For the money your wanting to spend Joe, I would wait for somthing special, or somthing well modified Chi have you got anything nice for him in your collection
Gutted for you, theres another one on there for £3500 but think the miles are higher on it.
Might be worth waiting around for one to come up if you search ebay ofter.
Or go for a 182 full fat thats had the recaros factory fitted.
Suspension isnt as good but its still decent
Will have to be more june/july Chi still got to complete... this month = body, next month = brakes&tyres, then the month after = cambelt, dephaser and service.
Then after all that I'll end up in the tyres at oulton hahah
So.. as some of you may know, I'm after some parts for my cup so I can get it repaired after buying it crash damaged.
Its a 172 cup model in TED 43 paint.
Now I've seen the odd bits come and go over the past two weeks at reasonable prices, but now there is prety much nothing!
And thats what...
lots more replies since i last looked at this thread!!
I appreciate the varied oppinions this forum has to offer, and the latter oppinions have definatly made me feel happier about the whole project.
After speaking with Chi the other night about different options I've decided to get the car...
Anybody still using the PS3 for GT5/6.

Ahh right ok, well I've become slightly attached to this one now, and dont have room for a donor car on my drive. I'll certainly buy any goodies you have to offer when the time comes though. Cheers, I appreciate it.
As in you'll break parts off yours and sell to me? It cant be until september but aslong as everything is in good condition then I'm definatly intrested. My budget for parts is £3500 so if I can get better spec/more goodies by going 2nd hand then happy days.
What sort of things on my list do you...
An awful lot of the fun is actualy about the build itself for me mate, so wouldn't be interested in buying a ready made one.
Nice idea for somone less handy on the snappers though so thanks for the thought :-)
That sounds like the way I should have gone mate.
Its just I look at other peoples build threads and think... I WANT THAT!!!
And i'm fortunate enough to be in a possision where I can buy everything in one go in september.... I think your reply has just made my mind up. Cheers Coops
Thanks for the advice, I'm sure I'll get to know people on here eventualy and hopfuly will be able to sort somthing out in the neer future. that is a grat idea.
Cheers, i will be posting a few threads when it comes to the crunch and i'm spending the money. I'm sure you guys will point me in the right direction to save some cash.
The car is just going to be a toy for me mate, mostly for track days with the occasional fast road outing on a sunday. So i can afford to loose all the creature comforts i would need for daily use.
Hi, I recently posted an introduction thread as I'm new to the fourum.
Within the thread i mentioned the plans for my 53 plate 172 cup track car project (62,000 miles on the clock).
the car is currently completely standard, apart from both cup packs of course.
I have now compiled a list of...
ok, cheers for the advise. for the time being i'm just going to use the turinis with a decent dry use tyre, then make my choises from there.
i'm lucky enough to live a stones throw away from oulton park so testing will play a big part in the build.
hoping to get fairly serious in the long...
Chi any major differences betwene the 2118's and turini's (weight/stengh)?
i need multiple sets of wheels for different tyre configurations so i may just buy the 2118's for my wet tyres
