I do experience some brake fade on some of the back roads here (fast straights then sharp blind bends).
Ferodo DS2500 pads seem to be popular on this forum but I came across the following (see http://www.balancemotorsport.co.uk/prod ... lAodrFaCGQ )

Please remember these pads are...
So im just about to book a driver training day through car limits. One of there airfield days at north weald. Before I booked I just thought I would see if any one has done this kind of thing anywhere else.
I know some people have done this one and its recommended, just curious whats out...
my car has developed a misfire on cylinder 1 (nearest the oil filler cap) most likely due to having to drive through a massive puddle on sunday evening. I have already tried swapping spark plugs, and the same cylinder still misfires so i have narrowed it down to either the coil or the leads...
I have just purchased a new set of rear seats for my Trophy and now im looking to sell my original ones.
If anybody needs to replace theres or knows anyone who would want them please send me a PM.
Any ideas as to what i would get for them should i sell them?
Many Thanks
Marc
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...
I was looking through some really quite excellent pictures that I found somewhere on the internet of some Clios that went to the South of France (there was a Trophy there, by the way). Amongst the cars was a Liquid Yellow V6 255, but it had what appeared to be the very same Recaro seats as the...

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'm thinking of booking a trackday soon....
Apart from the obvious things like insurance, helmet etc
I was wondering if any of the trackday veterans on here could give me any advice.
I'm looking for info' like, what should i take with me? Do i have to tape my lights? Do i have to fit a tow...
...after a year or so of faffing about (well I did have to save up :lol: ) ive finally bought myself Trophy No. 131 (tup)
Bought from my local dealer at ware garages, who did me a fantastic deal both on the trophy and on my trade-in, its a one (female) owner, 4,600 mile, 55reg which has...

I'm drowning in stupidity over there. Someone talk some sense into those people who think the Trophy would corner better if it didn't cock a rear wheel under hard braking and cornering. Include some pictures of FWD race cars doing the...

Hi all,
Its a long shot but I thought I would post anyway.
we are looking for a trackday project and have settled on a Clio Trophy,
we have an UK S2000 which we have for sale on Pistonheads, It has 36,000 miles and is in outstanding condition. We do have someone interested so it may be...

Sponsored by Honda (hence the new CTR making the cut!) but great all the same, my first two cars are in it and in the right colours. Two other cars I'd love to own too, DC2 and Integrale.
Bits to laugh at;
Flawed dynamics of the 205...
Anyone considered/had a service done in France? Would it be cheaper? I`m pretty sure warranty wouldn`t be affected if a Renault dealer was used. Only asking as a service is due and I`m off to France at Easter. Cheers, Ian.
Mentioned selling my Williams Clio the other day, now cleaned (looking good) and on sale. Also LHD 106 Rallye with trackday suspension and tyre mods too. Both priced at £2995 - I don't really want to sell either but needs must. Details are on classified eBay ads. Already some interest in...
Hi
I have 6 Yokohama 195/50/15 Yokohama trackday tyres for sale.
2 are road legal and the other 4 will survive another few trackdays.
I'm looking for £150 + p&p for all 6.
I can deliver within a 30 mile radius of Reading FOC or they can be collected...
I have some very clean Clio Trophys in stock. Green slip through on car with cherished transfer so all available now. One is Sam's old car #449, taken back in p/x - it has the Brembo Discs, Ferodo pads and braided hoses upgrade plus a Powertec filter.
Cars priced from £11295, but some...
I have booked at trackday at Donington for Friday 6th April which involves 20 minute sessions every hour from 10-5 i think and then as its the donny show and as i am up there all weekend with mates, I have 3 other 15 minute sessions over the saturday and sunday.
Question is, how will standard...
I have 2 of these brand new in the boxes with all original packaging.
They are 15" with 4x100mm pcd, ET 43mm I bought them to stick on the front of my 182 as trackday wheel but Im needing new PE2s and brakes just now so freeing up some cash.
FYI with 195 50 15 tyres they have the same...
Right, I'm just about to place my order for new front discs and pads, I've decided on Brembo High Carbon discs, as they are a cheaper and better alternative than the OE discs (which are often specified as these discs anyway), but after trawling through all the brake posts, I'm still bloody...
|I've suffered three punctures. All of which required a new tyre. And in each case the Michelin PE2 needed to be ordered - so my 'baby' was off the road until the new tyre arrived. Pain in the ass, but looking at the other tyre related forums it seems that this is the only tyre for the Trophy...
Its time for some new brake pads. I was going to get some Feroda DS2500's but I'm struggling to find these. Has anyone any experience or opinions on the Mintex Extreme range? I can get these from our local motor factor.I don't intend using the car on track days, I just want some good all round...
Morning all
Can you fit 15's to a Trophy ok?
Any recommendations for lightweight wheels and I'm thinking of trying Toyo 888R's so if anyones used them any comments would be appreciated.
Thanks
Matt.
