I believe 'Lankan' on here has a refurbished set for sale, may be worth sending him a message. Also, if I remember right, then 'Hoolio' might possibly have a set he would be willing to sell, so might be worth sending him a message too. Apologies if I'm wrong on this!

So my Sachs dampers arrived today back from BG. Really happy with them, can't wait to get them fitted! Have to say, service from BG Motorsport was absolute A1, and turnaround was super quick even considering I mentioned that I was in no immediate rush for them! Would not hesitate to recommend...

Thanks for all the generous comments guys. I ordered them direct from AST UK. Good deal cheaper than getting them elsewhere. If you decide to get them, just mention when you call that you want the adjustable amounts for the Clio Trophy, and that should see you good. Yeah I really like the...

Yeah that is the only thing. I never plan to change the exhaust on the car though, so I think I am going to go with this and just cut off the olive joint from the centre section. If I ever changed I would just have to sell it with the cat, and source another cat. While it is an awesome bit of...

Thanks for the advice. So would I be looking at doing something like this... http://www.pure-motorsport.co.uk/details.php?itemid=252&model=6 So if I bought that in the link above and had it welded to my cat, and then had the olive joint cut off from the end of my centre section, then use a...

Currently have a stainless cat-back system on my 182, which bolts up to the standard cat. Looking to see if anyone has a sports cat they don't want? It would have to be a replacement for the OEM cat (i.e. it would fit a standard system), for example a Milltek Sports Cat will not fit as it does...

Time for a bit of an update. A while back I ordered some AST adjustable top mounts, which I will get fitted when the Sachs come back from refurbishment. Here is a pic when they arrived. Then I purchased some alcantara interior parts from somebody who was breaking their Monaco 172. Here is...

Fancy selling 4 of them?!

No problem, didn't get that impression anyway. But I would personally have been annoyed at the wait more than anything if I had to wait 2 months. Just one of those things, I see it that I just got lucky! Oh I see, so unless you saw them next to each other there isn't really a way of telling...

Yeah I bet! Almost sounds as though they have had a delay in getting stock in hence the wait for you? I just happened to order when stock is in? Either way, no excuse for not answering your calls and not keeping you up to date with your order. Is there any way of telling that these have been...

Scrap that. They did turn up. They were left with a neighbour but the card through the door didn't say that. Just been brought round now.

Well there is a FedEx card left through my door today. I haven't got anything else on order that I am waiting for, so it must be the AST mounts. Good news hopefully. Will find out tomorrow.

Thanks for the nice comments chaps. So a few things arrived in the post today. Two pairs of Silver Vision bulbs which should make the front and rear a bit nicer in my opinion... My Ph1 Shifter and Gear Knob also turned up. This has the adjustable Yanoo Stiff Shift fitted, along with brass...

Yeah on AST UK website they are £366 inc VAT. That's why I bought them over the phone right away when he said £270 inc VAT, I was quite surprised! Didn't want to ask any questions! The only thing I made double sure of was that they are modified for a Trophy which he confirmed, he knew what I...

Glad you got yours. That would seem to make sense, as I remember him saying on the phone that only 1 pair left which I bought, as they ordered some in and he mentioned the fact that someone else had recently ordered some and were being sent out, which I guess were yours Hoolio. So hopefully...

So have you actually got yours now Hoolio or still waiting?

I paid £225 + VAT so £270 in total. Not much consistency here is there!

Guessing I've been done then? It was me Marc is referring to who phoned AST UK today to order a set of Trophy top mounts. Apparently one more set in stock now as they recently ordered some in? Ready for dispatch tomorrow so I paid over the phone. AST seem like a big company and would think they...

Now this is quite interesting. I am aware of rubber degrading and didn't think of date stamp of tyres when ordering them. However I have just gone out and checked, and date stamp appears to be '1515'. My understanding is that means they were manufactured in the 15th week of year 2015, which by...

Hi guys Hoping to send off my dampers for refurbishment soon, and would like to fit a new set of springs at the same time as fitting the dampers. Just intrigued as to which are regarded as the best springs coupled with Trophy dampers? There are three option I see: Mark Fish Eibach Sportline...

So after fitting the plugs and leads last weekend, I decided to give the girl a clean followed by a mini detailing session. Started with a clay bar session which resulted in this. As you can see, certainly needed it! Next up was a machine polishing session to remove some of the swirl marks...

Hi guys Been a member on this forum for a little while now, but have never owned a Clio, or indeed any model of Renault before. Have wanted a 182 for ages, especially a Trophy, but was never in the position to own one. Just over a month ago, a very tidy Clio 182 with low miles popped up, in...

Sold.

Provisionally sold pending payment.

Instead of a new gearstick insert, how about a shifter and gear knob from a Phase 1 172? I have one for sale (look in parts for sale section) and they are much nicer than the standard 182 gear knob. Made from aluminium and is heavier which gives a much nicer shift. Just something to consider! Ash

Pipercross panel filter removed from my 182, due to fitting an ITG Maxogen kit. Noticed there is a couple of splits on the edges when I removed it from airbox, as pictured, but otherwise in great condition and has not done many miles at all (probably less than 1,000). Still works absolutely...

I assume this you just put on the manifold end so you don't have to run the vacuum line with a bolt in the end? Could be interested in that, do you know for sure if it is 4 or 6mm?

Cheers for the reply Marc. Already fitted it today, I just left the acoustic valve there and just unplugged it. Didn't have the time to remove the arch liner to get in at the acoustic valve. I'll have the bumper off soon so will remove it properly then and bolt the end up. Cheers

Hi guys Will be fitting my ITG Maxogen tomorrow. Just a quick question regarding Acoustic Valve... I obviously won't be using this anymore. Is it a case of just unplug it and disconnect the vacuum hose? Do I need to block the vacuum hose with a bolt in the end? And if I am correct, this is...
