sl*g mate! looks wise its pretty much staying like that now, just want some nice seats
 


^ i know what you mean, its the best of a bad bunch, looks alot better than the magnex oval i think
 


Looks good.

You let me mum reverse up the drive a week or so ago. Looked just as clean then.

The back looks wound down different amounts has it ben setup like that?
 


christ that looks good.

Lose the exhaust, or at least get it fitted properly.

Other than that, thats one of the nicest Cups ive seen.

:D
 


Is that on coilovers, which ones? Looks good mate.

I wouldnt mind getting my wheels done like that, probably matt black though.
 


cheers peeps, its on gaz coilvers, but changing to h&rs soon, as the rears make too much racket whilst driving. The rears are set up the same each side, 1 and a half turns up from the bottom, the pic of the rear is not the most flattering, but i think it has more to do with the lack of photography skills to be honest! (ie wonky)The exhaust doesnt look to good in the pic, but looks alot better in the metal, wanted a stelth one really, but heard the fitment isnt the best?

My stealth system in fine.

Paul(clarkie172) has the same set up.

How much would you be looking for the GAZ setup after you change to H&R?
 


not sure mate, ill get the h&Rs and ill drop you a pm? if not theyll go on ebay. Only looking about two weeks max, they are fine only got em in jan, just fancy a change
 


One of the nicest Cups I have seen

Again, I dont like the exhaust, I think oval would look cool, but those wheels look amazing on it.

cheers! itll need modding to be cut into the bumper, to do that id probably sell it and get a stealth jobbie. Personally i think it looks miles better than the magnex oval, very gash, the oval pipe dont suit the straight lines of the back bumper imo
 


is it just me that thinks it looks too low?!

wheel arches arent anywhere near concentric with the wheels. side on looks a bit funny thats all.

Looks great otherwise and Im sure it handles like fcuk :devilish:

the back end of a car should be raised slightly higher than the front as it aids turn in apparently, look at this,

granted mine is slammed to the weeds but ive tried to keep the rear raised a little higher than the front, and it handles awsomme. :)
 


awesome car dude, ive just had a magnex twin fitted on my 172 but it doesnt stick out at the back as much as that.

itll look loads better is it was shorter imo.

nice car loving it!! Love the wheels.

think the exhaust sticks out too much at the rear though

it would look better on bigger tyres, or maybe wider tyres cos the horizontal gaps between the tyres and the car dont do it any favours
 


trophy looks ridiculous at that height, even if it does handle well it could do with being lower
