  RB 182 with CUP packs
Very smart mate.

I like the idea of the Yellow calipers etc.

Not over keen on the seats from that view, but horses for courses.

Exhaust looks fruity....what is it?

Good work

seats are fantastic ;) far better seating position over oe and really hold you in :)
 
  As father and son....
still going strong mate :) done about 4,000 miles since i picked it up and its been fun to say the least. MAC course was insane, the only problem is im driving it hard at the weekends but failing on the cleaning side of it....its looking a bit slagged atm.

tempted to sell for a 182 or a 172 Cup to tide me over till October. Or shelve my plans for my MSc and go full out and sell it for a 'teg :)

I bet the seating position is better.....I do like the Trophy seats, but are expensive

That does look very good! The yello offsets the blue nicely!

Is it the pictures or do the front seats look like they are trimmed with a purple-ish cloth?

yep west heath matey :D

do a search on claying and you will get a lot of info :D

basically you spray detailer on the paintwork and then gentle pass the clay bar over the wet surface, it picks up contaminents such as tar and leaves the paintwork with a glass like finish :D a perfectly clean surface to apply the polish to :D

ive gone for autoglym egp and collinite for the winter as its more durable, the summer cleaning includes vanilla moose wax, poorboys ex-p and p21s but it only gives about 1 months protection and i cant be arsed in cleaning much over winter lol
 
  Evo 8 Jap Crap
Exterior is spot on, like the seats but not the yellow bits on the dash :(

Whats it lowerred by mate and what with?
