i think i will be in need of some rear shocks soon.
what's your thoughts on replacements?
i was going to go for koni or original trophy sachs.
i've been quoted £113 inc vat + postage for the trophy sachs
and £93 inc vat + postage for Koni's.
i am tempted by the £40 saving from the trophy...

Guys,
I need your help on where to get a new coil spring for my Trophy as it has collapsed.
The MOT was last week and it failed and trying to find a coil spring is like trying to find a DoDo!!
Where can I get one? A standard one will be fine just now until I look for coilovers.
Any help...

I got these a few months back from a trophy that had been rear ended. Didnt catch its number, however the mileage was just below 20,000 miles.
I purchased the shocks from it to trasform my cup into a trophy wanabe :)
Anyhow plans have since changed and I now own a set of bilstein b14...
I'm a bit perplexed by this, within the last month or so, i've been getting loud twanging/donging noises when maneuvering. The other weekend i checked over the complete suspension, to make sure noting was loose. I found no faults, but i tried tightening the front damper assembly top nut inside...
Hi all, been a while since i've been on here as i sold my T over two years ago now, a sad day that was too!
The Trophy has been by far my favourite car, for the year/12k miles i owned it i loved every second and done my best to keep it in perfect condition and it was just that 'perfect...
Hi Guys,
My front right shock is abit bouncy so think I might need a refurb soon, so planning on taking both the front sachs off and selling them. The other two are amazing, however my brother got the back left SACHs replaced with a standard shock. So I have 3 of the sachs left. Was planning on...

Planning on refurbing my dampers myself and need to keep mobile!
Just wondering if anyone has fitted a pair of 172 cup struts to their trophy??
Not 100% sure if its only 182 cup struts that fit.
cheers, glenowl
Hi, I have owned a Cup packed 182 for over 4 years now, determined to keep it as long as possible.
Always kind of wished for the Trophy set up so I have just invested in a full set of Trophy dampers.
I was wondering what you guys could recommend to get the set up correct. Lots of advice already...
Good day chaps!
My recent MOT revealed a leaking driver's side damper. So it's my intention to whip the shocks off, send them to BG for refurb, off which i have just emailed. Just a note, I emailed Mark Fish first, who basically said use BG as they have the market covered for this job.
While...

Just a little comparison, I love them both though
Basically I got offered these cheap, they'd done relatively no miles and as I dont intend to drive the trophy hard this year at all then I thought why not enjoy the added looks low cars give....atleast to...
Hi,
I test drove a Megane 250 Cup and Clio Sport 200 back to back today and I can't decide which is better.
The car will mainly be a daily driver with occasional trackday use.
The handling of both is great but the Megane might be a better car to live with day to day (if only it looked better)...
Hey Guys! I've fancied a new project for a while and finally found what I was looking for today!... I decided to treat myself to a 106 S1 Rallye to use mainly for track days and road rallies! Great spec, just a few little jobs and she's ready for some track action!
I've got a couple of sets of...
For sale is my much loved 2003 VW Lupo Gti in Tornado Red. Selling due to recently buying a Trophy. The Lupo is currently on 87,450 miles but will go up as it is used to commute daily (nearly all motorway miles currently averaging 44MPG). It has only had 2 previous owners before me and...
Well after fighting through the snow, Driving on a main motorway at 20mph and doing some scray back roads my lovley other half took me to pick my trophy up.
Its now in tucked away at work in a secure carpark while the snow is here and is soon to be moved inside.
Thise is the only 2 pics i got...
Hi all,
Last year I was looking for a Trophy as a trackday-toy, in the end I went for a modified VX220, now though the Clio-itch is back.
I've always been drawn towards the Trophy, rather than the Cup, but is it worth the premium if the car is to be used as a trackday-toy/daily driver? Is a...
Hello all, haven't posted here for a while. Still have my T :D it's on 19000m and recently had the dampers serviced at BG.
I had a question about getting the geo/camber done please. Since the dampers were taken out, I've lost the tracking, wheel alignment and camber and need to get it all...
Whilst i'm aware that some of you perhaps think that the Cliosport forum is a bit 'childish', 'chavvy' or simply below you as a Trophy owner ... having read some of the threads on here since i've had mine, i have been constantly amazed by the lack of knowledge that 85% of this forums users...

Right ho,
Currently in a bit of a weird place re: the suspension on my Trophy. Front dampers have been refurbed, & the rears are also only 18 months old, so its a great setup, with plenty of life left in it ...
However, on track, its not quite low/stiff/adjustable enough, so my plan is/was to...
As above, the new style ones in black anodised finish, bought a few months back and have never been out of the box due to change of plans. Great upgrade to fit any setup, standard or coilovers. Can provide pics to interested parties, in the meantime have a look at the link to them on k-tecs...
Morning all
As some of you are already aware I have now started a company supplying performance parts for Renault's and many other cars.
My premises is located in Basingstoke in Hampshire just off of the M3 and I share a unit with X Sport Racing who are a well established race prearation...
So this is my latest baby... a Liquid Yellow 182 with a mere 27k on the clock when I picked it up. I love the colour so couldn't resist another one and decided as my use of car is less for commuting and more for fun to make it the perfect spec (in my eyes)...
Started with a visit to Charlie @...
Bonjour everyone, thought id share some pics of my 182, had it for a year an a half now, almost had a trophy but insurance was double what it is on the 182
