How do you find the conti 2s? Ive heard some mixed views on those!
Ill need to srub the fronts in more before I push it and find out. The rears are well and truly bedded in already ;)

The rubbing on the back required 10mm spacers (on each side), so I got some nicely machined Eibach Pro-spacers - top quality, and just push them out enough! Glad I didnt go for 5mm....

How much? You dont want to know ;) (get them refurbed!)

Looks great. Also wanting to know if those are k-tech exhausts and what you think of the sound. thanks!
 


With pics like that it makes me want to get a 10k loan and part ex my mk 172 and get myself one of them!

But then its the running costs and insurance! :(

Very smart looking V! :D

Mike, very impressive.

Is that a K-Tech Exhaust? i guess you just cut the mesh out?

Anyway, the car looks fantastic.





It was Charlie at Prospeed who made and fitted the exhaust Jay :cool:

Its dif to most cause its actually 2 welded together in the middle...............in other words each bank has its own seperate exhaust..........just welded together so it looks like one eh........if that makes sense :D

Mr172 the running costs are not that bad................take mine its just coming up on 4 years old and the total spent on servicing etc is £1700...........but this includes over £1000 the previous owner paid for a stainless exhaust............so your left with £700 for 4 years running..............it doesnt get much cheaper than that eh :D

Cya Stu

PS insurance.........well thats a dif matter...........just depends how old you are.

Nice car - alloys fill the arches much better, and that exhaust looks awesome!

Is there a "how-to" on changing the rear lights from phase 1 to phase 2? They look much better!
