Looks real nice and tidy, agree with others though it needs straights n fogs to finish it off.

180 Skirts
R45 headlights
New wheels, not straights though, never liked them.

Thanks folks!

It does actually scrubs up quite well. Back bumper could do with a respray but bodily its probs in better condition than the old one.

It came with a poorly fitted piperx open cone so it actually sounds quite meaty. My old 180 was very subdued so its nice to have some induction roar. Its quite nippy in the lower range and I dont do many miles like I did in the v6 so im not missing the extra power (yet) :) Really needs a tf wheel though.

Aye my mates old 120 that had the open cone did sound very meaty so least ye have that;)

One thing...does it have a dodgy 'tribal' decal on the back windae?:pirate2:

Craig
05-09-10, 06:21 PM

Criag..if you get a tf wheel I have a spare airbag you can have it is the newer version with the badge on it rather than stamped into the rubber centre.

Oh yes! Totally agree there Mick. I loved my zr in tb and when I got the 180 when ever I saw a TB ZS I wished mine was TB. It just looks gorgeous when clean. Plus its a lot easier getting body parts in TB rather than tahiti.

Stick with the 110 dude!!! not much difference between that and the 120 to be honest! My Bro has a 110 and it seems to rev easier and be just as quick as a 120.

Thing is with the 180 is the tax price and MPG.........it is damn fast for sure but if you want economy you need to keep it below 3000rpm which is too hard and quiet for my liking!!! yet you can rev yours and struggle to make it drink more than a 180 ;)

You've done the right thing my friend trust me! even if you got Gs VVC conversion done you are quids in in my opinion.
