    New alloys and suspension dilemma

    I've got prolines with 16" standards and never had a problem. I can't see how your tyres would rub on Prolines unless you're running the wrong size wheel/tyre combo. What size tyres you using?

    Ph 1 172 Coventry

    Silver Ph-Quick, Aldermans Green Ind Est (Dutton Rd) 12:20pm. Don't see many Ph1s around Cov, looked like a nice one.

    I laughed so much I nearly shat.

    I quite like the f*cked up green one, sort of like an alternative knackered rat look.

    Storm grey 172/182 nearly finished...

    That's looking like it'll be a right weapon. :evil:

    Road brakes

    Have a word with G172 in the traders section, his prices are good. I got Brembo HCs and Brembo pads from him, good setup for the road. They're meant to be a good OEM replacement, i've got no complaints, they've stopped me from having a few accidents.

    What have you done to your car today ???

    ^^^Yeah, that's not working anymore. :dapprove: Today I put some coolant in it, as it's below minimum.....it's still below minimum, as I only had a quarter of a bottle. :( I topped up the oil as the warning light was on because of the slight sump gasket leak it's got. :( I also did this, the...

    Aftermarket Steering Wheel & MOT

    I've been wondering this since I first heard about the new rules. No-one seems to know if an aftermarket steering wheel will pass, not to mention bucket seats, as the standard seats in mine have curtain airbags. I have no clue if it's worth buying an aftermarket steering wheel or seats.

    Standard or Carbon ?

    Carbon, it looks so much better.

    Rattle can refurb?

    That would push me over the edge tbh, even though I am a cheeky f*cker, no-one wants to hear it said to them in Terry Wogans voice. That sh*t get's in your head. :S

    Well if you're deliberately trying to turn me on that'd certainly do it!!

    Coming on here flaunting your nice paint work...... I'd take a photo of mine but I don't think i'd find a bit without scratches. :dapprove:

    Exhaust choices.

    Just to add my two penneth, i've had a Piper stealth on mine for years and it's a bloody good exhaust tbh, the stainless steel's still shiny and they're very well made. Mines a bit droney at 70 80mph, but from hearing other members exhausts at meets, i've come to the conclusion it's quite...

    Monaco on Eibach pro kits

    I've had prolines on mine for years, great springs. I think they'll sit a bit lower once they settle in, as mine's lower than yours.

    Dead 172 break or fix ??

    If it was my car i'd drop in a new engine, but i've had mine 5 years and i'm quite attached to it. You're going to spend £750 of your own money whatever you do, probably cheaper to drop in a new engine rather than getting another car though.

    Rattle can refurb?

    I'm definitely going to use them, I think it would just be easier and more cost effective in the long run, I just need to source a spare set of wheels to use while they're there. I only have one set of tyres so i'll need wheels that 195/45/16s will fit. I can't remember his real name, but...

    Rattle can refurb?

    Oh right, I didn't know they did repairs aswell, I just thought they just coated them. I may have to pay them a visit and get a quote.

    Silver 172/182 in Coventry, Bell Green Road Near Riley Square

    Have a word with your Dad about the rear lights and the back box, essentially it's his car and policy so it'd really be up to him. Keep building those no claims mate and try not to have an accident if possible, lol ;) it'll get even more expensive if you do. I f*cked up two cars before I got...

    Silver 172/182 in Coventry, Bell Green Road Near Riley Square

    Like you said your looking to f*ck the rear lights off anyway in favour of standards. Is it your car, or are you a named driver on your Dads policy?

    Silver 172/182 in Coventry, Bell Green Road Near Riley Square

    Definitely tell them, even the slightest bump would invalidate your insurance, then it'll be impossible to get insured in the future. I'd ring them and ask how much coilovers would increase your insurance, tbqh with you the aftermarket backbox and Lexus light actually count as modifications...

    Silver 172/182 in Coventry, Bell Green Road Near Riley Square

    I did think 'oooh that looks modified', not keen on the Lexus lights though sorry dude, but that's just my opinion tbh, if you like them then that's all that counts mate. :approve: You can buy a second hand RST for around £80quid, but you'll need to buy an unlock code for it, and the correct...

    Silver 172/182 in Coventry, Bell Green Road Near Riley Square

    Oh right I did see you tbh, I remember the aftermarket exhaust hanging below the bumper, it was this morning wasn't it? I was taking the dog down the park. Yeah I remapped it myself, pretty easy really just an RSTuner box, laptop, and the right map for the car. 20mins from start to finish.

    Rattle can refurb?

    I'm pretty sure i'm going to get them powder coated in Birmingham tbh, I just don't know what to do about the damage to the lips.

    Silver 172/182 in Coventry, Bell Green Road Near Riley Square

    Can't say I did notice sorry, do you have a CS sticker on the back of your car? Those I tend to notice. The car's had a fair bit done to it : Piper stealth cat back, Eibach proline springs, braided steel brake lines, Brembo pads & HC discs, Espace V6 airbox, matched inlets, RSTuner Fastchip...
