To answer your questions, the wheels will need to be the correct fitment for your car, you can't say "new alloys won't include tyres" as unless you buy alloys that take the exact same size tyres (slim chance) then you'll need tyres too. As for insurance, the policy holder will have to declare...

Didn't fancy posting in "Suspension, Brakes, WHEELS and Tyres" then?

Re: Djw Designs dedicated track toy project Oh fair play, that's OK then as it seems a shame to kill a black one for no reason. How many ph1 172's do you currently own between you?

Re: Djw Designs dedicated track toy project You guys are f**king batshit. I love it though. I'd love that black ph1, I really want a tidy up project. Finance says no until Novemeber though. :(

Sorry dude I'm a ph1 owner, not familiar with this ph2 stuff. I'm not talking about jumping up and down on it though, if the bonnet has "popped" up, then there should be a certain degree of movement in it now (up and down about half an inch) just move it up and down whilst pulling on the...

Oh and just for verification and the satisfaction of the Scotsman, I've just checked every reported post by Gally in the last 2 years and none are about you Adamm. Hope that helps you and your clearly overinflated ego.

Try pushing it up and down a bit whilst pulling on the release.

Good work, considering how cheap the pipe will be can you not fit all new stuff? Or is that a ball ache? Wish I lived closer, I'd love to come lend a hand.

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?
