throttle

I've bought the Peugeot 106 Rallye LHD from Lee, should be delivered down in the next couple of days. With it's Bilsteins and Eibach upgrades it's kind of a spiritual (older) sister to the Trophy so I thought I'd post on here as most would appreciate the mods he's done to it.

Beginning to get used to the power/speed of my trophy now and not far off paying it off in full, fancy an upgrade, i love the handling but would like at bit more power at the top end. Having looked at k-tech site and Yozzasport quite like the look of a throttle body/ turbo conversion, pref...

Hi Everyone, I'm always nosing around on here and love the site, but I don't post very often. :oops: Hopefully this question is relevant to most standard trophy owners and I'm not the only one! I know that the brakes are the weakest link for the trophy, but I'm...

I am right on the verge of buying a Trophy, and have been reading this forum furiously to get myself up to speed. Anything particular I need to look out for on a secondhand Trophy? I will announce the number of the car once purchased, and apply to get another star! Then it's...

when i'm at a junction holding the revs at say 1500 it seems to pulse from 1500 - 2000rpm, and im sure that its not a jittery leg :lol: ? is this me or is the Trophy taking over!

Hi People :D My 4 months with the Mini are over! Great car, no reason to sell it but I had the urge ! Anyone care to take a guess as to the replacement (pick it up tomorrow hopefully) Correct guess wins a jelly bean

Hi, Booking car in for service and enquired about prices if I provide my own oil. Woman tried telling me I need 5.5 litres of oil. I've done a search on past threads and I can't find any mention of needing more than 5 litres. The oil change guide in the forum suggests you only need 4.75...

:-)

Seems i'm always banging on with probs anyone any ideas with this? From cold can pull off but there is a total lack of power tiil it warms a little, plenty of revs but wiill just not move. Has only just started, admittedly have still only done 2k (i know shame on me) Sorry no idea what...

Fact is you cant get them anymore. Well not new. And i want one. So i have decided to build one. Thats right im going to take a mk2 shell, buy a 182 engine and build my own Trophy. I thought this was a good a place as any to document my progress in this project. I intend to get hold of a...

HOW MANY GIRLS ARE IN HERE???? if any, how old and er ASL lol well a and l cos obviously there girls i mean female dammit!

Sorry guys. if someone could delete my New Trophy msg would be grateful. like i said am new to the site.

Taking over from Pete G's post in the number plate thread, how does everyone use their ESP? (no responses about extra sensory perception please! :wink: ) Day to day driving, I just leave it on, you never know when you may need it's assitance (oil on the roads etc). When I'm driving hard...

As I had today off work I decided to modify the air-intake system on my Trophy by removing the air-valve located near the horn to see what would happen as most after-market CAI on the market (ITG Maxogen & Viper etc) recommend removing the valve on installation. To my surprise the cars feels...

Finally, after what seems years of change after change, the AWT website is now live. Its not finished and there is alot still to put up, but that will be added as things move along. A massive thanks to Craig who put in more time, effort and design though into this than was really...

We have a lesser clio model in our family - a 1.2 16V. I'm 6'4" and whilst the driving position is ok, heal and toe is virtually impossible. How do the seats differ in terms of height in the 182 and trophy? Are they much lower and alow more room directly under the steering wheel for heel and...

Over on cliosport.net I have read many threads that describe the 182’s 5K kick. I had often thought that these threads over hyped the kick as I can only just feel an increase at 5200 revs in my Trophy, but recently I drove Steve’s (sm wrc) 182 and his car really does kick...

got a few thing sto sort out, 1) Emissions warning light started flashing today, not too serious I would hope, since I've got a bit of driving to do before I go in next week 2) Boot catch broken 3) Very lumpy idle for the first few minutes when the car is first turned on. Impossible to...

Just how fast can you corner with these things? I think i'm having to re-learn my entry speeds into corners. I entered a roundabout today with no drop in my approach speed and flung it out the same road I came in with nothing more than a bit of squeaking from the tyres. It really is quite...

This a bit a long post, apologies but hopefully of interest to more than just me :) So I read all of http://cliotrophy.co.uk/forum/viewtopic ... 74&start=0 very interesting, noting the follwing I am considering going for the 12mm bolts (-2 deg, 0.00 toe-out) but am now thinking about...

After an excellent few days out in Germany, i thought i'd post the pics taken over the weekend. http://crowspeed.net/photos/ringtrip06/album/

Ive noticed something when i break going round a medium corner at around 70 -80mph...not a harsh break a general one, the back end swings up and makes me very nervous to thrash the fiesty beast.....dosent do it as much on right handers. i never noticed befor but i had a full set of £65 budget...

Ok, I currently own a S2 106 Rallye. Absolutly love the car to bits, I've owned it for 3 and a half years and is standard on the outside (including the white steelies) and I have a straight through exhaust + de-cat. I've toyed with getting something faster for a few months now, but I don't...

Just got back from a track day at bedford. had so much fun on the track and the trophy loved it. After 3-4 laps at a time of the GT circuit i didn't really notice much brake fade. I did around 120 miles on the track the car wanted to do more. One thing i noticed was on the hairpins i had unreal...

Throttle bodies are obviously the next big thing for Clio Sports!!!! Buy the mag from WH Smith.

Reading all these reports about what might be 'normal' for a Trophy (the suspension clunk?) and what is definately not (the sticking throttle) made me think we need some feedback from the guys who developed the car at Renault. Maybe they need some feedback from US too! This forum is probably...

When she went off to be rebuilt / stored last year, i didn't do the bonnet properly, and this happened. She has had a new engine; complete re-fresh from the bearings up and load of other new toys that we will be showing off over the year. New Bonnet, Windscreen, Bonnet Pins and Braking...

:)

Another tech question poeple. I have a cat back system and a viper on my cup. Will it run lean on the rolling road day tomrrow? Im a bit worried!! :( Thanks iain
