My new FF 182

Gobsheene · Mar 10, 2009

Well, some of you alreadys know that I was after one of these for quite some time, and after getting let down on a Metallic blue one a few weeks back I picked this up on Saturday past.

I've just taken the pics from the original guys post on RMS... Oh and some of you may already have seen it before!

Totally loving this so far.

Cheers

very nice, looks a clean example.

Not keen on the look of that exhaust. Blueflame?

B7JLS · Mar 10, 2009

Excuse my ignorance, but I'm new to the rs 1*2 range!

I thought it was only the 182 cup that came in RB?

Gobsheene · Mar 10, 2009

Not a clue all i know is its a custom one... its a little too large and fouls the recess on very low revs. Its also rather loud, but I may change it to a Yozza down the line

lol, if you think the Blueflame (I think its blueflame?) exaust is too loud, you really don't want to be getting the YozzaSport system!

New exhaust hangers will probably sort out the alignment problems

ForceIndia · Mar 10, 2009

Is it a full fat? In that case get rid of the cup badges! Otherwise nice.
(exhaust isn't blueflame, they have slash cut tips)

Nope, available on both Cup and standard 182s. It was one of the free colours.

Yes! Loudest 182 system I've heard. I'd gor for the set-up that Christopher runs, Milltek. Sounds great!

VeinAST · Mar 10, 2009

Gorgeous car

jesus · Mar 10, 2009

That lad can't make up his mind lol, glad it's still on here and in our area too :approve:

Hope it's still on the our stand at UCS 29th March Niall

Gobsheene · Mar 10, 2009

True. Thats with a decat and removed centre box aswell. It realy does sound epic though.

To be fair without the centre box it certainly doesn't sound any quieter than the yozzasport, however that is exactly what he wanted.

I'd probably go down the same route too, its cheaper than the yozza IIRC and gives a slightly deeper tone but is still raspy with the decat and centre box removal.

Marky_ · Mar 10, 2009

I welcomed the guy who bought this not so long ago.

Congrats anyway.

Actually... it would appear that they've kept me off the stand all together... I'd day there would be dropouts, so keep me a place

Leeshez · Mar 11, 2009

DebV6 · Mar 11, 2009

GarethM · Mar 11, 2009

nice!

keep the stripes on too (if you were thinking of removing them)

Gobsheene · Mar 12, 2009

Nope they're staying

Really like them!

Ordered a few wee parts for it.

1 headlight washer as one is missing the ball and some Phillips Lazer blue sidelights to match the HIDS... hopefully they dont look w@nked out and spidey.

Next is some mats! But they'll have to wait to next month as im TOTALLY broke after buying it lol.

MikeyK18 · Mar 12, 2009

Good question!

I haven't seen anything i like at the moment but still looking.

I'm trying to avoid starting a "what car thread" lol

Gobsheene · Apr 27, 2009

Few wee updates as of this past week.

New Janspeed/K-Tec Ultra Performance exahust fitted by BBSBoy... legend (Y) Thanks lad

The old one [that was 18 months old!!] was quite a state when it came off too. And I just thought it was a loud exhaust when I bought the car, turns out it was broken in 2 places and blowing out elsewhere

New Headlight Schoosher fitted, again by BBSBoy in a head stagger last Thurs night! lol

Then nice new disks and pads fitted by myself on Saturday.

All running and sounding breaking 100 times better

fezsi · Apr 27, 2009

So ur saying the car made 184bhp with a broken exhaust in two places?!?! lol

I new it was a fit wee motor!

Nice mods lad.

Gobsheene · Apr 27, 2009

Also found what the matter was with the discs lad... CV Joint grease all over the back of the discs ruined the pads and they were breaking on about 1/3 of what they should have been at one side.

fezsi · Apr 27, 2009

Auw good job nothing it wasn't anything serious. Was nice of me to get you the discs and pads before she went lol

Need more pictures! ... oh and a new dyno to see what the difference has been.

Gobsheene · Apr 27, 2009

New Pics will be had once the wheels are refurbed and the CF splitter is fitted

Greeny. · Apr 27, 2009

Welcome to clio ownership
