As some of you may know already,i had an accident in my Cup & hit a barrier.In a nutshell,Raining very early cold morning on AD80rs (close to the limit) back end stepped out going up a banking corner.Still Drives fine tho,just wasnt worth me repairing,So decide on getting a 182 but in Silver.

So i found one and got up early on a Sat morning to head to south wales.

So this one is on 53k 2 owners & one of the very last ones & standard,previous owner also has a lovely Mars Red V6.

So plan is to get all the good bits off the cup & transfer onto the 182 then break or sell the cup as a whole car.

Couple of Photos of the Cups damage

 

Sounds about right, I believe the ast road set is 70/40 nm or 4kg at the back.

AST told me they’d run equal or higher spring rates at the back on the 5100 series. That was for a fast road set up with occasional track use. I went for 70/70 nm (7kg/7kg) but found them a bit too hard for daily use. Now they’re purely used for track, I’m on 9kg F and 100 kg rear. It’s superb.

 

Ah not sure then, they probably do different kits. I've got 70/40 ( I believe 😂), the same as the kit Pro Am are selling and think @frayz runs the same on his.

Works well enough either way and didn't feel any softer than the grams springs I had before.

Pro-am run 70 F 90 R. They used to run 90 F 110 R.

 

This kit is 70/40 as well, or are we talking about different kits?

All put together now,just to fit onto the clio and set height.

With being a full coilover on the rear now,do they still have to be pre loaded?
