    Dampers......again.....

    From what I have managed to work out from reading on here, I briefly explained what I believe to be the gap, and linked to someone's photos explaining here: http://cliotrophy.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=7219&start=75 ETA: Aucky, just realised you commented at the time. Definitely needs...

    OBD reader

    I bought one from eBay too, it had a "best offer" as well as a Buy it now price, so I got it for £22.50 delivered. This is the one I went for...

    Front Shock gone

    Your spelling has been pretty bad too! I know what you mean though, the iPhone keyboard is just too small!

    this months EVO + Harry's T

    Again, I'm no expert, and I haven't got round to checking mine yet, but the way I understand it, the remote reservoir contains about half of the oil and gas needed for the damper to operate. If the gas leaks from the system, the remote reservoir sags, and the two parts move closer together as...

    this months EVO + Harry's T

    From what I understand it, the gap is from the horizontal bar joining the damper to the remote reservoir, to the top of the remote reservoir. There is a pic on here somewhere showing the difference. The photo posted by tallandy here...

    Luckily you've got a Trophy, not a Cup, otherwise I'd be really worried!

    Shed of the week!!!

    This one get's my vote. Simple, classic, not too showy. A nice classic example: Oh!! Not that type of shed! :oops:

    curbed alloy!

    The Trophy compared to the Seat Leon is completely different in most ways. The Leon was the new shape TDI 170 FR, so obviously being a diesel, didn't like being revved at all. The torque was amazing even from 1500-2000 revs, so there was no need to rev it. Also, it was very quiet, the engine...

    curbed alloy!

    I'm doing OK so far, but I'm being extra careful as it's the first car I've owned for a long time with no marks on the wheels! My Seat Leon FR I had before the Trophy was owned by a blind man before me. Well, he parked by braille, anyway! O/T- When I bought my Trophy, the guy valeted it before...

    curbed alloy!

    Someone on CS forum is/was selling a brand new Trophy alloy, about £90 I think. ETA: He's just put pics up. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=498785

    A few subtle changes

    Showoff! Not jealous at all! =P~ A cracking set of cars there. =D> Oh, and: Almost overkill: (fastforward to 0:46) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4qRVfioR2g Don't think these are overbraked as such, just badly engineered!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUuhjYaK9EM&feature=related...

    Carbon Key Ring

    Ooh, nice! I'd be interested in one of these too, so if you're PMing the details, can you PM me too please!? Better than the 4kg metal bottle opener one from CS!

    That's a great shot! One of yours? Makes me want to go to Wales now! (well, not now, as it's dark, but you know what I mean!)

    A few subtle changes

    Looks good! I really like the bullets, splitter and fog lamp surrounds. I'm not as keen on the diamonds, had seen some for sale on the RS forum, but not seen any fitted to the Trophy. Think I prefer the standard ones. You just need the rear bumper insert and exhaust surrounds now! OT: Thanks...

    Front splitter wanted

    Where are you based? Are you selling the carbon one? (Might be interested in a swap!)

    TROPHY SUSPENSION

    As Renaultsport has already said, there's a guy on here selling a passenger side Sachs shock - why not buy that or the one offered by BenG, and get them rebuilt. If the seats are the only reason for wanting a Trophy, there are a few FF182s out there with the seats fitted, you could buy a FF182...

    You've got a set of old 15"s kicking about somewhere, haven't you!? :wink: Not sure the current tyre choice can be classed as winter tyres though!

    Australian F1 this morning

    Yeah, was a great race. It probably would've been boring if it was dry, but luckily it wasn't, so the weather made it entertaining! If the Red Bull's were reliable, I think Vettel would be unbeatable. Lewis was a bit of a kn0b to be honest - one minute he's moaning his (20-odd lap old) tyres...

    Quiz of the week

    They look good, but I'm surprised there's that much difference in weight! (I assume that is including tyres - so the alloys are lighter maybe, but the extra rubber makes it heavier?) Out of interest, did you go for 15s purely for price of track tyres?

    Steering wheels

    J333EVO had his wheel retrimmed, I'm sure I saw a photo of it on here a while back. Not sure who did it for him, or how much it was.

    Trackday at Pau Arnos (France) Video

    Looks like a nice fun circuit! The Boxster at the start was going a bit slow, weren't they? Also, what is the orange supercar overtaken at 1:40? Looks like a Detomaso? I thought Muira at first, but the rear buttresses don't look right. Were those cones not really annoying? I've not done any...

    Personally I'd keep all 3 if it was me! I would love an S1 Elise - my little bro had one a few years ago, I loved driving it!

    V6 / Trophy spoiler for sale

    There was one of these on CS the other day, it was a bit of a bun-fight, people fighting for it. There's some bloke in Mexico who's apparently been after one for months and months, but no-one would sell to him! I Think the guy selling finally agreed to ship to Mexico, so he was as happy as a pig...

    Newbie with a problem

    When you unlock the car, the LED (by the gearstick) will flash a certain number of times to tell you the reason the alarm has gone off. According to the alarm manual, the reasons are as follows: 1 blink - doors, bonnet, boot have been opened 2 blinks - additional sensor triggered 3 blinks -...
