damper

Hello Guys joined up after seeing the sticker in the back of my new trophy i picked up from Ely just over a week and a half ago. Who ever used to have it must be on here and must have looked after it , its tip top and i love it , i have had lots of cards , turbo non turbo vxr's and this is well...

..on top of the remote part of the damper?? You can see em on mine but not on a mates. Is it owt to do with being un pinned?? Sorry if its a dumb Q but new to Trophy stuff

does anyone know the length of the dampers ? (with springs if that makes any difference), i need to send mine off for a refurb next week and i'm looking for a good box at work to put them in? cheers/

Just a quick query - anyone who's had this done -have you declared it as a mod for insurance/should it be? Thanks!

I'm currently having my dampers refurbished and had a snapped spring so I'm looking at getting some alternatives as replacements from Renault are a shocking price. I was recommended the Sportline Springs by Yozzasport but some other people think they will lower the car by up to 50mm?! Has...

All parts covered approx 40k miles. 2 x front springs: offers 1x rear spring £60 1 x rear damper £50

Hiya all, am looking for a set of these as my next compromise road tyre. I am having a hard time finding them in Trophy size, any tips? Camskills do them but are out of stock ATM. Cheers,

Curiosity got the better of me so I decided to strip down my spare damper to see the inner workings and also see if I could find out why it had gone ‘soft’. I really had no idea what to expect as ive never seen the insides of a Remote Reservoir Damper before but I did have a picture in my head...

Afternoon chaps, After taking the motor out for a spin this afternoon, i noticed after, a squeaking noise coming from what sounds like the steering rack etc... leading down to the wheels. Almost like the same creaking noise as when a bed goes. I then stopped, and turned the wheel when i was...

Over the past few months i have noticed a squeaking sound coming from the driverside front damper on the T - it has also become very 'spongey' in comparison to passengerside! :( Is this likely to mean they needs refurbing? Any advice appreciated!

literally just de-pinned 264, while im putting it back together can people tell me... how many clicks are factory how many is advised for road use and how many for track .... and anything else. thanks guys

PLEASE Don't hate me for asking this BUT.........I am wanting to get my dampers serviced as I have gone passed the 36k mark long ago! But also while doing this I would like to get new dampers on the rear (koni) and also get some Mark Fish springs. How much would I be looking at spending to get...

Hi guys im in need of some advice, my trophy suspension is causing me some concern, on the o/s front of the car the suspension seems to be have a lot more play then the n/s , i've had a look and can't see any fluid but does this sound like the shock could be shot? the car has only done 23,000 so...

I'm playing with a few ideas for the winter rebuild, and one of which maybe the Sachs dampers making way for some coilovers. What kind of price have used dampers been going for? Also these have been refurb'd 1000 miles ago so please bear this in mind :wink: Any thought welcome. Chris

HI all, It's the for me that we all hate and that's insurance renewal time :( Also i need some new front tyres as mine are just over the legal limit. I wanted to know who everyone recommends for insurance, i'm not using the car for track days or anything and it doesn't have any...

Please can someone explain to me why the Bilstein B14 Coilovers wont fit the 182 Cup/Trophy. I may be reading this wrong but the site reads: 'Renault Clio 172 (inc. Cup) and 182 (non-Cup/Trophy)' That to me says they will not fit the Trophy, but why ...

I have a week of work soon, so I was thinking of getting the front dampers refurbished. However, having seen a new suspension setup on another car (more in a minute), I want to do some suspension mods at the same time. Ok, in my opinion, The car is far too soft, more so at the rear. This is...

Morning all ! ok so i got my Trophy Pretty much fresh out the box. taken the Acoustic Value off, getting some fat piping today. and i also getting the brakes done (discs lines fluid etc etc.) ok so, i know that when it comes to Mods if you don't have a set plan, and you just fiddle, thats when...

Am wondering what symptoms people experience when their dampers (f) have given up and are off for their pilgramage to Ben at BG...?? 007 still feels taught as a trolley after 50k, but i have noticed the o/s wheel is oh-so-slightly higher in the arch that the n/s one, but i'm talking mm rather...

Having bought a load of Clio 172/182/Trophy Strut Braces recently, i've decided to to offer them too forum members at a discounted rate of £25 a pair, that includes one front and one rear in red plus free postage and packaging :D These are an easy install component and can be fitted in...

I noticed my top mounts are not sitting right today. They were fine when I removed the Solid Top mounts a while back and since then I have had a camber adjustment, maybe this has caused it ? They are fully tightened ! Note: They do not even touch the Turrent !!! :shock: Any ideas...? ...

Dear All, Travelling down the A40 towards Monmouth today a pipe was in the left hand lane which I couldn't avoid due to traffic on my right. I thought to myself, "that doesn't look too big, I'll drive straight over it." Oh how I was wrong. The pipe scored the underneath of my car (i don't...

what exactly is "corkscrewing" as mentioned by Harry T in this months Evo....?

If you buy this mag, you'll soon read that Harry's T has had re-furbed front shocks. Seems the front as "corkscrewing". One had lost it's gas the other had a slight oil leak. His cars only done 16000 miles. Am guessing a lot of those were hard miles?!

It's not what your thinking [-X [-X [-X A Crash Diet......... Seeing as it's only a track car (still drives to the tracks though) i decided that anything that could be removed was removed, i suppose i should have posted a pic, but the garage is full so most of the panels ete are just...

Has anybody run 205 width toyo R888 tyres on a Trophy? And if so what offset wheels. Thanks

Yesterday my trophy developed this dodgy noise on the way back home from work, it was a pop followed by a scraping/cracking noise of metal on metal. I have checked the rear suspension over pretty thoroughly, and can't find any problems! The only things that i haven't eliminated are the dampers...

Noticed the other day the passenger side front damper has already been 'unpinned' however went to look at the driver side damper and noticed it hadn't been done. This is beacause the pin is directly in-line with the grubscrew making the grubscrew inaccessable!! How are you meant to get the pin...
