New valves fitted.

Nice one! I did this with my dampers, a bead of black silicone. Also, the spring cups I use are stainless, they pull out quite easily if press the ball in and 'hook' it out.

I could do Rik... but maybe not just yet.

It was the scraper seal and bushing that fit in the top cap. Its OK as I've sourced alternatives now but thanks for the offer :)

The second pair shot blasted and powder coated, I'm just waiting on some shrader valves and some o rings. I've mainly bought these to copy a few parts like the adjuster body as all the sets I've seen are pretty corroded, it will also make it easier to de pin. But the main reason is to get...

Just an update on my progress. It was a bit last minute but I did Cadwell today in the T. I didn't get time to blast and paint the springs so just stuck them on as they are but never mind. Dampers performed flawlessly and I ended up running 27 clicks once I'd had a fiddle with tyres pressures...

Bit more progress. Removing the adjuster in one piece lasted all of about 30 seconds. New adjuster and index plungers. Drilled out to 6mm, counter sunk and pressed in. Fitted but the grub screw I fitted was too long. Now to tackle the other side.

Sounds silly but the colour match is the only reason I haven't had my wheels done yet, all the other refubs I've seen haven't looked the right colour. But from the photos yours look right... Or that could just be my screen. I would ask what paint code they used.

Ive been doing alot of research into what pressure to run. There is so much to damper set up I could write (copy and paste) a book. What I really need is someone willing to stick a pressure gauge on their dampers and post the results ;) From all my research 150psi seems to be the pressure I'll try.

Stripped these down the other day. They are in really good condition, oil was still fairly clear. Very corroded though and a part of the spring cup has rusted so much its pretty thin. Photos also show where the compression adjuster is set from the factory. I'll be careful this time when...

Me too.

Collected these the other day from Olliep, great to meet you and have a quick look at your Megane 275 Trophy :cool: They come with a different reservoir cap and upon removing the torx bolt it looks like a rubber diaphragm inside that you fill with a needle?! I wont know until I disassemble them...

Not really, its taken a while to source the right parts. After hours of internet searching and emails to bearing and seal suppliers I ended up having the piston scraper seal custom made for £6 each. Cornering Force were great as they were prepared to sell me the seals for £14 each but I couldn't...

cheers chaps, PM's your way :)

Cheers Greg, just pm'd him.

It's been a while but I forgot to take some assembly photos as I was too excited about getting them together. Only got one together as I was 2 o-rings short on the second damper so couldn't finish it.

Any members or forum users, I'll buy them if you are selling #buyallthesachs!

Mines been through 2 standard systems. If someone did a stainless performance exhaust with the same size tips as a standard system I would buy one but they all look like chav exhausts, other than the BTB. imo My current exhaust is a pattern part (those ones for sale on ebay for £195 for the...

Christ, mines only done 61k ! ££££ ;)

I doubt anyone would be looking to sell but if you don't ask. I have a standard system if anyone's returning to standard...

As per title.

I'll be selling mine fairly soon, fsh, dampers just been rebuilt and depinned, cam and aux, 12 months MOT, 62k, does have a few dint in the n/s 3/4 sadly but the rest of the bodywork is clean... wheels could do with a refurb but its reflected in the price. £5500

Yeah. Its drawn up in CAD but to do it properly it needs to be a complete replacment end cap. It could be retrofitted to the original but only when the shocks in bits... And thats a ball ache and it would be pretty expensive (circa £80 each to make it viable).

I can also supply replacement adjuster shafts too incase they are damaged during de-pinning. These are also machined from stainless steel. £15 including postage to mainland UK.

Welcome Dont bother with a rollcage, sticky tyres and some better disks and pads, cheap fun all day long. Cant go wrong with a 172 cup... But you have posted on a trophy forum...

I have 2 pairs for sale at the moment with another 10 pairs currently being machined. Supplied in the kit you will get; 2 billet adjuster knobs, 2 stainless spring plungers, 2 stainless steel grub screws and fitting instructions. They have been designed to work with the replacement spring...

Replied to your pm Jules. Just so everyone knows im machining a batch of 25 pairs as an upgrade kit.

Im a service engineer for a company who make machinery for the sandwich industry... I was a used car salesman before that. I thought about doing it but I cant get hold of replacement shafts if people needed them.

I'm currently refurbing mine myself. I had to machine a new pair of adjusters as they were very badly corroded and were damaged upon removal (I contacted BG but they could not supply the adjusters separately, only as part of their compression upgrade, circa £150 a side.) Would anybody be...
