Just got myself a second hand wheel and looking to get it retrimed. Has anybody had theirs done? Photos if possible please :) Anyone know if retrimers would take old 'leather' :lol: off? or do they go over that with the retrim?

As a few people on here know last year I was the first customer to have Ktecs low pressure turbo kit fitted to my car. After a little while the turbo bug bit and I stripped the engine and rebuilt it using full forged pistons and rods as well as fitting a paddle clutch for good measure. I'm now...

Read a few topics on how moving the wires about under passenger seat makes this fault go away. tried that a few times and it does work. But not a permanant remedy... After having a look at it today the reason for this fault is that the wiring is getting caught in the seat runners and mine were...

Recently when driving my temparature gauge is fluctuating, but always between where it should be around half way up and cold, it only happens when the car is warm, could it be that my thermostat has had? anybody else had this problem? Any help guys much appreciated Cheers Andrew

Seeing as my insurance is up for renewal in Feb, i thought i'd best have a quick look around to see what is what. I am currently with privilege, 5 pts (an indiscretion remaining from when i was 19 in my old Clio 1.4RT en route to a festival), 24 now, employed, 6yrs NCB and i think (monthly) i am...

Hi fellas After selling my Trophy I bought a 172 cup to build into a sprint and hillclimb car. I may have posted this elsewhere but cant remember (must be my age!) Heres the link to my blog. Any questions post it here! http://w193tfvhillclimbcar.blogspot.com/ :D

Hey all, So I actually managed to drive a trophy at the weekend, my first time. It was a little disappointing but I have to say I don't think it was the best maintained example so that may be the reason for it. The seats were fabulous (if the driving position a little upright),the steering...

saw a trophy this morning, coming pass on the 'rabbit' roundabout heading from Winterbourne into Little Stoke direction. anyone from on here? I wasnt in the trophy though.... :oops:

To make room for this: :twisted:

has anyone fitted matched manifolds? sport cams? been looking at K-Tec ones and been debating it. and de-cats?? who's got one has it made a difference and has everyone just pulled out the emissions light?

Had a run on some Dastek rollers. Best run was 156.8bhp at the wheels and 192.6bhp at the fly. Interestingly I had just fitted a green cotton IK and have yet to fit the CAFs. The difference between bonnet up and bonnet down was 4bhp. Not an exact test but give and indication to how much CAFs...

Just bought a trophy after having a few 106 gti's and my god is there a difference. Never known such great car in the bends. Number 093 by the way bought from a really nice guy and he said the only fault is that it won't play cd's. Radio plays fine but if you put a cd in it comes up with an...

I need a new splitter and in the VW scene fitting a Leon Cupra R front splitter to certain cars is very popular so I wonder if it will suit the Clio? You may think German (well Spanish!) car parts are expensive but it's only £20ish from main dealer (some rip off merchants are asking £40 on...

Hi, I'm the new owner of Trophy No.243 T9PHY which I collected today after some fraught negotaiting with Renault dealer who had it. I know it was owned by a member on here who I contacted before buying it, and I thank him for his information. It's my new daily runner to replace my late spec...

Hello everyone, Just wondering how the trophy compares to the civy type r ep3. Sat in a ep3 yesterday and I was really impressed. I went on fast laps to compare the two and the pre facelift ep3 was faster than a T round Rockingham by 0.4 seconds. But Iknow that fast laps...
