Exclusive Williams #002...

[Poopensharten]

I appreciate not everyone likes Exclusives but there we go! This is number 002 which i bought in April for a bargain price! At 116k i couldnt turn it down, it needed a little attention in the shape of...

Window Regulator
Speedo sensor
Brakes all round
A good clean

This aside, it was still a decent buy!

I plan to just tidy it up and generally make it shine again! The plans are...

Williams wheels (on)
HID's 6k
Maybe lower?
Phase 2 side strips
Maybe a Cup spoiler?

I dont really do detailling as such although it might be something ill get into eventually. Anyway, enough of that, here are some very pish iPhone pictures, photography being another thing i dont do very well!

Started with my usual cleaning arsenal (i do use micro fibre cloths though i must say )

The result's >

And the rest of the frankly woeful camera malarky >

At the moment its getting 43mpg (worked out over 550 miles) Which im quite happy with! All in all its a great cheap car which is what i need just now.

I may look into getting an R27 in UR or Nimbus, or maybe even a R26! I havent decided!

As always, C+C's welcome!

[Chileno]

LOVED IT!!!!!!!

 

[VeinAST]

Original wheels on Exclusives imo.

 

[BREMBO]

Looking good mate, glad your tidying it up

 

[Bluebeard]

Wheels look dreadful. But as long as your happy, thats all that matters to me. x

Ps, I have a ph1 set of headlights with HID kit. I will do you a very very good deal....

 

[Poopensharten]

Just sell me the HID's you absolute bender?x

[Bluebeard]

Ok.

How much do you want to pay me for them?

 

[Stu-]

LOL, touche

Haha,

Looks clean. Don't think i could live with that interior though.

 

[.GAZ.]

You need fresh headlights Danny, spotted that the other day.

 

[Poopensharten]

What are they, 6k's?

That'll buff right out my san!

 

[.GAZ.]

FLOL!! Brillo pad and some Jif!

 

[Russ_16v]

needs to be a little lower

 

[Retromx]

I like

 

[Poopensharten]

Cheers guys, i agree it could be doing with being lower.. What do people recommend for just lowering springs?

 

[alex-avfc]

The wheels make it...Sportlines and you're away!

 

[Dan519]

Do you a good price on some PI 25mm springs

 

[Poopensharten]

Are they good Dan? I dont know alot about good/bad springs lol

 

[Djw Dave]

NEEDS to be lower!!

 

[alex-avfc]

Just steer clear of Apex!

Sportlines/Prolines = tried and tested (and most importantly, approved!)

 

[Dan519]

but it won't be any lower on those, lol

I like PI, they're good if your shocks are in decent condition

 

[koi]

Defo needs lowered. Don't think Sportlines will be low enough though, they aren't on mine with the f1's on anyway.

 

[.GAZ.]

Apex are awesome.

 

[alex-avfc]

It will be lower with sportlines, although not by a lot.

Apex have a terrible reputation on here (as do P.I.) , oddly enough my mate has just had an apex 25mm kit fitted to his VTS and it rides reasonably and handles great...guess you gotta speak as you find.

 

[.GAZ.]

I had Apex -40mm springs on my first Cup and it went round corners like it was on rails.

 

[alex-avfc]

But rode like a bag of nails and bump steered round every corner I bet!

 

[.GAZ.]

Naw.

 

[Djw John]

Mines on sportlines so see if you like the height of that. If not got some ancient shitey looking springs that were on chav that im sure you could have for not very much

 

[Stu.]

lower it and a cup spoiler and it will be spot on! Then we need a meet to get all the ph1 colours together

there's technically nothing wrong with Apex springs, they're just a terrible mismatch for the standard shocks. with appropriate shocks they'd be fine.

Don't know where you've got PI having a bad rep from. I've fitted loads of sets with no bad feedback

I like this idea!!

That's what I was getting at, as I said with matching shocks like the kit my mates has on his VTS, they're excellent.

I was assuming Danny was going to be lowering on just springs though hence why I suggested Eibachs which are meant to be the best match for std shocks.

 

[jesus]

I prefer the standard wheels but it looks good.

 

[Deeg]

I'm retarded.

Forget it.

Hi Daniel San! Missed this the other day. Very nice. Always loved Willy wheels on the Mk2! Suits it with the green also imo.

Cheers mate, bizzarley enough, i prefer the standard wheels when there not on the car if that makes sense? lol

Forget it.

Cheers Kev, im reluctant to spend money on it as it was cheap, it sort of doesnt make sense but i dont want to see it neglected!

 

[Gally]

I know what you mean. Buy something as a cheap runabout and end up spunking cash at it trying to make it mint!
