Can anyone enlighten me as to what the cup packs consist of with the 182's?

Anyone recommend a company near Leics/notts?? Also what are the settings supposed to be?? Just want to get mine checked over ready for track day.

out of interest, how does the trophy suspension compare with a clio 182 on aftermarket coilovers say H&R's. which is likely to perform better. If nobody knows then I will let you know what the answer is because me and some friends are doing a trackday...obviously my trophy, a 172 cup on...

Right, I'm just about to place my order for new front discs and pads, I've decided on Brembo High Carbon discs, as they are a cheaper and better alternative than the OE discs (which are often specified as these discs anyway), but after trawling through all the brake posts, I'm still bloody...

Hey Gareth, your old steed is up for sale at a salvage yard! http://www.cit-ren.co.uk/

As I have only owned No. 259 for five days, I'm unsure whether the behaviour I'm experiencing from the car is normal and i just need to get used to it or it is being a little bit naughty..?, I'll try to explain. When accelerating hard in 2nd or 3rd, when engine gets to about 5000rpm and...

Well i've had my second Trophy for a week now and racked up 300 miles but thought i'd share a few of my thoughts and findings from the time i've been driving the car. I bought my first Trophy (328) with 5500 miles on it, and this new one (474) had 7080 when i collected it. One of the first...

One curbed speedline alloy. Luckily I video the car before and after as it has happened before at another garage different car and was denied. They marked it with some kind of blue adhesive, hopefully that means they will repair it next time and not say its was already there.

which regards to EVO's totally flawed "best drivers car" thread ... whats the best car you've ever driven / been driven in ? (trophy excluded) for myself... driven / owned ...in no order M3 (E46) Impreza (standard 210bhp no mods) lotus elise s1 106 gti crx v tech 172 mk1 mk1 golf...

My mate’s trophy had a tyre blow-out a few weeks ago on the motorway, as well as this all other tyres sustained damage. The highway agency was supposedly liable for it and are coughing up for the damage. All four tyres were replaced and the geometry was done with laser alignment...

Has anyone on here fitted a rear strut brace? If so whats the thoughts on it - e.g is it worth it and has it made any difference to the handling? Just thinking that it may or may not be a worthwhile option on a Trophy. Probably something Renault would have fitted originally though if it did...

I don't want to spoil this for anyone who hasn't got issue 99 yet, but the Renault 230 Megane Renaultsport F1 Alonso Special 2nd Win Team is shaping up very well indeed. If I was looking for a large hatch this would be my choice, even over a Focus RS. I fucking hate the stickers though, as do...

I found a laguna wiper stalk on ebay. had a look at the photos and it looks like the clio one with the intermittant function. but do u think that the electronics/connectors would be the same as the clio?

just decided to phone up and order the Spax lowering springs for the trophy (20mm) but they have been discontinued due to a lack of sales??? lol Not being funny but i said to the guy that there are only a percentage of the 551 or so trophys in the world that are gonna want to lower them...

Can anyone tell me the correct suspension settings for a trophy. F/R toe, Camber etc as I'd like to check all the settings on my car. I suspect the 60% worn tyres are contributing to the torquesteer, but would like to check before replacing them. Note that 7MAT seems to have increased...

Right, I'm about to sound like a right novice, but is the Trophy rear suspension much different to a normal 182 cup?

I'm looking to get my service done and geometry setup sorted by Mark Fish Motorsport and i've bought some of the much hyped Silkolene Pro S for the oil change, but i'm worried this will invalidate the warranty as it's not a Renault recognised part? Apparently, they need to see receipts for all...

Did my first trackday yesterday and i have to say that i enjoyed it even more than i expected too so i am counting the days down to the next one. I do have a few questions though for you guys that have done more than one and have upgraded their cars. My trophy is standard and i thought the...

Just fitted Brembo High CArbon disks with Pagid RS42 pads braided hoses and 5.1 dot. took a day to bed in did disks first with 3 lots of heat treat with full cool down and then 10x 90 Mph stops to do the pads till fade. Bite is great now and the extra G you get when stopping make you...

To all the guys who've had their alignment done... Did you need camber bolts on the front wheels? I am about to have mine dialled in with about 2.2 degrees of front camber but I am not too sure how much camber the front can adjusted utilising the stock suspension geometry. I understand...

Hi folks, rory182 from cliosport here again, following the success of my justmatz.co.uk and blueflame exhaust group buys I'm organising a tyre group buy. The PE2 tyre as fitted standard on 182 and 182 Trophy is excellent in my opinion and so I'm trying to save a little money when it comes...

Help needed please. Need to get the wheel balancing and alignment sorted on my Trophy. I know a few peeps have had it done to theirs with excellent results. So i need to get it done and im looking for somone to recommend a company to me who they know are good at this type of thing. I am...

Many thanks to Olis for recommending Aurok for my geometry check. Although using the ‘old fashioned’ method of string and gauges, they confirmed my suspicions of incorrect tracking and mismatched camber angles. The camber was obviously slightly out from the factory but the tracking...

WHATS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NORMAL SUSPENSION OR THE CUP SUSPENSION IS IT JUST SPRINGS??

I am considering a track day but really think it would be more economical in the long run to buy a set of dedicated track rims/tyres. Does anyone know if there is a set going cheaply anywhere? Also do I have to stick with the same dimensions as the current rim? If I change slightly I am...

This a bit a long post, apologies but hopefully of interest to more than just me :) So I read all of http://cliotrophy.co.uk/forum/viewtopic ... 74&start=0 very interesting, noting the follwing I am considering going for the 12mm bolts (-2 deg, 0.00 toe-out) but am now thinking about...

can anyone tell me the exact differences between a trophy ,182 and 182 cup....no suprise the dealers have chucked all the old brochures and havent much of a clue about anything technical cheers
