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...

Firstly, a 182 Milltek exhaust. There is a dent in one of the boxes on the centre section but no blows or leaks. Will clean up like new. Please note the bad hanging is because the car was knackered, not the exhaust. £275 Collected Then a KTR 182 Sports cat. Had originally planned on fitting...

Hi guys, I have recently purchased some Cup Racer ducts off a guy on Clio Sport who has been fabricating them from scratch. I have spent the last week or so wet n dry sanding, spraying and finally fitting this weekend. I am really pleased with the results and think they will work really well...

The standard air box seems to have two inlets for air. One with a cold air feed pipe that disappears somewhere underneath the nearside headlamp and another inlet without any cold air feed. Is this right ? Still having trouble with my T :(

Hi guys Itching to go out and experience my first track day in the Trophy; I race karts nationally and have tested at Palmersport a couple of times (including the Clio Cups) so looking forward to taking my own car out! Would you recommend me purchasing a different set of rims and tyres...

Can anybody who has AST top mounts advise on the rough value of full castor? I've read on clio sport that it's advised to run them at max castor (from respected people not the usual idiots) but from what i can find the Trophy has more castor than other sport models as standard so maybe this...

Hi 1. As per title. Looking for a definitive answer on what is adjustable on a Trophy (i.e. without using camber bolts/shims etc). I have had a look around and cannot find an answer. 2. Also, does anyone know if the Trophy has the same standard alignment settings as 172/182s? I went to a...

as above will it fit, as a replacement for the standard airbox? before you say anything ive tried asking just this on Meganesport.net but they couldn't answer me. does anyone on here know.

hi, Before I sold my Trophy, I fitted 182 Full Fat rear seats and door cards. I now have in my loft a set of IMMACULATE condition Original front and rear door cards, as well as a set of IMMACULATE Original rear seats. I don't think the rears have ever been sat on. Seems a shame to skip them -...

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

I recent brought a 1.2 dynamique 51plate for my first car, Basically im aiming for it to look like a Clio Sport Replica , Colour Coding, Rs spoiller, Rs Grill, 182 Alloys Etc... Not so long ago i purchased a Peco Full System stainless steel exhaust (Cat-back) And what a mistake i made The...

Hi, Have been deciding on weather or not to re fit my standard exhaust. Only thing is; it was cut in half to remove it, the renault specialist assured me that there is a collar or sleeve that you can buy to seamlessly go over the join on re-fit?? any ideas where I would find one?

Currently umming & ahhing about buying an e46 M3 in the next 6 months, so may sell the Trophy at some point ... i have absolutely no idea whats its worth though due to the laughable mileage. FYI, i know whats its worth in bits, but not as a whole, so im just thinking in case someone wanted one...

I've been trauling through suspension threads for the last hour and can't find an answer. Where does everyone buy them from? And, What is 'revalving'? Is it just matching the damping settings to OE spec or is it something specialist that the likes of MF would do? Thanks

I know every track setup is different, but I thought it would be interesting to hear what readings people have got from noise tests at the track. My silenced Orbisoud with it's sports cat was 92db @ Bedford with 4/4.5k revs I think.

I have loved my Trophy for many years but now it is time to sell. Number 370/500. I had a clio expert take a look today and they said it was great to see a totally standard vehicle, an honest car. Serviced annually, recently cared for my M&N motors (renault specialists) full service in...

Hi guys. Last week I had my wheels refurbished at the Wheel Repair Centre in Preston, they have done a fantastic job i'm really pleased with the results. They were shot blasted and powdercoated in Anthracite, they are not an exact match as the original paint but are very close, maybe a shade...

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, I've recently had the front and rear dampers replaced/rebuilt as well as the top mounts. Its going back in the shop tomorrow to have the ball joints replaced as well ready for a full geo alignment on saturday. The guy at the geo place mentioned the track rod ends can sometimes be a...

FOR SALE - Connects2 Ipod adapter. This kit fits into the the rear of your standard clio radio with a lead that goes into your glove box. Then simply connect your ipod. You can now flick through your tracks via the radio or on your steering wheel controller. Unfortunately it doesn't show on the...

I've been talked into getting some camber bolts and adding some -ve camber on the front of the Trophy :) At the ring last year that car felt absolutely fantastic but did lack a bit of grip I thought. I'm sure the camber on the front would go a long way towards fixing that but why do people...

Just had the front dampers back from BG motorsports, and replaced the rear dampers and top mounts at the same time. Imagine my surprise to hear creaking still coming from the front suspension somewhere [-X I've done some digging around on here and people suggest replacing the ball joints at...

For Sale. Scorpion RS192 Exhaust System (Cat Back). The system has been fitted to my Trophy from new for 2 years (approx. 10,000 miles). The centre section is 6 months old as it was replaced under warranty. Very good fitment, however, the centre section/back box join is a tight fit as this is...

I'm sure most of you attempt or have attempted to carry out work on your own car before, mechanical minded or not. I for one have very little experience working on cars but can't resist having a go with a 'how hard can it be attitude'. As of yet I haven't caused any major damage (touch wood)...

Good morning all. normally i enjoy the attention i get when i drive the T around however last night, my pride and joy landed me in hot water and now needing new parts. driving home last night back to my student house with friends, we were waiting at lights (those of you who know southampton...

Hi After having some trouble with a misfire, I took my car to a garage and had the whole ignition system changed. It turns out they didn't replace the HT leads like for like and the ones I have now, though working fine, are quite a loose fit. My question is, should I replace these with the...

After trying to buy one for years!! I finally managed to get my grubby mitts on an MSV cage, so I trundled off to Oxford services on Saturday morning, & came back with a shiny new toy. Reason for getting a bolt-in as opposed weld? Well, I wasn’t happy about having buckets, harnesses and no...

Just noticed fastchip offer a Decat overrun calibration for 29euros. Just wondering if anyone has any info on it, will it have any performance increases over the standard 98ron cal upgrade they offer for 10euros? Or is it just a bit pointless?
