Re: Project 172k Trophy, & its endless track abuse
Good stuff Dave. Car's always feel so much better after a service, but after all that you must feel like you've gain 20hp!
Just LOL!
You really think that makes the iPhone LOOK dated? I'd rather carry a 3310 than that bloody thing.
Oh and just so you know, this isn't fanboy based hate, it's 3D based hate.
Everything has to be 3D now and until it all goes back to 2D I will rant.
3D looks awful, this isn't the...
I didn't go quite as far as the above (but colour coding was next on the list before I sold it).
Ph2 rear bumper
Ph1 172 dual optic headlights
Fog lights added
Full ph1 172 interior added
Dynamic colour coded spoiler
Ph2 172 16" wheels
Lowered on -60mm Apex springs
Bloody amazing car if you ask me mate, I've got a real thing for anything that looks like this. I want to buy/build (I'm unsure) a kit car in the next few years.
Keep us updated, I'll be interested to see what you do with it. :)
Car looks nice, I actually quite like the black.
Please don't crash this one, you drove the 200 like a tool, and clearly didn't slow down too much in the 500, let's hope you've learnt now.

My first car was almost exactly the same as yours (although the darker red) and I put 17's on it at first. After I fitted some Ph2...
Very nice car for the mrs, liking yours too but I imagine the wheels would look 10x better in person, black never comes out on anything other than seriously hi res photos.
I've never ran Koni's so I have no idea I'm afraid, but having springs that are effectively too long for your shock would undoubtedly cause the shock to be less effective.
As Jamie says, alignment checks are cheap enough, I'd get that done first maybe.
