182

Hi guys, My 182 has a Non resonated and decatted Milltek... How do these fair on track? Would it be wise to source a resonator and fit it? I'm not sure how loud it is externally, but internally it's pretty 'full on'. Cheers

Welcome to my 2005 Black Gold 182 track car I've owned since mid 2021. Some people see these cars as cheap disposable track toys, but I haven't been able to own/run a fun car before, so this little 182 has become my pride and joy. And then I found the rust... :oops: This winter I've replaced...

Howdy all, have myself a clip 172, is lowered a bit and I've just had the timing belt done. Whenever the car is travelling straight at sub 20kmh and you foot it, it seems as if there's a vibration like a stuffed tie rod or unbalanced wheel, and goes away above 40kmh and doesn't return, it seems...

I’m planning on buying some car ramps - the time has come to de-rust and sort out the underside of my 182! So here’s the question: can anyone recommend a pair which give additional height over the standard? Most seem to be about 20cm (8 inches) - is there anything out there that’s higher?

So my latest purchase is this Racing Blue 182. I went to purchase a Racing Blue in 2015, admittedly when they were worth a lot less than what they’re fetching now! But due to circumstances out of my control, I never ended up buying it. Ended up purchasing a non cup Arctic blue 182 instead...
