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...

Just an off chance, would anyone know what the best wheel/tyre combo and offset for an L-Reg Corsa B Gsi?? I know its not a trophy, but it has to make do in hard times, and def needs rid of the 14inch jobbies!

I am looking to get my dampers rebuilt and change the rears to konis in the nxt month or so...but Was wondering about changing my springs - which are a good buy? I used to have Eibach Sportlines on my 172 cup but they were mainly for looks, where the prolines seem to be better for the handling...

Hey. :D Ive just had these fitted to the Trophy along with the powerflex dogbone mount. I decided to buy these mounts because while back I had my car put on the RR and I was shocked by the amount of movement from the Engine under acceleration and when backing off the pedal at high revs. The...

interested in changing my rear,s on my T ?

Hey, Just wondered if its possible to have climate control fitted in the Trophy, say a unit from a 172, easy done or not worth the hassle? Also the rain sensor on the wind shield along with the relevant wiper stalk? Cheers!

Hi has anyone fitted this to trophy? if so feed back/thoughts or similar products?? http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=2554

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...? ...

hi ya all i have decided to do couple bits to my T. would like to no your thoughts about what i want to order. milltek cat back with a sports cat :) group N engine and gearbox mounts, adjustable rear gaz coil over, piper cross induction kits, group N clutch re map and chip. i am having my cam...

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...

I'm going to lower the CoG and stiffen up the car and it seems Mark Fish is recommended as the best supplier of new springs for the trophy. Can anyone tell me what options he offers and the prices, i gather a few on here already have them fitted. I've tried emailing him twice this week but so...

Finally got some decent photos of my Swiss Trophy on KW V2 Coilovers...

I recently saw a few people on here saying that, now the weather is warmer, they have adjusted their dampers to a stiffer setting. I was puzzled by this. Well, maybe sceptical is the word. I could see that it would improve the T's handling, but I thought that it would feel harsh and be a...

I bought a used Trophy recently that had been fitted with KW V2 coilovers for track use. I'm thinking of switching back to the OE sachs dampers. The sachs were taken off at around 40k miles - should I get them serviced before I re-fit them? Is there any way to tell if they need doing while...

Hi fella's I know this has been covered many times but does anyone have any clear pictures of the thumb wheel preferably with it removed if not any close ups would be good. Also the strut top mount bearings, how much if any play should there be in them as the ones on mine look like they have...

http://s2.photobucket.com/albums/y29/ar ... ch%202009/ Had a cracking time and saw a Trophy up there in the mountains too but can't remember the reg I was concentrating too much...... :D

Hi All, Well today I decided to check the rear disc pads, which I did, but ended up cleaning the inside wheels, arches and shocks. (sad muppet) :) Decided to do the fronts and noticed the adjustable shocks still had the locking pins in !!!! Well they don't now, couldn't help myself from...

Use this to post up vandalised trophys - IF I can find them then the silver ones, striped ones and the one with the tow bar will be in here.

Having been snowed in two years running, I'm thinking my trophy has a profound disslike to snow. Ok, I know it is not designed for it. I love my Trophy, but this gets me down every year. My dad has a VW Passat oil burner (No I say!) and has no problems what so ever. So people, what cars are good...

Arrived Today. Cant wait to fit them and test them out. Ill fit them before the weekend. Here are some pics.

Myself and some friends ran a rolling road day for our club, 30 cars run in total! Mr T managed: 184.6bhp @ 6970rpm 148.9lb/ft @ 5790rpm For a completely standard engine i'm quite impressed, and it's on 50k now so well used, apparently the F4R makes more power with decent mileage on it! Goes...

Solid top mounts are going to be fitted to my car shortly. Im going for the KTR Solid Top Mounts which look very similar to the Compbrake ones. Those of you with Compbrake top mounts fitted I want to know whether you have experienced any movement in the mounts resulting in geometry changes...

:oops: Fed up of my broken trophy suspension, i'll need to get some temporary suspension to use while the sachs are up being refurbed at the front, and i'll have to shell out £200-300 for some koni or sachs rear dampers. Then i think, why not just chuck some bilstein or H&R coilovers on...

I'm going to look at an '05 with 22k on the clock in a couple of hours at a local garage, they reckon it's 24/500. I don't see it registered here so maybe not a forum user but just thought it was worth a quick check. Also, being new to this model is there anything I should be looking for? I...

hi folks, bit of a strange one, started to get a little whistling sound which has now got even worse from the exhaust over the christmas hols. It was coming from the join between the cat and the middle section pipe. Took the cat off and it looks like the ovel part where it butts up to the middle...

What should i be paying for 2nd hand trophy shocks??

The ride with these springs is greatly improved, firmer but not too hard - you lose a lot of the standard body roll and it will look better too. Full details can be found here: http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=849 (covered 3k miles) £85 posted, £75 collected pm if interested
