FFS they don't need replacing, they are designed to be rebuiilt.

Usual misconceptions. The Trophy is massively different to drive compared to a 172 and cupped 182 (I've owned all 3). Based on the 182cup, you get recaro's, Turini's, V6 spoiler, no xenons, no auto wipers. The suspension is very different, you can carry far more speed into, through, and out of...

Difference between 200 and 1500quid. Mechanical stuff will make it more fun, the colours a bonus

Yep.

Today, probably her best angle at the moment And the worst angle!! Plans: -AST coilovers, being fitted thursday -Respray panels (obviously!) -Original alloys -Ktec stealth (fitted already) (needs adjusting) -Brakes (ds2500's etc) -Cobra Misano seats -Ph2 rear bumper Next year -Cams -Respray...

The ferodo/brembo package is spot on, only thing I don't like is the squeal. Very strong though.

Can't see it in the pics.

Trust me, he does when required.

I'll give him a shout, tell him I want in!!

Think I may give Curtis a shout, think a group buy could do quite well.

Powerstation, only place (i think!), but Dan knows more.

:lolup:

Wasn't this sold on rsport recently? Lovely cars, shiney autos??

Liar LOL.

True. 90% of people who try them think they are average at best.

Yep. It's currently a shed (but a cheap, low miles shed). By the time it's perfect, it will still of cost less than cars with 30k miles more are going for.

Give it a week or so and I can give you an idea on how the AST's run.

Wouldn't touch a car in that condition, with no paper work at that price.

H&R are meant to be very good, I've gone for AST adjustable's, only £50 more than the H&R's. Only coilover kit (AFAIK) that has a coilover for the rear and the front. Agree with gaz, don't skimp on them.

Pics?

Can just about see it there, thicker rim where thumbs go

You fancy doing it? If you're free, I can leave it with you all day any friday.

It's the Rs twingo with the thumb grips.

How much fitted? I would attempt it, but I don't want to break my car, exhaust/seats about as far as I can go. I'll pop over after I've had the AST's fitted, you can show me how they should be driven.

182 bumper then?

The GT ones have the thumbgrips, but not in that stupid plastic/rubber that falls apart if you look at it. What does the airbag say on the wheel, SRP? If so, should be a direct fit. It's the same shape etc, so even if the wiring's different could just put the old airbag unit in the new wheel.

Where's the cheapest place to get one? £141 from ktec, anywhere cheaper?

You can't see the looks from the drivers seat. Mizin cars. Get an old school mini, engine transplant, insure as a kit car. Uber cheap, cool as f**k, won't look chavvy.

Madness to pay that much on a relatively cheap car. And why get a 106gti? 306gti/rallye all the way.
