On the front ones yeah there a bolt spacing difference i think. But the rears are they same :) When i bought two new rear shocks from Renault in Aberdeen as one rear one had went(it was leaking oil) the parts guy said the 172ff and 172 cup shock were the same. The part numbers were the same...

Re: Painting wheels... Thats not bad for cans. How long did that take you ? And was there a lot of prep ? And a lot of cans used ?

f**k knows :( I they do won't that cause airflow problems and cause the car to run like s**t ? :(

Looking good :) What paint you using for the wheels ? Just Halfrauds Spray paint ? And remember and pile on the lacquer, as they'll be a fucker to keep clean :( And as for the bullets, i'd have kept that one quiet, as now everyone will have white wheels and blue bullets :(

That looks lush mate. Totally stealth, makes me wish i got a black one now :( As silver will never look as good as that. Is that a Meggie spliter i spot ? And whats it lowered on ?

An pics of these rubber washers ? Even though it sounds self explanatory. And do these rubber washers act as a barrier between the outside and inside at all to stop water ingress ? And is it honestly worth the hassle ? Pics after and before would be great.. ;)

Ok decision made. When i get back from offshore it'll be fitted :)

I guess if you needed to do it you needed to do it. Was it just boredom that prompted you on to do it ? Snowing or not ? At least it wasn't raining, although it'd have been a bit wet and nippy changing the oil (lying on your back to get drain plug out) Was gonna ask if you feel a difference...

Did you get anything from them ? Or did they just say tuff :(

Wheres Rich and the cleaning guru's when you need them ? Haha :rasp:

Did you get to run Martin ? If so, what was results ? And what you done to car ? I asked you before i'm sure but have forgot. Lol :rasp:

Ok cheers mate :approve: I'd best get on the net and find out where to get Rover Grey paint ;) Do you think the antharcite 182 wheels would look alright on a non 182 ? I'm dubious, everyone will think i'm trying to make a 182 replica and cant afford this exhaust :(

Ah right i did wander. What happend to the private plate you had on your 182 ?

Some great pics there :) Looked like a great day, bar the rollers breaking and the weather. Is that Ali's new Zed ? It looks nice :) *Go on everyone, post up your results and your mods :) :)

Bloody hell, thats a fair gain from an exhaust :) How much did they k tec system sting you ? Was it rolling roaded at falkland when it was 162bhp ?

You cars looking sweet mate :) What else is done to it ? What colours are your bullets ? And were the easy enough to paint ?

Does anyone know what colour the standard wheels are ? Whats the name of the silver ?

Ok cheers bud. I'm running Sportlines at the moment anyway with standard shock and the rides suprisingly good. Who stocks Koni's ?

That aint bad for and exhaust and filter :) And its decatted as well i take it ? Whats the miles ? I'm just trying to get an idea of what mine is pushing out :)
