    Brand New Sachs. (Group Buy)

    Be extra careful and don't rush. If it does not go as planned postpone it. The adjustment shaft is fragile, if you can't get the grub screw totally out by unscrewing or drilling, do not lever under the knob thinking it will break loose, the shaft will break and will be a costly repair. I know...

    Brand New Sachs. (Group Buy)

    It's screwed in with lot of loctite on the threads for this one I guess. This is what Renault Sport does to lock the adjuster and this one won't budge even after heating it up. I had one like that on an original set, only way to get it out was to drill it through step by step from 2 to 4mm bit...

    Brand New Sachs. (Group Buy)

    Actually only one was easy, the other one cannot be depinned easily as the grub screw is loctited in and cannot be removed even with high heat applied to it... I will see that later and will let it undisturbed. I will use them at original setting for now.

    Brand New Sachs. (Group Buy)

    If that's any clue I can confirm as I've just depinned the first one that the damper is locked at 22 clicks like the original trophy's.

    Brand New Sachs. (Group Buy)

    Received on Wednesday. Brand new but some scratches from storage, no box. Pinned as expected.

    Listings were modified but you can buy either, there are exactly the same 60mm bolt spacing

    Brand New Sachs. (Group Buy)

    Depend on where the knob set screw ends up... On one it was accessible, on the other it was just against the strut so was a pain to get the allen key in plus the set screws are loctited so need to heat them before removing and not too much or you will mar the coating on the knob (it's more like...

    Brand New Sachs. (Group Buy)

    OK, received confirmation, 2 different listings but same part! Twingo version with scraper seal, 60mm spacing, pinned adjuster

    Brand New Sachs. (Group Buy)

    Not sure... He confirmed they're both 60mm and he changed the description. I just asked him to confirm both versions had the scraper seal and pinned adjuster

    Brand New Sachs. (Group Buy)

    He has not replied back but the clio description just changed to say "avec chassis sport (60mm)" (cup version 60mm bolt spacing) :) so I guess these really must be the original trophy version and the other is the twingo version. You will see when you receive them if they also have the scraper...

    I haven't got a reply back yet... This is weird then that both are 60mm but if he claims they are fine then

    Not really sure which is which so I just asked him to update the site with proper description

    Brand New Sachs. (Group Buy)

    They are legitimate, Optimiz access struck a deal with renault sport. He's bought back remaining stock of Twingo R1, R2, clio cup racer parts etc. These are genuine but be careful he is listing both 54mm and 60mm bolt spacing on the site but as dablk mentionned both say "pinned" because he just...

    Recaro trendlines ??

    I not too long ago covered in 3M carbon the back seat shell on my recaros and took some pictures. Hope this helps (and yes you can find cheaper trendline from mitsu evo or honda accord, they are the same). You can modify easily as the covering goes over foam and plastic shell, both easy to trim...

    Reverting to standard induction system.

    Coud just be a soft corrugated hose from the box to the bottom of the wing. No, not 100 but 50 which I think is already overpriced for what it is. http://www.allcarpartsfast.co.uk/renault/renault-8200109631-pipes-air/

    Reverting to standard induction system.

    82 00 109 631 but overpriced! in the meantime, better to fabricate some hose to catch fresh air below that leave port open on the filter sucking hot air from engine compartment. Don't plug it, size of only the second hose will restrict airflow and this one is exposed to hot air as well

    Springs

    Springs

    Do you own both? Curious if you could measure coil thickness and spacing for each coil. Really look like the same spring with terminal coil cut off.

    Braided brake hoses, recomendations needed.??

    I prefer Ktec that has the line protected with a plastic sleeve over the braided part. Goodrige standard braided line has the braided part exposed.

    182 vs Trophy- can you tell the difference?

    For road use except when entertaining a quick joy ride, the 182 cup setup is perfectly alright.

    182 vs Trophy- can you tell the difference?

    Yes I made back to back comparison but the other way round. I own a 182 cup on which I installed freshly refurbished sachs dampers in exchange for brand new cup dampers. The ride is firmer granted but the main difference is that you can corner a lot faster with the sachs, it seems that whatever...

    OEM Trophy Springs
