aftermarket

There is two new GT-R's kicking about near me, one white and one red. Ive one seen the red one once but see the white one a few times, and today i ended up behind it just about to go onto a 70mph road, i thought to myself, he is going to boot it here and my god he did, i was in 2nd gear doing...

ok then just to add a bit of humuor to the forum... What is the most rediculess / stupid / unbelivable thing a dealer has ever done / said to yourself... i'll start with this one... when we bought my wifes R27 (ex demo) i asked the dealer to touch up a small scuff on the front wheel, in their...

Hi! My Trophy needs new rear discs, now i know they incorporate the bearings so i would need to change them too realistically. Now i know i should really get original renault bearings(probably skf or something) as i want them to last a good amount of time. And i want to get half decent quality...

Does anyone know what spring rates the Trophy uses as standard?

Dudes, I am fuming. My Trophy went in for its third (i.e. north of £500) service a month ago at AKS Renault in Yeovil. Today it went for its first MOT at my trusted independent garage, local to work, who service my van fleet. It failed, as the rear pads are worn down to almost nothing, and...

I'm looking at spending no more than a grand on some performance upgrades on the Trophy. looking at the Morego (without cams) but not sure. Does a custom remap, filter and exhaust offer more value for money and if so who and where do you recommend? cheers.

Has anyone had the Mark Fish exhaust mod done? - He said he'd done a couple of Trophies. Basically he cuts a 1/4 of the cat off and welds in a nice shiny, new, larger bit of tube to replace the crappy cat to exhaust joint - he reckons its good for 5 bhp?? Cost £125 - anyone think its worth...

Does anyone know whether 182 Cup dampers will fit a Trophy? Reason I ask is that my nearside front damper has a loose remote reservoir and has leaked oil and is therefore shot. My car has done only 31000 miles. I've only a few days left of my warranty (end of Aug, great timing!!) and will try...

Hi Everyone Having just purchased a nice low mileage trophy a month or so back im having to consider moving it on. Unfortunately for me I just cant get away with the driving position. Has anyone else had this problem and come up with a fix? Everything else about the car is great and its a...

Hey, i was just wondering, would changing my spark plugs and leads make any difference to performance? if so how can i know what ones to get? any help is good

I have a major problem :( Not really sure what to do. Driving home form work on Saturday, the emissions warngin light came on and the car sounded oncredibly unhealthy. (i thought it sounded like a steam train...) Got towed home by the rac, and they have said it has blown a spark plug. The guy...

Wheels are as new, lovingly polished even on the inside. Tyres are 60% worn Kumho V70A soft - the only make available in the correct size. Warning, they are brilliant in the wet, but not in standing water (only have 4mm tread when new)- also being soft they pick up every little bit of grit and...

Hi, i have just brought a trophy last week and was washing it this morning when i noticed that the rear brake pads arent using the whole width of the discs. (not touching about 1cm of disc on outside) Can someone please tell me id this is normall, and if not what to do Cheers

Hello everyone. My Trophy has had a problem for the past two weeks :( I'll start from the beginning. Around two weeks ago i went to Renault Leicester to get a small interior light fixed (the illumination for the mirror controls on the drivers' door). Turned out that it doesn't even have a light...

Gave the clio a good wash the other day and thought i would post some pictures. Car is doing me well alltho its just been in for a service with rentech which cost me £300. Not bad considering Renault wanted £600 odd. As you can see it needs a new foglight/splitter/ small amount of bumper...

I have two diskiles about my new toy and was wondering is there anything I can do to fix them; 1. The Steering Wheel. At the thumb rests there seems to be a horrible sort of plastic that make my hands sweat. It horrible to the touch. I suppose i could get a smaller aftermarket wheel, but I...

Guys & Girls, Just to let you know a few things are changing with our exhaust systems - 172/182 & 197. Due to us selling a lot more 197 systems (maybe down to our new advertising campaign in EVO/Performance Car) with the 197 Cup related articles. Our New Pricing Structure will be in...

As 196 won't be going anywhere near a track and I'm not really into "modding" I was planning on leaving everything standard (apart from the Permegard). However after seeing various 182's with aftermarket exhausts and thinking what a difference a proper pair of tail pipes makes to the backend...

Noticed the car seemed to steaming up over the last week or so - didn't think too much of it because of all the wet weather. Just gone to give the mats a bit of a clean and discovered a puddle under the mat in the pasenger footwell!! Booked in at the stealers for a water check next week, they...

im thinking of spending some money on the trophy and was wondering if a de cat and induction kit would be beneficial, ive already got a janspeed exhaust system and wanted a little more response and sound. has anyone got these mods and are you happy with them? many thanks :D
