A couple of 182 'noob' modding questions...



  2002 White RS 172.
Hey all, the hunt for a 182 should be beginning in a couple of weeks providing all goes well :) With regards to mods, i have a couple of simple questions:

-Which is considered the best lowering spring kit? (springs only, not coils/shocks), i'd be after something that sits the car down nicely, but doesn't compromise the handling or give a ridiculously hard ride.

-What's considered the best exhaust system for the 182? I'd be willing to pay upto about £500, so exclude the Orbisoud!

Thanks in advance people.

apex springs are well regarded achieving -40mm but eibach sportlines are good too more like -25 / -30mm

for exhausts people rave about prospeed and hayward and scott but Yozzasport now have a system, Blueflame are regarded as best value.
 
My blueflame is awesome looking, though havent got it sounding right... got a rattle which im fitting 2moro!

Sportlines springs are awesome, especially for the money. They stop the car lookin like a 4x4 and improve the handling no end.

Makes you want to throw the car into corners.....:star:

blueflame probably do a 172 zorst, email them sales@blueflameperformance.com or call 01695 733100 ask for Nigel

Ktec stealth is a popular one for mk2 172s and sounds great.
 
yeah i've just noticed there's one going in the for sale section too, very tempted....just need to get rid of my headunit for funding!

What's best, Pro lines or sport lines?

Sports lower the car more but have been told that Pros are better.
