moving on from 106 gti's to clios! pics inside..

[jonny.GTI]

hi! after 3 years of messing around with gti's iv decided i want a better car! so im after a 182 already seen the banter and abuse on this forum is 100times better than 106owners... heres a few pics of my old motors, hopefully followed by one of a 182 next week if all goes to plan...

track shots...nurburgring and rockingham last year

back to nurburgring in may so need a 182 asap so i can tweak a few things before i go

 

[Greeny.]

The 106's look great, welcome to the club and good luck with the 182 purchase.

 

[Sanders]

Welcome mate, that red gti looked a minter

 

[kaz_quiksilver]

[Jay.S]

Welcome from another mover on from 106oc..

 

[nicknick]

Welcome mate. I had a pre-cat, non sunroof, 1.4 xsi in cherry red with a pugsport a long long time ago. Absolutely loved it.

 

[Dave Hester]

Welcome mate.

Be warned, clios are a lot harder to tune than a 106 gti

Infact a no standard clio is quicker than a stripped out cammed gti

ino mate. the red xsi was stripped out and cammed n it beat my mates 182 quite easily. but at the end of the day there a lot more of a car whilst still being quick and good round corners

 

[Dave Hester]

Your right, its a good upgrade and they are alot more grown up and refined, better built etc.

But whilst a exhaust and filter makes a noticable difference on a gti, it does f**k all for performance on a clio

 

[Dave Hester]

Forgot to say, if your still gunna do track days its a 172cup you want

Cheaper, lighter and faster than a 182.

You will 100% regret buying a 182

[Feirny]

Oh, nobhead alert. You've crashed more 106s than I can remember.

Hi Jonny :rasp:

 

[Dr HMS Derv Destroyer]

Hi Jonny :rasp:

iv only crashed 1 ya corpse! new it wouldnt be long before you piped up haha

 

[CabinFever]

Welcome. All of your 106's look tastefully done.

In terms of speed, I can't see there being a lot in it. My AX GT, with Cammed VTS engine, 4-2-1 Janspeed, stripped ( 650kgs ) plays with 1*2's, but I would'nt want to crash in it. At least with the 182 you will get the best of both worlds.

Enjoy.
