So decided to fit some new exhaust brackets today on the 182 and snapped 2 bolts , every bolt was a pain in the ass, don't think the garage that fitted my exhaust and brackets used any copper slip.
Anyways any idea where I can buy the black brackets that hold on the exhaust brackets??
The price between them isn't worlds apart and the gains you get from the 438's are better than the 428's from all the graphs I've seen on here so I can't get my head around why if you were goin to fit cams why anyone would buy the 428's.
Eibach sportlines and apparently 172 cup shocks fit the 182 non cup pack.
The springs made a massive difference to the handling, I hated the standard springs.
If I was getting a second car it would be a 172 cup no doubt, infact I wish I bought I 172 cup instead of a 182. Apart from the exhaust and price difference there is nothing between a 172 or a 182. Buy a 172 and spend the left over cash on refreshing parts and a few handling mods.
My friend has a 172 totally stripped out, literally nothing but a bucket seat and my 182 has everything in there and a set of 438 cams and his 172 is just as quick if not even has the edge so stripping your car does make a difference but f**k using his 172 as a daily.
