Clio Trophy 182, AT Power ITBs Specialist Components Standalone ECU £5000 OK Here Goes, after listening to advice I have decided to sell my latest acquisition, since doing my first trackday last year I was blown away by my old Trophy 321's handling and the noise and speed of a few clios...

Hello all (first post :)). I have put a deposit on a Trophy which I will collect this weekend. When I went to have a look around it there were only really 5 issues I could find. 1. front shocks advisory on MOT as a bit soft. obviously in need of a refurbish. will sent to cornering force as...

Hi Everyone, Just joined the forum and finally in a position to buy a 2nd car. Looking for a good condition Trophy (isn’t everyone!) and have a healthy budget to spend on the right car depending on condition, history etc. Ideally less then 60k miles. If anyone can be tempted to part with...

Hi guys, I assume my clutch is uprated but thought I would post this in case paddle clutch's are standard. Either that or its bloody heavy! Its as heavy as the Cobra, I jumped in my RS focus and it was so lovely and light! I just wanted to check as I would be amazed if Renault did this style...

Have the following up for sale taken from my 182 Trophy. The calipers could properly do with a small refurbishment but they are in working order with everything present. These where taken off my car for them to be replaced with re-con units done at BiggRed. With these you also get spare rear...

Test drove a trophy today. On full left lock there was a grinding noise (sorry not sure how to describe it) coming from the right front suspension. Any idea what that might be possible?

As title, Went down to see Nick at PureMotorsport today to have one of his nice new 182 manifold back systems fitted. I chose to decat instead of use his option of a race cat, purely to keep costs down. The system gave a proven 6.6 hp gain on the rolling road, back to back over stock on his...

This may be a silly question but has anyone ever thought about fitting a mk1 focus rs splitter to their clio? I did it on my fiesta st and I thought it look pretty cool. They're similar sized cars so I reckon it would fit? I did post this on Clio sport but apparently out of the 1000's that are...

Im looking to get the following and i have no idea how to get them I would love to get the Red Keyring so can someone please inform me of who supplied these and who made them ? Also the press release would be an amazing thing to add to my collection of things, Where and how would i get this ?

I'm thinking about getting some spacers and was wondering, has anyone else has tried them on a Trophy, and if so, how did you get on? I'm currently running 1.5 degrees of negative camber at the front, standard Sachs (still pinned), Eibach Sportline springs (although I'll hopefully be trying out...

With our second child due in September, we had to rationalise our cars. First the wife's Civic EP3 Type-R Premier went to be replaced by a 5 door MK5 Golf R32, now my Trophy is being replaced by a Megane RS DCi175. I've owned the car for just over 3.5years covering 44,000 brilliant miles, it...

I've recently acquired 321 and although I am very happy with it, I am looking for ways to make it my own.. Thoughts so far are to send some of the interior trim to Spray shack and let them do their magic and also alcantra on the A posts.. Ive seen some folk add carbon fibre or red bits inside...

Hi All, Just a couple of quick questions on wheels; 1. what is the ET of the standard speedline wheel ? 2. if i use 182 cup wheels as a set of track wheels which have a ET of 45 would they make the track narrower ? if so i guess i can use a spacer and longer wheel bolts ? Thanks in advance

Hello, I've bought a trophy and I love it lots, but there's a couple of niggles: 1) I feel the car is slightly down on power, the car has an incomplete service history and i'm told the cambelt was changed by the previous owner, it's suggested that I get the timing checked, does anyone know how...

Hi Im looking to buy a Trophy and as well as looking at some great ones listed here, there seems to be lots on ebay as well as other sites such as Gumtree.. At the moment there is 9 available on ebay which is making it difficult for me to make a decision.. As you guys are experts in all that...

Hi, I have for sale a BMC CDA carbon fibre induction kit and the induction hose for a clio 182/172. This came with the car and I've removed it to put back the standard airbox. It works fine and has a good sound. It's in good condition (no scratches etc) and I have the brackets for fitting it...

got these for the clio after suffering 2 winters with poor grip on the michelins. 4x 15" pirelli snow control tyres and genuine Oz F1 wheels. the tyres give increased grip over the michelins in anything below 8 degrees. in retrospect, well worth the investment to get better grip over winter...

Hi, I'm sure this has been asked many a time but I just want to be sure (: my trophy has started ticking when it's up to temperature and idling. The ticking increases with the revs, up to about 2000rpm then goes away. Is this the dephaser pulley on its way out? Anyone else experienced this? I'm...

I got a letter saying all clio 182's including the cups etc all have a recall about the bonnet catch ceasing and then the bonnet opening as you come down the road and smashing everything to bits?
