[Ian_182]

Both lovely,but that phase 1 black on black looks awsome

 

[Rudi]

ph-wide pics

[DebV6]

Very nice

 

[cjewkes]

Ain't it great how rain makes your car look so much cleaner than it is Gav

 

[fossie]

Good pics matey, both cars look very nice

 

[BREMBO]

Very nice I think the Ph1 looks better on the standard wheels

Very nice standard cup...coilovers would look good though

 

[Gavin J]

Cheers guys and yes rain works a treat making cars 'look' clean

Managed to hurt my hip taking those, i wonder why..........

.....I won't be doing that again.......

 

[Baz-ESD]

[B5 BDJ]

prefer the ph1 though obviously!!

 

[gaz44]

nice pics apart from the stoopid fog lights! No need.

 

[Brett]

Ph-quick FTW. Only 14kg's heavier than a cup but with a few luxurys.

 

[GarethM]

[172Ben]

[rosskerr]

[Gavin J]

Fogs were just put on the photo's i can assure you 100% they are not used on a daily basis!! they give a quite cool effect if the b/white pics.

 

[MikeyK18]

Cups aint quicker :rasp:

 

[clvs2222]

nice to see a cup which hasnt been modified! looks ace....

This is true lol...plus hides the slight leak on the one fog light

 

[Gavin J]

yes it does get a bit waterlogged!!

 

[jack_davey]

cup is sitting fairly high isnt it?

both look good though

 

[Fletcher]

Liking the ph1 172.

 

[cjewkes]

Its running stock cup springs...

 

[jack_davey]

Yeah I thought it was, but my FF 182 (cup suspension) sat lower than that I'm sure!
Does the 172 cup use different springs to cup/cup packed 182s?

 

[Tucker]

how do they compare speed-wise?

 

[Gavin J]

Well to be honest i have driven my bro's Cup once and only for a short journey and at the time the weather was awful, so didn't really give it any stick. But didn't seem to much difference......although i do like the suspension set up on the cup as it both handles great and retains ride comfort whereas my phase 1 handles good but it's a little bit of a bone shaker!!

So i cant really comment on which i feel is quicker yet - i need to wait for a nice dry day and ask him to swap cars for a day lol if he trusts me enough that is?!

We will have to see about that :rasp:

 

[Tucker]

go for a drive together??

 

[Gavin J]

I think the best test is to drive it for a day to be honest as id soon be able to tell which was quicker as i do upto 1500 miles a month in my phase 1 going round the same roads and twisties daily, so to me thats the only true way you get to know a car, fair enough we could both go down to an indutrial estate and nail them from a standing start but then it could always come down to the better driver :rasp:

I want to pinch his car for a day and then i'll say which is quicker - although i'm quite aware that my bro is not to fond of my driving style at some times:clown:

Photoshop the fogs - good pics then
