pressure

Got a puncture repair in one of my tyres, and I am not sure whether or not to trust the repair on track? The tyre place that fitted said that they are rated to 220mph and it should therefore be fine on track, but I'm worried that the increased heat and pressure and the increased movement in the...

so does the car have to jacked up before you put the foam in ?

Helped my mate change his oil on his Teggy Type R recently, and we could not find anywhere decent under the car to jack up from, so using a trolley jack, we jacked up using the jacking points, and everything went fine. So I decided to use the same method on the Trophy (despite having used...

From the back of the car and cant find it i have tried driving with out the parcel shelf in the seats down the plastic hatch trim off but still its there . Any ideas .

Big thanks to Opie Oils for my Silkolene oil, arrived 1 day after order. :D I'de Recommend them to all on the Forum :!:

Hi everyone, I have been driving my trophy for nearly a year now and i am very happy with it! :D Taken me a while to sign up but im here now, after 10 months of driving without even checking the tyres i thought i better so i brought the £22 accutire pressure gauge and found the...

... anyone fitted this to their Trophy? It's got a different curve than the origional one and not sure if the bumper is slightly different on the Trophy to a Cup or stnd 182......

Over on cliosport.net I have read many threads that describe the 182’s 5K kick. I had often thought that these threads over hyped the kick as I can only just feel an increase at 5200 revs in my Trophy, but recently I drove Steve’s (sm wrc) 182 and his car really does kick...

can someone quickly tell me what tyre pressures i should be running...i cant seem to find the info anywhere in the manual...cheers

I have been told by a pal to drop my pressures to 20psi all round, will this improove traction, im running crappy tyre and are not bothered by wear rates.......is this reccomened??

Just got back from a track day at bedford. had so much fun on the track and the trophy loved it. After 3-4 laps at a time of the GT circuit i didn't really notice much brake fade. I did around 120 miles on the track the car wanted to do more. One thing i noticed was on the hairpins i had unreal...

At the moment I'm running standard discs and pads with up-rated fluid and hoses. I'm looking to upgrade the front pads for my trip to Abbeville in France with easytrack next month and have pretty much decided on the Ferodo DS2500. Is it also worth changing the discs at the same time for...

For those of you that have tracked your trophy's what did you have to replace after the trackday. Obviously i'm thinking tyres, brake pads etc but did you actually have to replace them? or were they still ok?

I've just pinned down the latest rattle from the car, it's down to the Recaro seat. At the front of the seat just where the back of your knees go there is an extendable section, an it is this section that is causing a loud rattle. It's fine with a passenger because they put pressure on the seat...

Well, we have re-built the car properly and here she is. the first start up - a proper video courtesty of EVOgone :-) The First Start is a turn-over to build up the oil pressure, then we fired her up. :-) http://www.yozzasport.co.uk/upload/video/y...cup_startup.wmv (25 MB)...

Hi all. I'm seriously thinking about buying a Trophy in the next couple of months or so when the cash comes through and have a few questions. As always, after getting used to a car we start craving more power, however, with this car I don't think I'd go as far as increasing engine capacity or...

Nik, do you have the Group'N' ecu fitted to your Trophy yet? What's the verdict? Which one did you go for – STD or for use with CAI? 7MAT

after many posts from individuals i though i'd just share what happened today. I do about 3 miles a day in my car so at weekend i like to have a good blast. once the car is warm i wind it through the gears and for the first few hard blasts the vapour is terrible, water on the rear window the...

Trophy driving through Baldock, Herts on Saturday morning around 11:30. It was heading out towards Royston on the A505, probably looking forward to a good punt on the dual carriageway section. I was in a queue of traffic travelling in to Baldock having just had a good punt on the dual...

As above. What width are the alloys?

Yeah, i`ve never felt so stupid in my life, basically picked up the GF from stanstead and showing off i put my footdown.... 70-80.......100....130... mph.. what do i see behind me? Volvo estate unmarked police car ... heart dropped.. eventually pulled me... average speed over 1/2 mile 126.6mph...

With so many of us likely to buy Michelin Exalto 2 tyres as replacements for the ones already on our Trophy's, I thought it may be useful to start a thread with location/prices for the aid of all of us. So as the first entry I have found Exalto 2s at: Place: www.mytyres.co.uk Price...

What do all of you run as tyre pressure in the Trophy's stock tyres? I have not been able to find much about this in the literature owing to the Trophy's unique rims... Any suggestions openly welcomed :) O.

I have been washing the car every week but would like to wax it. I have Zymol Autowash and Zymol Cleaner Wax and after using the autowash today then using the Chamois. I applied the Cleaner Wax and doesn't really come out as good as I hoped there are swirl marks really small ones. I don't do...

What do you all recommend to use .

Often overlooked, but very important to the balance and handling of your car. If you haven’t checked your pressures in a couple of weeks, go out an do it today - if you have been driving your Trophy hard, they will usually have changed. Most people seem to use the following...
