182 Cup Racer + Sunset + SLR

[mij29]

What do you use to get your wheels clean mate?

Nice by the way, the wheels really go!

 

[Christopher]

Inlets, cams and a proper exhaust. It's no cup racer without 200 bhp

hehe

yeah, i'm thinking like that!

YS system next anyways.

AG Wheel Brush & Megs Gold Class Shampoo

yeha, no probs fella.

i'll bring some tools to steal your Maxogen too!

expensive :dapprove:

Nah its mint, It is dear, but as they are well sought after for 172/182 i'll get a good wedge back when i'm done. Best built induction kit i've seen/used, pisses from a great height on vipers etc. My old one was shocking

 

[Christopher]

yeah, tell me about it.

i can see me getting pissed off with the Viper very soon and just ordering the ITG

 

[Christopher]

JLO - you have PM...finally.

sorry fella.

 

[Brian]

Fantastic! :approve:

 

[DazG]

I know I have said it a million times before Chris, but you car is f**king awesome!

You'll have some competition from me soon though! Getting my coilovers fitted week today!

 

[Christopher]

should look proper!

you won't regret it lad! :approve:

Can't wait!?!

You ride height, what was it again?

Being quite low do you have to avoid speed bumps? Doesn't it compromise the handling?

[Christopher]

when i bought the car it was lower! lol

max on th back on 3/4 on the front. it hit every speed bump and rubbed the tyres in hard cornering.

i had it raised about 10mm all round and it's 10000x better! no rubbing at all on the tyres.

you just have to be slightly more careful of speepbumps etc obviously. lol

also, your cat is the lowest part of your car...so just watch that you don't smack it on anything. i just decatted mine to save the hassle. lol

as for the handling. it turns it into a dirty great 2.0 go-kart! :approve:

So 40mm at the back and say 50mm at the front!

Sounds about right to me I think!

 

[Christopher]

yeah, just find what's best for you mate tbh.

i use mine everyday and don't find it a problem running low-ish.

another bump up again, just wondering about the side badges? i thought you were going to go for white background blue lettering?

 

[Hawkeye]

Absolutely Stunning looking motor mate....

 

[Christopher]

lol...another bump!

^^cheers S4

Rich - i decided to go with the blue badges as i thought they looked a bit more subtle, yet still matched the wheels, dash etc.
