ai that was quite amusing, think we were about 2 ticks from being reported to the constabulary by some angry old biddies!lol! and the poor lass in the Porsche got no relief, was pissing about with her all the way down the M42 :)

Popped down a while back to see Ross in his Cup turbo, had a blat out, bit of giggle passenger style in each car, then a blat up the highways and byways. Took the liberty of a couple of harf arfsed snaps at Kenilworth Castle (I think, Ross correct me if I'm wrong?! excuse the sloppy...

will do mate, may want the standard wheels doing one day ;)

doh, should of got a dodgy deal on the blasting first mate shouldn't I ;)

as above, make sure its quality, and above all re-sellable, parts and your going to be onto a winner. use them while you have the lower spec car then when the RS bug hits you can easily recoup some cash from the old car/mods

gold!!!!! but your right, you will get fed up of them I bet. only clio to pull of gold wheels well is a Williams ;) thinking man would say anthrashite

hoping they may out do UYN on the anthracite turinis Luke mate, although with less lows it may not quite work.....

I paid 65 a wheel plus blasting, so they aren't cheap ;)

get over to RTOC, best resource for 5 GTT questions tbh :)

lol, everythings for sale..............at a price ;)

yeah man, plain old anthracite tho they were ;) paints L.W's mate as ever :)

cheers lads... paint > powdercoat imo

some more bits showed up, got hold of some genuine speedline Williams wheels with caps and some spare bullets got the lot painted in BMW Sparkling Graphie Grey Metallic got to leave them for a week to cure fully as they are literally out of the oven atm, tyres will be 195/50 R15...

roflcopter :)

Brian and Sharkey

Williams (phase 1 or 2) Mk1 16v (phase 1 or 2) is close but the widetrack on the Williams just pips it for me (I know not technically part of the body but stance does aid the decision)

^^^ amen

only those, bill of 8 grand thought still ;) i'm away all weekend mate anyway and no real rush is there, not like the beans going to see daylight anytime soon with the german barge sapping all the cash ;)

oh and Davey, your fuel guard is off and good to go ;)

all the parts I have chap have been sourced second hand through the classifieds on here :)

I didn't, too low and wheels stuck under the arches too far ;) but its going back on 15's soon, the cup rims are just for it to sit on in the meantime! oh, also done the fresh plates thing too with the smaller front one :)

right been a long long time since I updated this thread, the cars gone through several iterations since, mostly wheel changes and I have since added 15mm front and 10mm rear per side spacers and put the standard cup wheels back on. most recent progress has been engine bay changes, perhaps not...

the Pirelli's are awesome tyres, had them in 205/45 fit on turinis and picked them up part worn for 20 quid a tyre with some crafty ebaying had some s drives ages back on 195/45 R16 fit on some superleggera's and they were a very good all round tyre also, so i'd recommend them as well tbh...

the plugs look good, perhaps not an injector then...... unfortunately sound like it could be one of those impossible to trace wiring type issues.

thoroughly lovely car, good work :)

when you say 'still running rough' does that imply it was running badly before the garage did the work? if so my monies on injector going down, same as other post about a 182 in this forum. diagnosis method detailed in that thread

injector on its way out, let it idle rough for a bit, check for a blacked up plug. note which pot its on and then swap injector from that pot with a 'clean' one. clean all the plugs up and refit then fire it up and let it idle again. check the plugs again and see if the dirty plug has followed...

965mm

i like that, just needs a tad lower and bang, done!

Has anyone got a centre section they can measure for me? overall length and length of all 3 parts, so the box, the long pipe to rear axle and the short pipe to the car (with it set on the sleeve to correct length to fit the car) any help much appreciated cheers Ben
