leg end, cheers mate.

IMO those wheels are the best wheels about, should have been chosen over the Turinis aswell for the cup. If I were you Id get in touch with Loony and buy his coilovers off him and do this... http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y62/chris172cup/182-superleg01.jpg and then maybe this...

For some reason a patch on my rear bumper has started to look a bit dodgy with an area of swirls/fine scrathes. From what I have read in the search and in the great pinned post about paint care, these can be taken out?? Is the Megs Scratch X the product to go for? Wheres a good place top buy...

That looks perfetc imo. From all angles. Sitting on the coilovers makes it SO SO different.

Take em out and put full harnesses in;)

Fantastic, hope you enjoy CS.

Nice, where you from mate? Youve got 15s??

GT3 RS...now thats one sexy car!

Hi

Noted

It was just spur of the moment thing as Ive got the day so online ordering wouldnt help...might just end up watching the cricket all day...heaven:D

wtf:confused: Is all this readily availble from say halfords etc? Clay, whats this, hows it applied/used? [Edited by CHRIS172CUP on 8/26/2005 8:47:58 AM]

As Ive got to wait in for british gas this afternoon I thought Id wax my cup! Havent done it once since I got it so thought Id treat her. Im a complete novice when it comes to this, got some wax but what cloths are the best? Im not going crazy and spending loads, just wondered what I can pick...

Good pics, who took them. Welcome to the bug of trackdays:D

Cool pics, lmao at the cup with For Sale in the window...at a trackday.

From my past experience of driving the N/A VX Id say get one. You cant compare the 2 really and youre gonna get all the sh*t comments from people in here that havent driven one. Theyre not necessarily that much quicker than the cup tbh. More experience will give a good advantage definately...

Sorry for the poach!

Probably look more like this... http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y62/chris172cup/172_turbines.jpg

Got the car, need the wheels!

Need a side shot of the car and the wheels mate, then I could give it a go.

Looks low mate but rear needs to be lower to, nice:D

I found quite a difference in mine and the 182 cup when I did Oulton Park. I took my mates 182 cup out then drove the Trophy which felt different to that. My 172 cup does feel rawer/rougher round the edges (which I dont mind at all) and the 182 a bit more stable although not many of them have...

That looks the nuts mate, very impressive. The wheels go really well with all the black.

I got the Hi Carbon Brembo discs, still bedding in but they already feel much better. But saying that, I did notice a lot of abuse from the summers track fun;)

Whats the best way to bed this in, with Brembo Hi-Carbon discs? The leaflet is for track/race bedding in lol. Any advice welcome, cheers.
