Hi, Im new so go easy on me please :)
I'm 17, and have a 05 1.2 clio...Completely standard
I have just had it valued at £5000 ish..
Now ive had a look around for a 182, with around 50k on the clock and there in the region of £6000, so I could afford one
Confused.com gave me...
Now I have my Trophy, which I chose because it would be a fast car on track without modification, I realise, that modifying cars is just too much fun to go without, so I will be modifying the Trophy :)
Just for a bit of fun, and maybe to make the fun last, and perhaps to help others...
Hi guys, Ive just bought Trophy number 266, Im a very happy 20yr old, unfortunetly I wont be insuring her for another 2 weeks until i hit 21, so she will be parked in the garage for whats going to be the longest 2 weeks of my life. Ive been interested in the Trophy since it was released in 05...
Well last time i was in here i had a black 182 and got slated for putting sach struts on it... :)
well i got rid of the 182 and got a vee:
got rid of the vee and now have a super charged exige :D
05/55 car, so still in warranty.
Everything that came with a new car is included, 2 Keys - now with personalised carbon fibre keyrings!, Tyre inflators, locking wheel bolts etc.
The interior and engine are completely standard.
Suspension and brakes uprated by Mark Fish Motorsport...
Is it possible to do a straight swap for the FF's interior light, which (I believe) has a map light built-in to it? I'm doing a navigational rally tomorrow night and have just had to rig up a load of cardboard and masking tape to shield the light from my side of the car... :lol:
If anyone...
I went to Bedford aurodrome the other day and-
In the wet morning the Clio was very tail happy and a whole lot of fun. :lol:
As the track started to dry the car became amazing. As the front started to slide, a very slight lift would bring the back end gently into line with no real danger...

Just got back from fitting Maxogen & Yozzasport exhaust.
Errrr, yes dear it is louder :-w [-X [-( :-w
I'll get some photos up later, just need to level exhaust out & fit new rear rubbers :roll:
So i took the Trophy to get it checked to see what kind of condition the brakes were in as i was getting some travel on the pedal..... £46 later and the results were in,
pads 60% worn on fronts and 70% worn on backs, ok so i've got another couple of thousand miles left.
i asked what the...

What rate are they(in lbs if poss)?
What is the standard ride height?
Who makes them?
I am thinking of changing my spings to Eibach Prolines.
Anyone done this on a trophy?
Is it worth it>
What about geo changes(standard & track)?
Cheers :o
Hi i have for sale a set of Clio 182 Cup springs, there off the car as i havee fitted Eibach Springs to it now. There in excellent condition and only been on the car for 14000 miles. I only want £40 quid for the lot.

For Sale….
My Williams 2 for which I have owned for just over 2 years. I bought it on 72,000 miles, in the 2 years I have owned it I have only covered aprox 9,000 miles! It is currently on 81,500 miles.
The service book is almost fully stamped up...
It is with a heavy heart that i am putting my Williams clio 2 up for sale.
When i bought this car it was with the intention of restoring her however a change of job has resulted in a 600 mile per week commute so i think a diesel is going to be the way forward for me despite the car returning...
A few questions on these as I don't really know much about them!
can you just buy a set of camber bolts i.e. h&r and get them fitted?
any need for lowering springs or anything?
how much are they and how much are they fitted/set-up?
do they drastically improve handling on their own...
I thought i'd ask on here as ClioSport was going to give me all sorts of silly answers.
Right the 182 is due her annual service end of Sept, done no where near the mileage, but want things kept up to date & make sure everything is as it should be.
The car will go to Mike @ RenTech after...
Has anyone else read about the JDM Civic Type R and getting a bit tempted?
Autocar clocked it doing 0 - 100 in 15.98 secs while the Megane R26 clocked 16.66. Not much in it but interesting all the same.
EVO gave it a good review too, hailing it as the best Honda on sale at the moment. I...
I have found a potential M3 which is priced about £5k under market value. It was listed on Autotrader for about 4 hours but then vanished.
I got this email from the seller after a few questions. What do you think? The confusing part is that the escrow company checks out with eBay...
As title says after an exhaust janspeed maybs or sumtyn simular and a set of trophy alloys to swoop for a set of mint FF182 alloys.
If any 1 knows of let us know, or pm me
cheers

Entering competition in 2002, the ultimate version of the Clio has rapidly become the benchmark of the Super 1600 class. Used by the official Clio Team as well as private teams throughout Europe (47 cars as at March 2004), it has been collecting titles and victories.
Based on the Clio 1.6...
Well... which car? :)
I find myself looking longingly at the Liquid Yellow (without scum stickers) Megane R26 that blasts the opposite direction to myself every afternoon on the way home from work. I just think it's a gorgeous car, and I think I may have to own one.
Being less realistic...
I was very excited to read about the new Japanese Civic type R. Apart from a boring 4 door saloon body, the prospect of 225 PS, 8,400 rev limit, reasonable torque, Brembo 4 pot callipers, 18" lightweight rims, gear type LSD, proper independent rear suspension etc was very tempting. Still not a...
Gave them both a clean and the CF bonnet has been removed from the Liquid now... as well as removing the Apex springs and fitting some Sportlines :D
and a hint of what a white 182 might look like :wink:
Just a thought but i was wondering if it was possible to replace the manual set up in the Trophy with the digital climate control from the full fat 182?
I'm thinking its not going to be as simple as swapping the panels and hooking up the wiring - but you never know. I have no knowledge of...
