#4: Re: new 180 track build Author: JamieM, Posted: Mon Jul 25, 2011 5:01 pm ---- Much better than the 138, should be rapid with all that s**t (interior out lol) stock seats weigh a tone! Do team 180 proud and show them how it's done on track!
#5: Re: new 180 track build Author: shell-vt, Location: durhamPosted: Mon Jul 25, 2011 5:25 pm ---- stock seats are mega heavy dont no what weighs more, them or the car?! Just cant wait to get me bits and bobs fitted cage etc

prefer gt bumpers also the front makes more room for oil cooler ect
#10: Re: new 180 track build Author: JamieM, Posted: Wed Jul 27, 2011 6:19 pm ---- Oh nooooo not a GT bumper!
I don't mind them but see it as abit of a waste of time, spend the money on performance enhancements
#11: Re: new 180 track build Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Wed Jul 27, 2011 11:46 pm ---- You can get an oil cooler behind the standard sports bumper perfectly easily.
#12: Re: new 180 track build Author: shell-vt, Location: durhamPosted: Thu Jul 28, 2011 1:29 am ---- Still more air flow with gt bumper .....
#13: Re: new 180 track build Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Thu Jul 28, 2011 5:44 am ---- Not sure how you work that out.
#14: Re: new 180 track build Author: shell-vt, Location: durhamPosted: Thu Jul 28, 2011 5:56 am ---- more curculating with oil cooler ect not as crammed in with standard sport bumper

He is right, the chin on he bumper gives it more room instead of beiing cramped up together!
