RyG's 172

[Inequality Street]

Picked this up around two weeks ago. Been busy since..

104K ish on the clock
Low owners
Belts done
Power flow exhaust
Turini's, 182 seats, cup splitter.. Happy days. Most important thing, drives lovely and pulls like a train.

So.. Thoughts were, keep it cheap. So naturally I did this..

Here you can just about see the alloys I bought for track. They're on whilst I self refurb my turini's.

I'd quite like a new steering wheel and some buckets/harness's in the near future. We'll see..

Oh, and I bought these:

Fun stuff.

If the track wheels were clean and tyres blackened they were look really track **** cool!

This car doesnt see much cleaning love I must admit. There's been bird poo on it for days! Shocking really.

Forgive my ignorance, which tyres are those? Nice looking car btw.

 

[Chi]

RSRs?

 

[Tommo.]

Look more like AD08r's to me....

Yokahoma AD08r's - They're for the Turini's when they're refurbed

 

[Fantom]

Looks good

Looks good but why stick a safety devices sticker on a cheap eBay cage?

Came on the cage, dont ask me. I plan on getting it powder coated soon (maybe) anyway.

Problem with black wheels, tyres always look dirty and need dressing.

Looks like an interesting stop gap project. Curious to see where it all leads

I 'wood' love to have that! Though I dont think its viable and yeah, go hard or go home may as well do it right!

I dont like black wheels on black cars personally. Turini's are off and de-tyred, I need to start sanding them really. Going some form of grey, or maybe a bright silver, not decided yet!

 

[AlexW]

Pink wheels, Pink cage, Pink shirt.

You know you wanna.

I shamefully cannot remember how, so was planning on pretending it wasn't there

 

[Inequality Street]

I always neglect project threads.

So.. In the last week, I've bolted in my cage (at last).. Fitted FK Konisport coilovers.. New brake pads.. 4 new AD08r's on my Turini's.

Oh, and my drivers side drive shaft has gone KAAABOOOOM and gone everywhere.

Planning on keeping this until mid next year now.

 

[AlexW]

Sorry, who did what?.....

Yeah, I did it!

 

[Bluebeard]

How come you're not running the 15's Ry?

 

[Inequality Street]

Yeah, I did it!

Well, you half did my Suspension.. I suppose. ;-) haha

How come you're not running the 15's Ry?

I have just gone off the alloys I have, I may buy some more at some point, but for now I'll stick with the Turini's I think. With the new pads, suspension and tyres, it drives amazingly now, I would say it corners on par with my old 200 easily, maybe better!
