That looks really nice! seats look awesome too!

Thought id take a few shots of the car as I have been fairly busy this week. On monday had a Milltek fitted, really pleased with it, sounds just right and fits near on perfectly. Then on friday fitted Osram Diadems all round, although I know everyone will say I should have gone for...

Interesting view there! Id def have one over my 182 (after already owning one for 6000 miles of driving) if I could afford

Ill second that - the handling is spot on with cup suspension - I wouldnt touch it! It even felt spot on round the nurburgring!

Yeah my mate in the passenger seat was quite vocal! haha he is a special lad sometimes!

http://www.vimeo.com/1156515 My 197 R27 - sounded nice as standard - you will love it! have a 182 with cup packs now but really miss my 197 - although its nice to have a load of money left over! :)

I had a 197 R27, ive got a 55 plate 182 now with cup packs... I loved the 197, was an awesome car however now I still have a good car but 6k change in my pocket! (not literally haha) I find I can still have a lot of fun with the 182, just miss the build quality, seats, brakes, gearbox and high...

Would be interested to go out in a clio with decent coilovers on - my mate fitted Gaz coilovers to his 172 ph1 and it was that bouncy it was useless on back roads, the wheels were never in contact with the road to get any traction!

I didnt like the apex springs on my 172, found them ok on smooth roads, but the car pitched and bounced on my favourite b roads when driven hard, making it dangerous. Having said that when i swapped to eibachs I replaced the rear struts at the same time, so not sure if they played a part in it...

I was bored on sat afternoon haha, its only with movie maker, need to learn adobe premier really! or at least how to get started with it!

Only just had it fitted, ill get some taken tonight, will try do a video too. Nick

Just had a milltek and decat fitted to the 182 this morning, sounds great and fits perfectly! well impressed! Was worried about it being too loud with the decat but sounds spot on, nice tone without being boomy. Would def recommend the setup Nick

Just been messing about with some of the footage I had from marham... http://www.vimeo.com/2000182

That sounds awesome! Is it boomy at all at cruising speeds? I went a bit extreme when I had my type r with the exhaust and it was unbearable on motorways, also it was impossible to talk to passengers! haha

I have put a page together on www.playtoymotorsport.com with some vids etc http://www.playtoymotorsport.com/raf_marham_track_day_october_2008.html

No probs!

It is unlucky - but I thought the 197 R27 I had was one of the most forgiving and progressive cars I have driven on the limit - having said that nothing can re write the laws of physics!

Did anyone order a Marham photo cd from their photographers? Im tempted if I can still order one!

Saw a 52 plate 172 cup with cliosport stickers in the window parked in morrisons car park, turinis in black. Looked good!

Cheers for the comments - I was liking the Liquid Yellow 182! looked v nice!

Ill have a look - all the pics are here... http://www.flickr.com/photos/playtoymotorsport/sets/72157607997927170/ However there were a few I didnt put on, will check this evening when im at home Nick

Cheers, using a Nikon d80 with a 18/135 and a 70/200 but they are only f4.5. Want a better lens!

It imploded apparantly on the main straight - the passenger got glass dust in his eyes but he was ok after going to hospital to have it washed out!

and a few more for good measure...

Ok! finally here are the pics I took at Marham this weekend just gone...

Cheers - looks funny over the piano keys - thought I may aswell entertain myself whilst stuck in traffic!

Ive been looking on there, if you go in the east anglia section there is a marham thread but not pics yet (well there werent earlier!)

Woooooo- im on with the pics!

PS have you put the vid up of the session where i was getting the 106 sideways infront of you?!:D
