Does look rather a mess that one, cost a fortune to put it back to standard form with all the important Trophy bits, very much doubt Sach's are present. Wonder what no. it is? hard to tell with Trendlines missing...

Found these on ebay, full set up for grabs ;-) brand new PE2's unsure of date code: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/205-45R16-MICHELIN-PILOT-EXALTO-BRAND-NEW-PAIR-OF-TYRES-/122159294800?hash=item1c7142e950:g:f04AAOSwCGV...

Sorry to hear that fella, I had a bad experience with the caliper from Tim Finch and now you've got stitched up with a knackered gearbox, I should have posted my avoid comment sooner.

PS3's are the closest match you can get to the exalto's as these are no longer made and getting on now. Cant be may Trophies still running exaltos now, got a full set of PS3's on mine.

If O/S pads have worn twice as much as N/S then either the sliders are sticking or caliper was not set up right when fitted.

Rear calipers dont do that much compared to the fronts, how long have the rear discs been on? If they keep surface rusting then are cleaned up once or twice a week they perhaps thats causing them to be pitted rather than being used daily?!

Ben's old Trophy ;-) looks very clean and sweet.

What a waste, hope they didnt leave the handbrake on lol.

Hmm not good, bought a rear caliper from Tim Finch on ebay, fitted it and was faulty as handbrake mechanism wouldnt set up correctly. Claims caliper was fully reconditioned and had only been on car for a few thousand miles. He said send it back, so took it off the Trophy sent it back recorded...

On 79972 so bound to hit 80k tomorrow.

Sounds like clutch release bearing is worn and sticking, does it crunch when selecting reverse? (even when doing it very slowly/carefully) Could try replacement clutch cable as they dont get any better with age, sounds like clutch has just about had it and they is an internal gearbox issue...

The Magnetti Morelli ones are spot on, fit well and do the job for £21 delivered cant argue with that, had mine on the car over a year no issues whatsoever.

Black circles are showing stock on ebay £94.39 each delivered, or Wheelbase in Manchester again on ebay set of 4 delivered £445.00.

Believe from the Facebook group that #000 is owned by Mike Kingsbury, complete original example except rear exhaust silencer on 82k miles with Renault FSH and invoice from when Renault UK sold it to previous owner, HT05 ???.

You probably wont be able to source PS3 83V's unless maybe from abroad. The PS3's available have been the 87 W XL's however they seem to be drying up, did see on ebay 4 for sale in Manchester £445.00 delivered.

Ahh cool, how much are a pair? cheers

Ah, where can replacement gaitors be sourced from? Following my 'eventful' week my Sach's need re-building and sending off to BG again.

Maybe, had this on mine and found cv grease on front spined hubs where wheel speed sensor/ABS sensors monitors wheel speed so maybe worth a look.

Ahh, good to hear fella I live between Wymondham & Attleborough however mostly in Norwich work etc. The Magentti Morelli boot struts are good, got a pair £21.00 delivered ;-). Random that 413 & 414 are now that close, mine originates from Inverness in Scotland and believe yours was south...

Ah cool mate, you live in Norfolk too? Saw it a couple of months ago, was out of tax however didnt know it was up for sale, looked clean though. What No. is it? :-)

Got a Focal component kit in my R5GTT and was impressed with the sound quality. My Trophy came with no rear speakers and as retaining OE head unit bought some cheap and cheerful FLI Under Ground 13cm 2 way coaxial speakers for the rear £15 from Wilco, not amazing however do the job.

Get a windscreen wiper arm puller for about £5 if you havent already got one/borrow one and adjust it slightly on the splines. If it slips back down again then its a wiper motor issue or spines in the ar are shot.

Great work mate, how much out of interest is O/S/F wheel arch liner with flap to cover belts area? Are the little torque bolts still available too?

A guy in Ipswich had it, orginally from London. I did see this for sale last year needing a few bits and pieces, 96k on the clock. I own #414.

Thanks guys, Ill have a play and adjust them.

I remember reading a post somewhere on here about the Sach's when they are unpinned. How many clicks are they adjustable by? Is the standard setting in the centre of - & +? I take it the yellow dots/markings are where you can set them to standard setting by aligning the yellow dots/marks? Cheers :-)

Here you go, important info on No. 46 http://www.cliotrophy.co.uk/forum/showthread.php/53341-046

I bet they do, bit more subtle than red. Just seems a shame to fit them as they are then they will end up going a dark dirty silver, then rusty colour. Still fancy red at the moment though.

Had a result with new front brake calipers, found new Aut-X calipers on eBay from Online Automotive, the pair £124 delivered. They are new fully rebuilt Renault Lucas items with 54mm pistons, also sourced new sliders/pad carriers £35.56 each delivered from Car Parts In Motion on eBay. Really...
