Arctic Blue 182 FF - Spec & photos after a year

[philip_james]

I've owned my AB for a year now - 2nd 182 I've owned after I regretted selling my RB! I don't post much on here but I'm on here all the time appreciating all your cars and learning from the forums knowledge and passion for cheap, french hatchbacks - so thanks :up:

Here's the current spec -
Engine
Scorpion 192 Exhaust
Ktec engine mounts
Powerflex dogbone gearbox mount

Suspension
Ktec coilovers
PMS solid top mounts
Powerflex ARB bushes - inner and outer

Other
Powerflex steering rack bushes
Cup offset Turinis

New OEM parts just fitted
Track rod ends
Lower arms with all bushes and ball joints
All brake discs and pads

Next move is to get some 15's for it, either F1s or Pro Race 1.2s, maybe williams wheels if I can find any. Cambelt is due in a couple of months too :grimacing:

Which blue paint do you prefer?

Awesome. Arctic Blue is like the runt of the litter but looks epic when its clean!

Cheers. I like the Arctic but would go back to an RB in an instant.

I'd agree, they're just 172 cup wannabes. Mine is anyway.

That looks perfect. Credit to you!

Cheers, I have a picture of yours saved on my laptop as inspiration... Need some 172 cup washer blanks next!
