I found it hard getting the info about removing the OE gear knob so thought I would post up my method on here for those who don't fancy getting the hacksaw out.
1. Pop the silver insert out with a flat bladed screwdriver, to avoid damage.
2. Heat the bastard up with a hairdryer until it is...
I know this has probably been done to death but friend of mine has to sell his EVO5, too expensive with the arrival of another rugrat. He can't afford a Trophy so wants to get the next best, opinions please.
Have tried searching but not found anything.
Has anyone gone to a DC5 from a Trophy?
Or vice versa from a DC5 to a Trophy?
Am thinking about what i'm going to get next(soon)and i love the DC5 Integra and i want a WHITE car!!!!
Have even been thinking about getting the Trophy "Wrapped" in...
F*ck me, WHAT an engine! :shock: And gearbox for that matter. It's more torquey than Type-R lumps of old and still has the same mental top end. The gearbox is so much better than a Clio's and the razor sharp throttle response / lack of engine inertia means heel 'n toe changes are...

Steve has a couple i'm sure at the moment,well worth the drive as the cars are always very well prepared and he is a very nice bloke.
My trophy needs new pads and discs all round, I'm thinking of upgrading to some that feel more solid and that don't squirm under heavy braking as with the standard ones.......
I don't really know much about these things, anyone got any recommendations? Also, how does upgrading affect the...
Ok, this may sound a bit random or stupid. But how does everyone dry their cars after a wash and what products do they use to do it.
I have my car permagarded and want something to get her nice a dry after a rinse. I have never been a big fan of the shammy leather but maybe its cos i bought...
Im going to look at a VX220 tomorrow! Really can't decide whether i want one or to stick with the trophy? What are peoples thoughts on the VX220? And do you think its worth the change?? Cheers

Evo descrivbe the Trophy as 'the most fun you can have on 3 wheels' but my question is how do you get it on 3 wheels?
Is it something that you should be able to do everyday or do you have to really push the car so much that you're very unlikely to achieve it safely on the road?
Can you...
I have three Trophys available - all 55 plate and ranging from 12000m to 19000m (this 19k one was Sam from the forum's old car so has the Magnex exhaust, Powertec induction and Brembo/Ferodo/Braided hoses etc. upgrades). If you're considering a Trophy and have dropped by the forum for some...
Found this on a french site , but for the life of me i can,t find any write ups or reports on this, think its about 250 quid, green cotton ram airs are used on most wrc cars, quality is superb on them, yet i'm stumped if i can find a report, anybody else can help me out in finding one

2. Its a standard trophy so you'll all have seen loads of them before anyway.
Loving the car though, handling is superb.
Hi
Just like to say a big THANKS to Graham at stockport for the superb job he did on mine yesterday.
The screen was that clear I thought he'd taken it out :shock: :lol:
Got lots of "wow thats looks clean !" on motorway journey home (tup)
Well worth a visit.
A friend of mine from the DC5 & TRO forum is selling his DC5 & I'd thought I'd post it up here as a few people have been showing some interest in these lately & deservedly so.

Solicitors bill arrived, got to find the money to pay it somehow, so unfortunately 259 has to go to pastures new.... :(

In for a service apparently.
Mine was in too, for some 'bits and bobs', namely sorting out a rattly boot catch and fixing the passenger seat which wasn't sliding when I tipped it to get into back.
AKS Renault seem like a nice bunch; very polite and friendly.
Hi
I've been a proud owner of a Trophy for about a month or so now. I'm getting to the 12,000 mile service and was wondering if any of you kind folk knew of any specialists (non-renault) that would be capable of servicing the Trophy in the Devon/Exeter/Somerset region without invalidating the...
Just a quick one, when I start driving in the V6 the doors lock once its doing about 10 mph, in the Trophy they don't. Is there any easy way to make the doors lock like the V6 does? or do I need the software, laptop and cable/plug arrangement? :?
Thanks Lee
I am considering buying a second hand 993 as a weekend car (or perhaps as a daily driver and turning the Trophy into a weekend car). Something with around 30-50k miles on it.
Has anyone had any experience owning a 993 (or the previous model) in the past? I'm interested even if you've driven...
