Having been snowed in two years running, I'm thinking my trophy has a profound disslike to snow. Ok, I know it is not designed for it. I love my Trophy, but this gets me down every year. My dad has a VW Passat oil burner (No I say!) and has no problems what so ever. So people, what cars are good...
I plan on getting much stiffer springs in the future anyway. Probably 400Lb ish. Mark fish is going to sort me out :mrgreen:
I want helper springs etc if poss. Anyone used these before?
I'm thinking about the Mark Fish ones. Does anyone know which ones he uses? Are they made by him? For some reason I have a figure of £300 in my head. Is this true? Any pics of his?
I originally did an accountancy degree, strangely enough I found it really dull and clicky. So I jacked it in and have been working in a warehouse for the last six years on nights lol. Ive just lost my job yesterday, so Im at home relaxing. Im not upset, as I had to work my nads off and never...
I will ask mark about the benefits of solid top mounts. How do you find them compared to the standard ones.
He also mentioned motorsport ball joints. I have always wanted to get the suspension arms from the cup cars, if you know what I mean, as they are much stiffer and completely different...
I love Hertford and go there every so often for wine. I also love the loughton area. My brother worked in Theydon Bois ages ago. really nice bakers there.
UPDATE:
Went over to Mark Fish today to book my car in for the service. I have to say, what a lovely guy. I cant fault the guy on either his knowledge, or his excellent customer service skills. We nattered for 45 mins, he even asked me if my passenger would be getting bored etc. I shall...
Mark Fish advised me to reduce them by five clicks for the road. I have to agree, although i havent tried it yet. Hopefully it will iron out those big nasty bumps a bit.
I have decided to do my 24K service at Mark Fish cause he's near me and very good etc. I will be getting the front dampers unpinned at the same time,along with all the brakes as they are due for the heave ho.
I am going for the Brembo Max HC discs with pagid blues and braided lines.
Question...
What rate are they(in lbs if poss)?
What is the standard ride height?
Who makes them?
I am thinking of changing my spings to Eibach Prolines.
Anyone done this on a trophy?
Is it worth it>
What about geo changes(standard & track)?
Cheers :o
