I'm interested if people are still up for the group buy.
Anyone got any samples of the different colour options? A pdf or somethin?
RallyXmad, what will the Cup172 look like and where will it be on the seat? If its just in some shinidey font all the same, I can see it looking a bit cheap.
Came up against an ST yesterday. I came off the roundabout behind it and was pulling on him a fair bit. I was having to hold the revs down - whether they were really going for it or got a change wrong I dont know. Unfortunately we both got stuck behind another car and that was the end of that.
Lucky barsteward.
I got pulled a couple of weeks ago - 3points and £60 fine. The pol didn't even give me a chance.
By the way, will I need to declare the points with the insurance as soon as theyre put on my license or do I leave it till renewal?
I really want to like it, but I cant.
The shape of the car is just too bumpy and corsa-ish. Interior is awful (appart from the recaro's!) prefer the 172cup interior tbh. Black speedline/brembo combo looks smart but centre caps dont match - whats that all about? Not a big fan of the new side...
Cheers for the pics. Looks about standard to me at the moment but as you say, they'll settle a bit hopefully. The different between the drop on a FF to a cup is crazy.
Springs came today courtesy of 'DH182'. So I'll be fitting tomorrow all being well. Might be a stupid question but there isn't...
Have some Sportlines on the way and was just wondering if anyone had pics of their cup on sportlines?
How much does it actually lower the car front/back? Has anyone measured?
Cheers
All those spots in cram and you didnt even see me, nor did I see any of them!
The red 197 lives down the road from me.
Never seen a vee around here or an inferno 182. Seen the same trophy a couple of times though.
I looked at a cup with white powder coated wheels when buying my car. Wasn't a big fan to be honest - it looked a bit chav'y. Ended up buying one with silver wheels and refurbing them in anthracite.
Cheers.
Can't find any recaro sub frames on their site. Want to use the back seats still if possible so I'll be needing tilting ones will i not? What about side mounts?
Also, would it be alright to still use these with standard seat belts?
Apologies for the newbie questions
Hmm I was about to purchase some gsd3's but you've kinda put me off now. Need some that are good for the wintery conditons. Got kumho's on atm and they dont seem to like the rain. Any others you'd recommend? What about rainsports?
Sorry for the hijack.
Cheers chaps.
Definately need a cup splitter but the fact that they're so ridiculously priced is making it hard for me to part with the cash.
I'm from cramlington. Been up your way today actually on a little drive. Some nice roads, just a shame about the shat weather.
Good spot. Yes its an old mini cooper. Needs jump starting everytime you want to drive it lol
It's a cup! There were a hundred or so with climate control as an option made at end of production
