New pictures up now. Next step is lowering. I want to do it on a budget and I am looking for a height of around 50mm front 40mm back. Would this height cause any problems with speed bumps etc? Opinions on car welcome:
Also MOT yesterday. Passed with no advisories
I'm doing the same with Eibach sport lines and torsion lowering to make it even. You will need to slow right down for bumps but I do anyway with mine on standard suspension!
Ok cheers mate. Yeah i go over speed bumps at 20 at the moment because of the stiff suspension on the 180.
Whats with the debadged sp grill badge? I cant see the SP bit?!? :S
No its not there. It was missing when i bought the car so i dunno?? tried finding a replacement with no luck
Ive got a spare one somewhere if your interested as I put the new one on when I bought the fixing kit from pug

I'll put a video and pics up when I get the Janspeed. Hopefully Friday or Monday can't wait. Does anyone have a Janspeed cat back? Whats it like on long journeys? Just wondering because I've got a 300 mile journey to do next month. Will I need ear plugs lol?
I do, but it's with a Race cat + Typhoon induction kit, so it's quite loud.. If you keep the revs down and put the music volume up you're fine And a 300 mile journey in the 180 is gona cost a fortune haha

I've got it fitted now. Pics page 2. Noise isn't too loud so I'm very happy. Yeah 300 miles in a 180 pretty much empties the tank lol

#42: Re: Liams GTi180 Author: LiamGTi180, Location: OxfordPosted: Mon Oct 24, 2011 11:47 am ---- Ok so was going to get it lowered but now the car needs a new battery and front speakers are blown. So have to postpone that for another month now.
#43: Re: Liams GTi180 Author: shell-vt, Location: durhamPosted: Mon Oct 24, 2011 12:43 pm ---- mine looked like that once over..
#44: Re: Liams GTi180 Author: LiamGTi180, Location: OxfordPosted: Wed Oct 26, 2011 12:24 pm ---- New battery fitted and starting perfectly now. Gutted about having to postpone the lowering. Think it needs lowering more now with wheels dunno why.
Simota Carbon Intake now bought. Cant wait to fit it now!
