Hi,
I've ordered a new aftermarket steering wheel and boss for my Trophy as the existing one has started to melt and the thumb grips have split so it looks a bit naff. The idea being eventually to get the original re-trimmed so I can have an airbag and cruise control and then flog the Momo.
I...

My original exhaust is starting to get a bit rusty on the silencers, and this may get picked up at next service/MOT. Though it may be fine.
I'm selling soon, and my car's USP is that it's 100% standard (other than the ubiquitous wiper mod).
Should I:
a. if possible leave the current exhaust...
Morning all !

I'm looking for interest on a potential second batch of these exhausts. It's the best fitted exhaust available for the 182 and sounds ace. Weighs around 6kg less than standard system. There are a few vids on you tube if you have a search.

Hi,
I am thinking of buying a trophy but I am unsure what the noise levels of the car are during cruising.
Bearing in mind that the car is lighter than the competition I would have thought that the redundant weight was removed by removing the heavy sound insulation?
Does anyone have a dB meter...
Hi All,
I've recently uprated my brakes to Brembo HC disk, DS 2500 pads, braided lines and DOT 5.1 fluid. The brakes were treated gently for the first 250 miles, however, on returning back from a long drive I noticed they started squeeling when coming to a stop.
As I was still a long way from...
Hi everyone.

Is anyone interested? It is in box as new, only used once.
Obviously it is calibrated to my old car but car but can be remotely reset by Henk at Fastchips for €50.

Hi everyone -
I've been knocking around the idea of getting a Trophy for a while now, and I'm going to be buying one very soon now.
Quick question: is it best to get a bog-stock example (what I've always done in the past) or does the Trophy respond well to a cat-back pipe and a panel filter...
Going to have the alignment/tracking, camber settings ajusted.
So many threads on here with varying opinion.
I use the trophy as my daily drive and trackday toy when Im in the mood which usually involves driving to the ring lol!
I need to know the factory settings if possible and please the...
Hello.
This morning i turned on my 182 and drove away. Then i noticed a light on the dash in the middle under the petrol light. It was a rectangle with wiggly likes in it from left to right and same orange as the petrol light. The engine had very limited power (limited to under 3000 revs). I...
Time to replace front wipers, have seen those wider wipers in some pics. just wondering whats the feed back from them n where do i get them? Think they look good a bit different just
Hi all,
Having previously used induction kits on all my cars, I ran into a dilemma on recently purchasing a 100% standard Trophy. It is an absolutely fantastic car with a nice raspy exhaust, but doesn't sound like it feels with such a muffled induction sound, something that I would like to...
I get a deep creak/groan sort of noise when pulling away. And no it's not the ABS system, it does it whenever pulling away from a standstill. Only started this week really, and i think it's related to my worn wishbone balljoints.
Normally i'd think engine mounts but it dunno. Anyone else had...
Hi All.
I'm getting my geometry set up again this weekend, it's not been done since new, and at nearly 50k it's definitely off, what with having to hold my steering wheel a few degrees to the right to go straight!
Soooooo. I'm presuming it's all trophy specific:
Toe?
Caster?
Camber...
