damper

Must be in good condition with no leaks and nice gap near reservoir (message me if you need details about this!). Missed 2 sets over the weekend and think this may be my best option to avoid a potential hefty second refurb! Let me know what you've got, cash waiting. Thanks

Bored today and even although they seemed fine decided to take off the sach dampers to get them refurbed. Going to drop them off to get shot blasted this week then get them painted etc then get them sent to BG motorsport. Will put up more pics as they progress.

I'm a bit perplexed by this, within the last month or so, i've been getting loud twanging/donging noises when maneuvering. The other weekend i checked over the complete suspension, to make sure noting was loose. I found no faults, but i tried tightening the front damper assembly top nut inside...

Just thought I would do an update from a myself, a new owner member of a trophy re 131. Picked T up from Wales last Wednesday , first to see did buy! Great price but as always there is a snag, not deliberate by the seller more like the things to do when you get a second hand performance car! On...

have come across quite a few posts over time of pics of peoples front sach dampers that have just been refurbed and afterwards have went and repainted them etc but been searching there and cant find any. anyone got any links there thanks

Hello all, Does anyone know where I can get hold of the genuine Renault/Sachs stickers that are found at the bottom of every Sachs damper on a Trophy? Rhys

all, i am new to the trophy world, from previously having a 320bhp scooby this is a bit of a different story. with regards to modifications what would you all suggest i've had a browse at pictures of mods in this forum, so the usual:- Exhaust- where do i go? decat - yes or no? panel...

I don't have the aptitude, tools, inclination or time to fit a set of rear Konis myself so... Do I engage the services of my local independent garage where the mechanic was VAG-trained and looked after my VW for 8 years? Or do I take #455 to the nearest RS specialist, which I guess would be...

Bought this brilliant car earlier in the year with the intention of doing a few hill climbs sprints (see my posts on here in spring about damper rates etc) - but apart from a couple of outings it hasn't been used much so unfortunately it must go. Getting valet done at the weekend so will have...

Apologies for bringing this up again but the recent spate of comments on suspension has prompted me to post. As I see it there are three options for replacing Trophy rear dampers: a) 182 Cup dampers (£65ish) b) Renault/Sachs Trophy-specific dampers (£115ish) c) Koni adjustable dampers...

Trophy number 16 for sale, owned by same family since new, a very well maintained and looked after car. FSH with all bills including belts changed in 2010 along with front damper overhaul by BG Motorsport. Taxed and tested until May 2012. £5750. Details and photos on piston heads...

My trophy's recently started making a creaking noise which looks to be coming from the drivers side suspension. You can hear it when driving over any slight bumps in the road and especially over speed bump. Also today noticed what must be a slow puncture as the pressure on this tyre was down to...

Lol I know this is a longshot My dampers have been away for refurb for over 3 weeks now and I get a different excuse everyday. I am doing a trackday at donnington this Monday 25Th July. I need to borrow some dampers for the day :D Obviously would pay if they were damaged and happy to pay...

I know Renault seem to get bad reviews amongst people regarding the reliability but during my ownership I have found the Trophy really reliable. I've owned it 3 years and 4 months and had the following issues... Failed Coolant Termperature Sensor Failed Damper Seal Failed CV Boot Clip Thats...

Trophy was handling like a bag of crap, noticed a bouncy damper so had it rebuilt at BG a few weeks ago. Also the exalto's on the front had come to their usable end so replaced them with the Pilot Sport 3's. Anyway, Trophy's feeling a bit weird in some corners, i cant really describe it, its...

It may just be me being worried or the road angle or something, but i seem to feel my front n/s bounces more than the o/s on flat full road width speed bumps where i can feel both rebound at the same time more or less, and there is a little knocking noise every now and then, i know the knocking...

I'm after a set of either standard Trophy dampers or Konis. Cash waiting. Cheers, Rhodri

As promised i have a few photos of before and after of the dampers once shot blasted and sprayed. If anyone else is thinking of doing this then from my own experiences i would suggest you look into building up the lost material once the rust and corrosion has been removed, the guy who done mine...

Hi all now i know this has been covered many times before however i have a query that as far as i can see no one has asked. Now im getting the front dampers refurbished middle of May, im currently running standard springs but im looking into the rears. Im unhappy with how the Trophy likes to...

Good day chaps! My recent MOT revealed a leaking driver's side damper. So it's my intention to whip the shocks off, send them to BG for refurb, off which i have just emailed. Just a note, I emailed Mark Fish first, who basically said use BG as they have the market covered for this job. While...

Hi folks, I know there have been several threads on this topic and I have also looked on cliosport. I had been thinking I would get new ball joints without the wishbone and fit them to my trophy and at the same time fit uprated poly bushes to the wishbone. After reading on cliosport the...

As per title 4 x Springs (-15mm -20mm): Rear Koni Adjustables - (Normal not re-valved) Never fitted, still in the box and packaging as sent by Mark Just looking to get back what i paid for them, which was £464. This included the 10% group buy discount Post or PM

Used rear Sachs damper/s. Mines leaking, if anyone has one spare they could send until I get a pair of new ones it'd greatly apprechiated. Obiously would pay for it and postage :) dm me

WANTED NEARSIDE FRONT DAMPER/SHOCK. Now i know some of you guys have some spares hidden away in a dusty box under the stairs [-X , how about some cash in your wallet in exchange. Just the near side (passenger)front shock only any condition fit for a refurb will do. Cash waiting. PM me

13k miles, major service 2 weeks ago, dampers checked and are fine, immaculate condition both inside and out. completely standard no modifications. how much is it worth ??

OK, so last night i got the Geo done by a mates garage. Yes, they are a bodyshop, but when you are the authorised repairer for Lotus, Aston, Ferrari, Lamborghini & Pagani, you probably know how to set up a clio lol ... So, effectively, since we fitted the front suspension, the Toe has been out...

Hi, I test drove a Megane 250 Cup and Clio Sport 200 back to back today and I can't decide which is better. The car will mainly be a daily driver with occasional trackday use. The handling of both is great but the Megane might be a better car to live with day to day (if only it looked better)...

Hi, just bought 426, and pretty sure the drivers shock needs refurbing, bit of bounce and very crashy. will get refurbed, but my question is, I need to use the car (looking for number 2 vehicle at the mo) am I ok to use the trophy in the meantime? Or will this further add to the shock damage and...
