#32: Re: The GiT 180 progress thread, aka KiKi Author: wagsy206, Location: Coatbridge, LanarkshirePosted: Sun Aug 22, 2010 11:55 am ---- I don't think there are many plans for this dave as Brian is focusing more on his 309 Goodwood and miami blue 309 gti.
#33: Re: The GiT 180 progress thread, aka KiKi Author: Brian, Location: VVT Land, FifePosted: Sun Aug 22, 2010 12:39 pm ---- AusScare: Are cars in Australia Right or Left hand drive?? You can't get the ones for right hand drive cars any more (although i THINK i know of one person selling a set) Left hand drive ones seem to be fairly available, but where i do not know apart from ebay.
No plans for this at all Dave, just enjoying it as it is. If anything it would be engine modifications but i couldn't justify the thousands on supercharging it as doing something similar in a 309 but with a gti-6 engine would be much faster and in a better handling car, not to mention that it would cost less to do and that's including the gti-6 engine itself.
As for styling again the money spent euro-ing this would look rather pants in comparison to what's already out there and been done. That white 206 with the reg S*** GUM already has the wheels i wanted so defeats the purpose, not to mention they're heavy, plus slamming the car would end up making it handle like a dog doing a poo.
I must admit though, i still want to put coilovers on it, but at the moment it just sits sooo nice and it does have a well sorted suspension already.
#34: Re: The GiT 180 progress thread, aka KiKi Author: Brian, Location: VVT Land, FifePosted: Mon Dec 20, 2010 2:38 pm ---- I've actually bought something for this car! I've got some Ultra LED white side lights coming too, but I've got a funny feeling they'll look chacket!
Bought these headlight protectors because I don't fancy footing the bill/trying to find black mask valeo's should the get chipped. Not bad for £23 delivered brand new
#35: Re: The GiT 180 progress thread, aka KiKi Author: Malteaser-xO, Location: FifePosted: Mon Dec 20, 2010 2:46 pm ---- It's my birthday today, not Kiki's.... Get your prezzie priorities right Brian! Haha
Headlight protectors are a good move though x
#36: Re: The GiT 180 progress thread, aka KiKi Author: Brian, Location: VVT Land, FifePosted: Mon Dec 20, 2010 2:49 pm ---- Cheers! I've written you an IOU for 1 x cuddle for your birthday x
#37: Re: The GiT 180 progress thread, aka KiKi Author: Andrew, Location: Black Country Ay IPosted: Mon Dec 20, 2010 4:10 pm ---- I haven't seen headlight protectors actually on these cars, I would like a pair but don't know if they look noticeable once on
#38: Re: The GiT 180 progress thread, aka KiKi Author: Brian, Location: VVT Land, FifePosted: Mon Dec 20, 2010 4:56 pm ---- I've seen one car and it didn't look too bad. Function over looks to be honest, i'll take them off if i was going to shows/car meetings etc. They just clip on and off.
#39: Re: The GiT 180 progress thread, aka KiKi Author: Brian, Location: VVT Land, FifePosted: Tue Dec 21, 2010 10:57 am ---- They look alright I think! Bargain for protecting the lights - i'll be stress free with the thought of them getting chipped now
Plugs are for the service in a few weeks time, the car's only done 20k, so i'll get a stamp in the book for that. £13 for plugs on trade is awesome
I'm currently waiting on discs and the ferodo premier front pads to arrive. I didn't realise that the price for discs on euro car parts were for 1! So i've decided to go for brembo discs in the end since they're slightly cheaper than ECP and peace of mind that they're brembo's too I suppose. Then i'll fit them when i have a week off between jobs. Badly needing done! Can I trust myself to fit discs n pads...hmmm
Can anyone confirm that the bosch super 4's is number 522 and not 520?? I don't always trust halfords' system. TA!
#41: Re: The GiT 180 progress thread, aka KiKi Author: Brian, Location: VVT Land, FifePosted: Tue Jan 04, 2011 4:47 pm ---- More stuff has arrived
And meet....BremboFerodo Kitteh!!
I'll get all this fitted next week
#42: Re: The GiT 180 progress thread, aka KiKi Author: SAB206, Location: North WestPosted: Tue Jan 04, 2011 5:15 pm ---- Yeah plugs are 522 mate
#44: Re: The GiT 180 progress thread, aka KiKi Author: SAB206, Location: North WestPosted: Tue Jan 04, 2011 5:22 pm ---- That is a fat tub of Copper Grease, i bet you still have that when you're 42.
#45: Re: The GiT 180 progress thread, aka KiKi Author: Brian, Location: VVT Land, FifePosted: Tue Jan 04, 2011 5:28 pm ---- I hope so! A wee tube was £4 or something but i thought, I'll probs use all of that on the discs and behind the discs then on backs of pads but i'll need more for future!
