Anyone recommend anywhere in the chesire/staffordshire area to get the tracking done? I'm a bit dubious to take it too one of the big tyre/exhaust companies as generally they are rubbish at everything!

I quite like them both, i say keep it :)

Looks lovely, immaculate!

Need to change the exhaust but apart from that i would keep it how it is, think it looks a lot better with the boot handle on rather than fully smoothed.

That picture of the boot looks miles better than the others you posted, looks half decent. Kudos to you for doing it all yourself :) Removing the rear door handles can help with a five door as well :)

Re: Sir_Dave's Trophy. The 182 on (nearly) 182k ... That looks really good, didn't think i would like gold wheels with the red of a trophy but it suits it really well. Think yours will look even better Dave, 15" 2118 in gold will defninately look :cool:

By far the best project on here. Hope you do get it all finished, for your own sanity if nothing else lol :)

Haha no chance, its an awsome car. Look forward to seeing what else gets done too it :D

Yeah i'm not keen on getting the hazard panel done, i think that the dash strips and wheel/gear knob inserts are as far as i will go on the carbon inside. I've actualy got one in the garage but my car scrapes on my drive as it is, not sure putting it on is wise lol

Epic content, never has a thread title been more true! This car is epic, love it :cool:

I'm thinking about doing that with all the standard bits i took off, then i have them if i ever want a bit of a change.

Cheers fellas :cool: Martin - I have had a couple of bits done in vinyl wrap from someone else and i just didn't like the look of it, seemed to plasticy for my liking. I can imagine that stone chips will be a slight problem for the fog surrounds but everything else will be ok, if they get too...

Ordered a few bits and bobs from Chris, just got them all fitted due to today being the first nice day since i got them. Pictures aren't great sorry and the car is filthy but hopefully they still give an idea of how brilliant the pieces are. Fog Light Surround Gear Knob Insert Rear Bumper...

Guess there must be something up then if the two of you have them and have no noise at all. Definately will be checking the wheel bearings tomorrow.

Hmmm maybe, doesn't really sound like wheel bearings but it is something that i haven't actualy thought about so would be good to check :)

Yep, pressures are fine. Checked to see if they are all fitted in the right direction, no excessive wear on them and they are not catching on anything from what i can see. It's really starting to become unbearable, so much so that if i can't find a cure i may have to shell out for a whole new...

I bought a full set of Hankook Evo tyres after reading reviews and seeing that people rated them as a good mid range tyre and good in both the dry and the wet. I have had them on the car for around 3-4k miles now and have found them to be a good tyre in terms of grip level. What is starting to...

Blue all day long out of the poll choices. I would be torn between the blue and Alien Green personally though.

I would go with an RS192 or a piper as above, best exhausts for the 182 without spending an absolute fortune.

I bought one from the website about a month ago, arrived very quickly so they must of had it in stock. Think they had around 10 in stock when i bought mine. Brillant bit of kit, once it's fitted right that is lol

RS192, i have one and i have to say while it was a little tricky to fit its an excellet exhaust. Not too loud at all, gives a nice sporty tone when accelerating hard but when i am driving normally i don't even know it's there really :)

NWP is definately NOT quiet, i wouldn't bother. I have an RS192 exhaust and while the fitment has taken a bit to get right the noise is perfect, is only slightly louder than standard. I have no experience of the Janspeed but i think it is on the same levels as the RS192. As others have said...

Sounded way better before to me am afraid :)

Looks very nice :) What ET are the wheels? And do you get any rubbing with them?

Good for you. Obviously you have never made a mistake in your life or had something go wrong that you didn't expect! I ave used Top Marque before and i rate there work, i think they are very good. What you have been through i would say was unfortunate but i think they have been fair and only...

If i'm honest it looks like a load of shite and belongs on the scrap heap.

Why not search for the different makes and read through all the threads on coilovers and then make up your own mind. I do think that you will find that if you spend that little bit extra you will end up with a worth while product. I guess it depends on what you really want though, if you just...

I was a bit unsure of adding the white side strips in myself, the rest i think is a must. With all the white in the stickers i think the side strips could work but it could also be a step too far lol. Leaving the black plastic alone on the front bumper will break up the stickers and give a...

Do both front wings, the bonnet, the lower part of the front bumper, the boot and the wing wirrors. Kawasaki green for the steelies and the side strips in white.

Out of the two i would personnaly go with the KTec ones as there seems to be less negative points about the setup than with the GAZ ones. I think they are quite good for the money and once setup properly work well, just a bit of a pain to setup well from what i have read.
