Did anyone pull the trigger? I see they're not longer in stock at Camskill...

I, and my neighbours, can confirm

I did a back to back drive in my Trophy with my friend's standard mk3 MR2. Completely agree with the above, it's a really sweet handling car. Nice and pliant, balanced and really suited to our bumpy roads. They're a bit under the radar! (For now).

Someone might correct me, but these could be the correct size and style (albeit not anthracite). https://shop.renaultsport.com/RSperformance/jante-renault-sport-turini-renault-clio-ii-r-s-jean-ragnotti.html

Evening all, does anyone have a decent used gearbox end cover? Thanks! OE part number: 7700111166 Thanks!

Anybody used yellow touch up paint on their springs? Any recommendations? Mine are nearly new but slightly marred from assembly (really not bad, I'm being anal 😅).

I went from PBS ProRace pads, which felt great once up to temp, to Brembo 'standard' pads. I preferred the former, but they were expensive, and more annoyingly they wore down the disc at the same rate as the pads! Lots of dust too. I'm happy/used to the Brembos for now.

Good catch! Are these the guys sponsored by Febi? I shudder each time I think of the Febi thermostat in my Trophy. Engine killer 😭

Ok.... I might have to take this back :ROFLMAO: Now the PS5 is available, I'll have to have a rethink! Either way, I need new tyres soon.

Yokohama AD08 RS. Not a huge fan! Unless you're in a fairly narrow temperature window (i.e. almost never in the UK) the grip level and balance isn't quite as predictable as I'd like. They also squeal a heck of a lot when very hot. My friend has an MR2 on the same tyres, he has the same...

They will be my next tyre, looking like next month.

@Lewr1407 might be able to help? Looks like he got his done at Northloop Cup. Check out this thread: https://cliotrophy.co.uk/threads/lsd-on-clio-182.48001/post-425824

I bought mine after a lot of umming and ahhing over what I really wanted out of a car. In the end, I wanted a fun, usable modern classic. I literally Googled this phrase! On almost all of the lists I found, there was a Trophy. I was considering a 6.2 C63, but I thought the running costs would...

What are the normal retail prices?

Do you recall how much they were?

I wish you hadn't said that, I might have to get some new ones to go with my damper refurb 🫠 Shame to have old spring aids and gaiters with newly painted corners

Would love to, thansk! I'm in Gaydon, Warwickshire, so not a million miles away.

I bought the white bush from Renault a couple of months ago. A bit fiddly to reassemble but a bit of patience and it can be done. The car had done about 130k miles at the time of replacement. Definite improvement for a small outlay. I'd say the shift was 20% more 'snickety', if that makes...

Pm sent @photo_ed

What did you do with the bushes?

Thanks @Mike256, I've sent a message. I hope they're from a Clio 2

Any condition apart from bent please! I'm planning on refreshing with TRW bushes and powdercoating. So any surface rust, flaking paint or destroyed bushes aren't an issue. Thanks

Hi @Zenris , I hadn't fitted these. The plan now will be to find a used set of OEM arms, and press out the bushes. Then I'll powdercoat the arms and press in some TRW bushes. I want to keep the geometric tolerance of the Renault parts but also keep natural rubber of a semi decent quality at...

Yes please!

Ah! I met Julian at Caffeine and Machine with his Trophy. I didn't realise it was Julian Thompson off of designing cars. Nice chap.

Phew! I can also confirm Cornering Force are still offering a full service/refurb.

And Asda tyres!

Where did you get your PS3's from Craig?

I have a flat spot around 3000 rpm from cold. When warmed up - no problem. I don't believe this is unusual? If anything, it shows the car hasn't been remapped, which in my mind is a good thing.

I was able to use the old nut with a new top mount without any issues. I'll try and get some photos in the next day or two for reference in this thread.
