After having talked to Bilstein, Sachs and other suppliers my offer possible was as described above.
Why black repro dampers from Bilstein? Because for silver they have to buy silver colour + dress the machine.
Just the costs for this in the factory has 4 - 5 digits.
Sachs Racing themself...
Just three questions:
1. Which pads and discs do you use? Are they worn?
2. When was the last time you changed your brake fluid?
3. Any road salt on the car? Any dirt on the pads / discs?
4. Have you checked if the calipers work?
I would check brake fluid as said before.
@MarcB: Already in the process!

- Bilstein
- ZF Sachs Performance
- Renault Sport Webshop / Business Development Specialist

Hi Andy,
as I am organising the group buy for the new rear dampers, I just may need some help. We will get a fair quote from Bilstein for the dampers produced same spec as Sachs as a small quality series. Do you know one of the people around here who could organise the single distribution in...
I will clarify costs this week and come back to you. Please proceed registration as I will be able to get a good quote for you. I am waiting for a good offer from my second supplier (an automotive oem).
Update for you all:
I received a first cost calculation today quoting a price that shocked me. It was so high, that I am ashamed to mention. I didn’t expect that. I am trying my best to get an alternative offer as I don’t want to give you an offer that everyone would throw old Renault parts on...

Dear Members
as a friend of mine ownes no. 50/50 of the left handed T´s and I owned a black 182 with full T suspension I know and love the T.
No. 50 / 50 needs near rear dampers. As I have a very well known motorsport suspension professional who revised my suspension,
the person will offer to...
Have you ckecked the mass ribbons, especially the one attached the gear box on the Co-driver‘s side (behind the wheel arch)? It caused my car not to start several times until we had a look.
My Ps3‘s came damaged by the supplier because they were stored the wrong way..
RT‘s give superb wet grip and are a pleasure to drive on b-roads and Trackdays. Eben After 25 minutes of Maximum attack on Bilster Berg Track the rt‘s did not fade or understeer!!
I recommend dullinger.co.at
He did. my dampers. 60.000 faultless miles since 2013. This guy builds the Suspension for BMW M Racing Cars and superbikes.
I paid 450€.
The Sachs rears are definetly "harder" than the OEM Cup Pack Dampers! Just had a back to back comparison. The car is much more precise to drive and tail happy with the Sachs Trophy dampers than with the usual cup.
Here is a duplicate number ! Car is located in Germany (not my car) and I saw the official Renault papers and HPI-Check from GB
that prove that it is authentic and an original T! Papers also contain the Renault repair / service history of the car.
Renault also said that they cannot match number...
Buy a set of used Clio 172 Ph1, 15" wheels. Put some Dunlop WinterSport 2 on (250,00€) and get happy!!

Tire size 195/50/15
Wheel data: 7x15, offset 43 or 42
