    How far is k-tecracing? They are pretty resonable when it comes to belts. Rear brakes do sod all so OE is fine. IKs are a waste of money and unless you have new cams etc so are remaps. Infact I had an IK fitted(admittedly not a maxogen) and put the standard airbox back on for a trackday and...

    Trophy for sale £7950

    I paid £7800 for mine sept last year and I believe I got a fair price. Yes it would have been about £7k 6 months earlier but I made £1650 on my 225 F1 so I could not care less even if I could only get £6k for it now. Although, its mint, Zymoled and only on 21k so I dare say I'd get most of my...

    Repaired Tyre safe for track ?

    Oh yes!! Great day!! Front left was really bad, defo an MOT failure! PE2s are perfect on the road but cant cope on track, the grip is ok but the side wall gets destroyed. Just fitted some Hankook RS2s so hope they will cope better!!

    Repaired Tyre safe for track ?

    If its on the back IMO it should be fine. Big difference on track. My fronts were absolutely destroyed but the backs we fine. You know what health and safety are like these days if it wont safe they would not allow it. As long as its not near the side wall it would not overly bother me However...

    Can Someone Reccommend A Drying Cloth/Towel

    I have a brilliant towel! Got it free from ne detailing! It's blue and dimpley!! Anyway a towel is only as good as the wax IMO! I use a very good wax so drying is a piece of piss! Infact I can actually use water to dry my car!

    is this normal?

    As in this would imply everthing is ok? I thought it would be still hard to bounce test even with knackered dampers!! I know there us much more to checking than just a bounce test but if what you are saying is right than that is reasuring!!!

    is this normal?

    Its such a hard car to bounce test! I'm quite big at 16st and I can't move it at all on the front.

    Ford Fiesta ST - 2007 - 12000miles

    I think that is very good value. £7k would get you a 55 plate with 40k trophy wise. From what I hear its easier to get one of these to 200bhp that it is for a 197

    Is this a Scorpion RS192

    Suppose there are other benefits to a single box system. 1 it lighter 2 less strain on the mounts

    Is this a Scorpion RS192

    Don't do many miles so not too fussed, it will still have the cat so not gonna be too loud! This isn't the one I'm defo going for just looking!

    Is this a Scorpion RS192

    Right I have found out the difference! An RS192 has a box per pipe, this has only 1 box that 2 pipes come from ! From a performance point of vue there will be nothing in it but the normal may be a bit louder!!

    Is this a Scorpion RS192

    I'm thinking of getting an exhaust if I get a bonus! Just exploring the options, this seems good value, also it is collectable, the place is only in crossgates!

    Sadev sequential @ K-Tec

    You just said party the box due to speed of change then went on to say ratios, which is the box and power output which is helped by the box too! The atw figure with this box would be approx 10bhp more than a standard box on a 182

    Is this a Scorpion RS192

    Ok then so what's better about the 192 over this?? Same company makes it and it's a similar price!!

    Sadev sequential @ K-Tec

    It would be cool for about 5 minutes. But it would give you a lot of performance. Old cup racers did 0-100mph in around ten seconds due to this gearbox. Obviously they have a little more power and less weight but not stripping a 172 and adding 20bhp would make it do 10s to 100mph

    best polish to use?

    The best product I have ever used is Zymol HD clense. Apart from correcting the paint it gets rid of everything that causes the paint to dull. Obviously you then need wax it, I'm currently using Zymol concours and it's in a different league of finish, protection and lasts longer than anything I...

    how many miles has your trophy done?

    Went past 20k about 2 weeks ago and I think its about 20150 now. Dont use it much, I think I'll be doing about 4k per year, its just sat in the garage covered in Zymol Concours so it will still be in top nick for years to come.

    SACHS DAMPERS REBUILDS

    Sounds good does this. £200 vs what?? £400+ Not too keen on the 4 week turn around but hopefully if a few of us get it done there is should come way down as he will know what to expect.

    Drove my fist Trophy - couple of questions

    The engine should feel the oposite to that i.e. Flat under 5 and once you hit 5250 the engine note should change and you'll feel a big step up in power! As for tyres I have serious doubts about any cars not on pe2s (apart from track rubber)
