corner

Hi guys/gals Looking at getting myself a group N ecu fitted as i have just got a milltek + performance filter want to get the Group N to bring it all together to get a nice little gain will also have the inlet matched too in time. Just wanted to see if anyone can shed some light and tell...

It was found out that some genius at Renault decided to make 182 exhausts all one-piece rather than 3 which it should be. Seeing as the exhaust goes over the rear beam this meant that the cat and centre section were taken down, but the whole exhaust being connected did not come out because we...

My trophy repeatedly flashed up warning lights on the track, through a long left-hand hairpin. I can't say exactly which lights because I couldn't look at the dash for long enough, all I know is that it only happened in the one corner and one of the lights was a stop light. Come out of the...

Gave you a thumbs up this evening about 5ish Who was it?

Evo descrivbe the Trophy as 'the most fun you can have on 3 wheels' but my question is how do you get it on 3 wheels? Is it something that you should be able to do everyday or do you have to really push the car so much that you're very unlikely to achieve it safely on the road? Can you...

Picked it up after work on Monday. About 500 miles in so far and while its no Trophy, 205 or CRX...its a cracking motor and I can't wait to get it to an Airfield :D The petrol cap holder thingy comes as standard too :wink: As with most cars, its a 'better in person' thing and being BC this...

This weekend was my first really sunny weekend in the trophy and boy was it fun. Sunday I went on 3 random trips to nowhere in particular and im still so in love with my little car. Took the old lady out as well(1.8 16v) and they are both amazingly fun but now when i drive the old lady...

Got a call as i was putting the car in the carport last night and left it in gear with predictable results when i started it this morning. fairly certain it's just superficial but the bumper is cracked. Anyone know of any decent reno dealers in the Oxford/Reading area? :( Edit; sorry meant...

Quick update on this one: - ITG Panel Filter done - Cold Air Feed & Removal of acoustic valve (this to be followed by an ITG Maxogen at some point) - Better Horn (something a kin to an alpine bus) bought, about to be fitted- Lightweight & Strong racing wheels – ET45, 15†or...

My father is claiming there is a "weren't they great" comparative article about the Focus RS and the Trophy in there. He's getting on a bit, bless him, so he may be imagining it. :?: I shall find out on Saturday when I pop in.

....anyone know a good source of where to get some 16" slicks for the Trophy?

Well, nearly. Broad daylight, dry, country lane with flat (not ditched or hedged) runoffs. Road drops from plateau with sweeping left followed by tightening right under bridge and dropping steeply. Enter right on trailing throttle – some gravel previously dragged across surface. Get...

Could possibly be a really dumb question. Is damper performance dependent on weather? Over the last couple of days it appears to have got warmer and my car seems to be noticeably more supple over the bumps. In contrast a week ago it was around 0c and it felt a lot harder and less compliant...

i guy at work asked me what the mechanism that the central windscreen wiper sit on is for...i had no idea,i hadnt given it much thought despit it being my second clio sport...something do do with the swap over from LHD to RHD?

Ok, so i'm a few weeks late here... but i saw a trophy with the standard spec T## PHY reg plate in Christchurch a few weeks back. On Stoney Lane heading towards Somerford. I waved, was in the old silver 172 going the other way. Hi!

Just got the replacement for the Trophy yesterday. 20k miles on the clock and paid £14,750 from a trader completely factory standard. I feel guilty for saying it but it's better than the Trophy in every aspect in my opinion: The clutch pedal is harder, the brake pedal is harder and has...

It's a feature of the Trophy that's often forgotten, correct me if I'm wrong but it is unique to the Trophy right? Or was it an optional extra on the late FF 182's? Anyway, does anyone still use theirs? I used to use it a lot when I first got the car to keep my license but I don't think I've...

Odd one this but wondered if anyone has had similar? (I nicked my post of Evo forum for lunch break time save) Over the Christmas period Mario Kart was running fine and dandy, but I started to notice that a little bit of the steering feedback was gone when pushing on in the bendy bits. At...

just got the new 100th edition of EVO (corner bashed in as per usuall !!! so much for the improved packing we were promised last year!!) anyway rant over... trophy reached number 15 in the all time greatest drivers cars... ...

I have noticed recently that in the wet the brakes seem to ''fade'' quite easily. I know that the brakes on the Trophy are not the best in the world but these are not good. It happened today at a roundabout, and it was dry, I hit the brakes, got a little bite then nothing. My discs were new...

Just been getting a few quotes for a couple of new tires for my trophy... Best i've got so far is £176 fitted and balanced inc vat... Is that a decent price or have people paid much less on here?

Got bored so posted in every active topic :-w Makes a change from 'Cue' (wave)

...what would it be, and why? No budget limits, but remember that although it will be given to you, you will have to fill it up with fuel and service it and this is your only car for the rest of your life, so if you EVER need a boot or have more than two friends, the Maccer isn't the obvious...

Birthday at the weekend - and check out the pictures - had a Aston martin V8 Vantage to hoof in all weekend! What a car, more pictures to follow! :D

just decided to phone up and order the Spax lowering springs for the trophy (20mm) but they have been discontinued due to a lack of sales??? lol Not being funny but i said to the guy that there are only a percentage of the 551 or so trophys in the world that are gonna want to lower them...

Still not forgotten about the write up, in the middle of a contract bid, so a bit busy.....here's some photos in the meantime!
