Hey there, Time to sell the beloved trophy! I can say in confidence this is the best car I have ever owned! The only reason for sale is that im moving to Australia. Only owned the car since January this year, im the 3rd owner. Car has only done 19800 miles. Immaculate condition in and out...

Yes tread shuffle not truffle shuffle! :lol: Well my question is, is there such a thing? If so what does it mean! I ask because had the Trophy booked in yesterday as im noticing small knocking noise when moving the steering wheel ever so slightly from side to side! You can also feel it...

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...

is there any point or are they already plenty stiff

After my recent trip to the Ring in my Trophy I felt the car was lacking outright power which is no surprise as I used to track and ring an E39 M5. I bought the car with the intention of using it as a daily hack but a have really grown fond of it especially it's capability on track. I now need...

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

Does anyone know - or know of a link to - the differences between the 182 Cup, 182 Cup Pack, and the 182 Trophy? I've got a vague idea but by no means certain. Cheers.

Sometimes when driving at low speed I can hear a quite squeeking noise coming from the front of the car. The T has only done 25k miles so I'm not sure what t could be. I notice it on a road surface thats un-even where it causes the front end to bounce/skip along such as on cobbles. Could it just...

A couple of sundays back Steve was kind enough to take me out for a run in his cup and show me why he decided to change from the trophy.. and then passed over to me for some fun down the the rs clios favourite territory the bumpy back roads/lanes, and now the chassis and the size over the trophy...

hi, Been looking to get another car seeing as I have blown my car up at the minute. Now while I love my type R I can't really risk blowing it up again while doing track days. So had a look at swapping to a hot hatch. Looked at all the cars and decided it has to be the clio 182. Now what I...

2003/03 Clio 172 Cup in Mondial Blue. 93000m with FSH, a folder full of invoices including servicing, discs and pads, KTEC cat back exhaust, braided lines, cam belt and aux belt change at 72000m. Just had new coil pack at a cost of £250+VAT. Only two owners. Refurbished alloys and good tyres...

Hey just had some new tyres put on the front of my trophy and they said the old one were really worn on the outside edge of the tyre and this is due to tracking so they did the tracking! what worries me is they set it up as a 182 cup as they didnt have a clue what the standard settings for the...

..........hi all. Wondering what the features are over the 182 CUP or 172 CUP? Have 2 for sale locally and seems the right time to buy. Your thoughts? Thanks

what exactly is "corkscrewing" as mentioned by Harry T in this months Evo....?

interested in putting new on the rear any ideas???

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?!

Been an MR2 fan for some years now, and currently own this 1995 Rev 3. Looks fairly stock, but has full coilover suspension, and the old 3S-GTE 2 litre motor was pulled out (when the previous owner, decided to have some cowboy rebuild it), and it was replaced by a 3VZ-FE, 3 litre, 24 valve...

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...

Another great meet. Not as much convoy driving as the previous few outings but a good opportunity to chat and also to get some passenger rides! (Big thanks to Dallas for negotiating the tight gaps, 4 up in the blue barge! Also to Jules and Luke for back to back Orb race/soft comparisons!). Here...

Hey folks, Not quite sure what happened....went for a drive up the A1(M) from Herts to North Yorkshire in my Trophy and drove back home again in my Civic :? :lol: Was planning on keeping the Trophy until at least after Spa (which I obviously cannot drive the FD2 around in :oops: ) or maybe...

Yesterday my trophy developed this dodgy noise on the way back home from work, it was a pop followed by a scraping/cracking noise of metal on metal. I have checked the rear suspension over pretty thoroughly, and can't find any problems! The only things that i haven't eliminated are the dampers...

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

Just testing the water but mrs Tonto has decided she wants to get rid of the Trophy :( . But she has said she would take a Megane as the replacement :( So if anyones potentially looking to swap a nice R26 perferably black or white with Recaros in the next few months then pop me a PM...

My girlfriend is about to purchase a new car, well, used but around the age of my Trophy. I have told her that she has to start looking after this one and it has surfaced the discussion regarding car care. My car was Permaguarded by duffer987 and for the last 2 and a bit years under my wing, I...
