    H&R Coilovers - Definately a worthy Sachs replacement.

    Well, after fitting them last week, setting the front camber to -2 degrees negative on Friday and doing the Llandow trackday with CS yesterday, i can safely say that the H&R's are very worthy replacement to the Sachs. Handling is nigh on exactly the same as the Sachs/Sportline combo that i had...

    Trophy on Coilovers. Slammed Yo.

    Or perhaps not. This is a Trophy afterall ... Handling > Lowz:up: On Sachs / Sportlines On H&R's Very pleased so far, ride is lovely, far better than the Sachs in fact, which would imply that they are probably a little softer. Havent really pushed it particularly hard as the camber/toe...

    front SACHS

    The dampers came off the car to get the stock springs replaced with Sportilines and found out the right side damper wept some oil. About 36k old, the left side one s in rock hard/perfect working order, right one s on its way to die and would definitely need a refurb. I'm not going for a rebuilt...

    Who hasn't re-furbed the dampers yet ?

    Having been looking for another trophy for around a month now and there seems to be quite a few that still havent had the dampers re furbed yet. Just wondering how many on here are still running their cars without problems?

    Trophy suspension

    How much for the complete trophy suspension? Thinking of putting it on my 182 as the coilovers I have are so bad I would rather have carved my own from wood. I had a browse on the forum but was unsure what the prices are or even if anyone has a setup secondhand if they have been...

    Guys, I need your help on where to get a new coil spring for my Trophy as it has collapsed. The MOT was last week and it failed and trying to find a coil spring is like trying to find a DoDo!! Where can I get one? A standard one will be fine just now until I look for coilovers. Any help...

    Hi :D Im new to the forum and have joined to gain a little knowledge from trophy owners about the car. Hope to be purchasing a Trophy at the weekend which seems like a good one but I have a few questions. How often should the dampers be refurbed? I hear £400 is the going rate? The ones done...

    Ktec top mount saga continues...

    Well, after getting loud donging noises when maneuvering, and people on here saying the top mounts would cause it, the garage I use also confirmed this. Ktec said to use engine oil to lubricate the top mounts last week, which i did, from within the engine bay, but it made no difference. I was...

    My Springs are turning within their mounting cups??

    I'm a bit perplexed by this, within the last month or so, i've been getting loud twanging/donging noises when maneuvering. The other weekend i checked over the complete suspension, to make sure noting was loose. I found no faults, but i tried tightening the front damper assembly top nut inside...
