a quad system!!! The zed is a great compromise between performance and luxury, a blend of an mx5 and a 3 series really. Keep the updates coming...

That's fair enough mate, if you're not exactly taking it mega seriously then it's not the end of the world. I can get on with all the other bits to some degree, but the exhaust is just NOT cool. You could repair and wrap with carbon wrap? :D

Re: Grey With Trinkets, Russ' 29th RS Clio It needs red wheels and ph2 side strips. They used to be red Rhys, the wheels were the car's soul. Mike changed them and it broke, no coincidence.

I still just cannot get on with that exhaust, if you had it removed would you have to have the bottom spoiler on the rear bumper changed too? Do you definitely not fancy silver wheels? It'd freshen things up

I love you Mike. I think when I get rid of the zed I'll be like you and just buy tonnes of Clio's :D Love the plans too, sounds perfect.

It says replica in the title now.. I'll look into changing the in thread content.

For sale thread is fixed, don't worry chaps.

It's generally always about a year apart, 12/13 months or so, so 12 months from the release date of the 5 would be a safe guess.

I wish I had some idea what you were talking about? Get your cliosports done? Is this some new kids terminology?

Shame you were missing the black ph1, would have made for some cracking photos otherwise. Looks a good meet though, even if you were all just standing there speaking in some silly accent none of you can really understand.

Cracking work so far, keep us updated.

It's back? Mental! I remember reading about this car and your painting many years ago, good times. Keep the updates coming.

Welcome to the club, few things to help you out. You want a skoda splitter, they're a 10th of the price of the Cio item and a will bend, not snap. Part number is easily available if you search. Wheels, there's a recent thread in which Daniel recommends someone really good in bristol, why not...

If that laptop has HDMI out, use HDMI. It'll transfer sound and video and do so in proper digital format.

Fair point, does it feel a bit soft and lazy?? Or are you quite liking the added refinement?

Liked these two:

This looks mint, wrong silver though. Quick refurb on the wheel, some new style mats, get those wheel weights off and it'd be getting there.

LOL! Dan I can't believe you've gone over to the darkside, any reason you've moved away from the mk2's? I thought you'd never go mk3 as you're such a mk1 man that even a ph2 must have seemed a compromise.

Mergerrrrr

f**k about that's cheap, proper bargain there. Best colour for the 182 too IMO.

Bet he still spends less than you did on getting that clio up to scratch :lolup: ;)

You know my comment was made in jest you sensitive git. As for waiting to post pictures? Bugger off! It's awesome to see things right from the start.

Is the old engine worth nothing in bits???? At least try and reclaim a bit there. Sad to hear though, what was up with it in the end? You sounded so positive. Just read back, you're selling stuff???? Don't do it. Just be patient, save up the grand. Why get rid of things you'll only have to buy...
