^^^^ My point exactly . If your gonna dump the cup packs anyway i wouldn't bother specifically looking for a car that has the cup packs , if thats all he can find then all well and good , bearing in mind i think the majority of buyers chose the cup pack option .
If he's going to change the...
I've never had a problem with em ,only one i can't use is orange cos i can't get a good signal where i live .Its a bit of a minefield trying to find the best deal , lol .
Yeah but in his original question he was saying if he plans to change the suspension , alloys and fit his own front splitter . So unless he's planning to sell them on i don't see the point , he might as well buy a non cupped 182 .
I had a standard mk2 172 , i now have a 182 with both cup packs . The 182 is a miles better handling car , also the slightly wider michelins help hell of alot being a better tyre than the contis .
So i can safely safe i would go with cup suspension over standard .
I think you've answered your own question there mate . You say you intend to fit aftermarket suspension , alloys and front splitter . The only thing you won't have is the cup rear spoiler , no big deal imo . So pointless buying an RS with cup packs if your going to remove them .
^^^^ Taking your wheel off is always a good first step , lol . I had a broken collar bone years ago , fcukin hurts mate doesn't it .Good luck with the painting .
I'm only going off what somebody else on here said about adjusting the headlights with these screws . I know had similar ones on my pug 306 and they adjusted the headlights .
I don't know if these screws adjust the headlights vertical or horizontal .
Definitely worth having , the standard units light the road up very well , too well sometimes , lots of people flash you in the opposite direction thinking you have your main beam on , lol .
When i bought my 172 , the contis on the front lasted 7.5k . On my 182 i'm on 4.5k on the michelins so time will tell , still plenty left at the moment , but i do get hardly any wheel spin on the 182 so that helps enormously .
I had one in another phone , held 2 sim cards , you pressed *3375# and it swaps over to the next sim card .
Never heard of having 2 sims cards with the same number though .
The brakes ( calipers , discs , pads ) get extremely hot anyway with or without paint . Never had a problem with mine being painted and i'm sure any heat retained , if any , by using heat resistant paint would be minimal .After all thats all that caliper paint is , heat resistant paint .
