dampers

Mark Fish springs/rear Koni owners What’s yours like on the road? Is it way to bumpy? Rear wanting to skip out? To firm? I have the setup and its firm but not crashy, but wont to see other peoples views?

Does anyone have any contacts at Michelin? Preferably in product development, manufacturing or supply chain. Customer services or marketing better avoided. Looking at Michelin's current UK range the Pilot Exalto PE2 (for the Sports and Roadster segment so they say) is still available in...

have come across quite a few posts over time of pics of peoples front sach dampers that have just been refurbed and afterwards have went and repainted them etc but been searching there and cant find any. anyone got any links there thanks

I am selling a full Trophy suspension set up, with recently refurbished front dampers. This set up will fit a 182 Cup, a 182 with Cup Packs and the Trophy. I bought the dampers off a guy on Cliosport last July. I have not even fitted these to my car as I have been preoccupied with another...

Hi all, just to introduce myself, I have just bought 449 and loving it already! I signed up to get more info before buying, the forum is great to find out about the potential issues and fixes. The Clio is a 2nd car for fun, there are a few minor jobs to do, four new PS3s are going on...

Just curious really. Heading towards 3 years of ownership and still trying to keep mine as standard as possible, have a bit of a fetish for replacing parts all genuine Renault! Still running original springs front and back, and have had the front dampers refurbed at BG with new Sachs rear...

who can reccomend a good, cheap courier for sending SACH Dampers in the post?

Renault Clio Renaultsport 182 Trophy No. 71 of 500 48,600miles Bought in Nov 2009, selling because we need a bigger car for a dog (good lady wants one for her bday in March!). Won’t need any further money spending on it until tax at the start of July and then service/MOT in November...

I have for sale 2 Front SACHS dampers. They are in need of a refurb. looking for £300 collected (Based in cheshire) or I can sort out a courier at a price. Please get in touch. cheers. .

It's approaching insurance renewal time so I thought I'd start an honesty thread. If I was being up front about modifications to the T I'd declare: - Filter upgrade (ITG panel) - Suspension upgrade without lowering (Koni rear dampers) - Brake upgrade (Ferodo/Brembo) - Exhaust upgrade...

My dampers were due a refurb and was finding time to get them sorted then a good deal appeared o CS and was to good to miss:cool: So decided to buy new and they arrived yesterday;) So ive also bought rear Sach shocks and now deciding what springs to invest in. I should have some change from...

Ideally front and rear. Will consider with or without springs (I'm after some MF items). Cash waiting.

I've just done this very thing. Picked up one two weeks ago. Got it booked in for a service next weekend, where I'm chucking on new OEM dicsc, Fedoro FS2500 pads, gulf racing brake fluid and braided hoses. Also changing the engine oil to Gulf competition, new air filter, gearbox oil, engine...

Hi everyone, Sorry to say my period of Trophy ownership has come to an end, as someone at the more senior end of the age spectrum I decided to get something more fitting to my pipe and slippers image - Saab 9-3 Aero, full power turbo, full leather interior, full service history etc. etc...

Hello! I'm a 182 owner looking to buy a Sachs unit 36kmiles old, the seller said they're in perfect working order with no leaks. Are they any tests or checks I can do on those to make sure they're actually in good nick, I obviously don't expect them to work like knew but at least to postpone the...

Hello all, Does anyone know where I can get hold of the genuine Renault/Sachs stickers that are found at the bottom of every Sachs damper on a Trophy? Rhys

all, i am new to the trophy world, from previously having a 320bhp scooby this is a bit of a different story. with regards to modifications what would you all suggest i've had a browse at pictures of mods in this forum, so the usual:- Exhaust- where do i go? decat - yes or no? panel...

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...

Back again for sale and this time it's for certain. I need a much larger car and four doors. One owner, low milage car. First registered on 24/12/2005. Number 487. Always garaged and extremely well looked after. Full service history including initial oil change after running in period. The...

Daydreaming at work and thought others might like to join in/help out, especially if you're as bored as me!! Current spec is standard, plus: Wiper stalk mod Brembo/Ferodo discs & pads ITG panel filter One of the rear dampers is on the way out, leaking, so will be replaced with a pair of Koni...

right, my beef is basically, why are these cars just not worth that much money anymore? for a car as amazing as this to drop from £15,00 in 5 years is pretty shocking, i think asking for £4000, £5000, or even £6000 when selling yours is rediculous. these cars are classic and a piece of history...

Hi guys The sad time has come when I'm going to have to sell my Trophy. I don't really want to but I've just bought a Lotus Elise and can't justify owning two cars. My question is, what's it worth? It's an 06 plate, but it's done 102k miles (mostly motorway driving so they've been "kind"...

Does anyone have a spare Eibach spring for the Trophy? £100 paid for the correct item (part Number - 8200514730)

Apologies for bringing this up again but the recent spate of comments on suspension has prompted me to post. As I see it there are three options for replacing Trophy rear dampers: a) 182 Cup dampers (£65ish) b) Renault/Sachs Trophy-specific dampers (£115ish) c) Koni adjustable dampers...

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...

clio trophy 355, hi guys testing the water to see what interest i get in the trophy. Really don't know where to start the car has had an absolute fortune spent on it in the last 6 months. Me and richard of pyro motorsport( we know these cars inside out) have gave the car a complete overhaul to...

My trophy's recently started making a creaking noise which looks to be coming from the drivers side suspension. You can hear it when driving over any slight bumps in the road and especially over speed bump. Also today noticed what must be a slow puncture as the pressure on this tyre was down to...

In two minds whether to do this or not but i just dont use the car at all and my house renovation has to take priority over racing at the moment. Only been out once this year at Oulton for a test/track day and last raced last year. It was previously owned and run by Alex Schooledge of Outpace...
