Hello chaps, I had my camber and toe set up just before christmas, went for 1.5 neg camber and I was going for around the standard 12mins toe out, as per the common concensus. After speaking to the suspension expert at Northampton Motorsport, who were doing the setup I was advised to go for toe...
Well ive been daydreaming of owning a trophy since 2005 when they came out

New to the forum and the Trophy – just bought 415. I am having trouble sourcing two brand new Pilot Exalto PE2s locally to me here in west Kent. Any idea where I can find them for around £110 each?
I get a deep creak/groan sort of noise when pulling away. And no it's not the ABS system, it does it whenever pulling away from a standstill. Only started this week really, and i think it's related to my worn wishbone balljoints.
Normally i'd think engine mounts but it dunno. Anyone else had...
Hi guys.
Having a nightmare with the car lately. When im travelling 60+ MPH the car feels like its not planted and changing lanes on the M-way or dualcarrage way is becoming very scary. When traveling at speed and steering lightly (ie changing lanes) everything feels loose and the car seems to...
Hey guys,
When I bought my Trophy a year ago the first thing I did was upgrade the brakes (to the little known CRN grooved discs and EBC RedStuff pads). I have to be honest they are actually very, very good (and I got them cheaper as they were part of a group buy in which my Good Lady also...

My other half is taking my Trophy on a 1:1 tuition track day to Goodwood in August and need to insure the car - just in case the worst happens! God forbid!
We just have fully comp insurance at the mo, and wondered whether I can just 'up' the insurance with our existing insurance provider -...

and details of the new megane R26-R (not sure about those wheels)
Hi all.
Wonder if anyone has any idea what may be up with my car.
Whenever i ease of the accelerator there is a knocking sound from front of car. Not a very harsh sound and some times sounds like a ufo type noise !
Its not apparent when accelerating so i am assuming its only when engine...
Tonight i went to the BP garage in shiremore, northeast, as i left i hit a pot hole on the exit of the forecourt, it felt like i had ran over a horse. Got about 300m down the road and knew a had a flat tyre, stopped and used 2 cans of tyre foam which just managed to get me home.
On inspecting...

I've posted before that i'm going to get a live map done on the car when the 24k service is due, well it's only a matter of a couple of weeks off now and so was wondering who, if anyone wanted either tag along or join in - Paul of RST has mentioned he may do a discount for multiple cars.
They...
I'm just wondering for those people that have gone from 182/172 variants to the Trophy if you notice the Trophy is snappier?
I'm still not fully use to mine due to the conditions and lack of opportunities to really test the handling. I've noticed you need to work harder to keep the Trophy in...
I went to Bedford aurodrome the other day and-
In the wet morning the Clio was very tail happy and a whole lot of fun. :lol:
As the track started to dry the car became amazing. As the front started to slide, a very slight lift would bring the back end gently into line with no real danger...

So I was sitting in a tyre fitter this AM getting four new tyres :twisted: for my van, idly flicking through Evo's tyre awards for 2007 supplement as tested on a golf GTI.
Goodyear came top, Michelin came about half way down.
Second overall, and first in several categories came tyres by...
Well, I've had No.99 for 18 months now and I think it's time to part ways!
I'm just in the process of buying a flat with my girlfriend and we really don't need 2 cars, plus selling the Trophy and foregoing the overheads (insurance, tyres, petrol etc...) would help to clear my debt much...

this is a group buy:
I need 9 others who want brembo max disks for their 172 or 182 - same disk.
Cost will be £76 including postage for both front disks.
First 10 to fill the list will grab a bargain, they normally retail for over £100.

I am buying a car that needs a little spending on it including a 12,000 mile service, new front tyres, road tax, small dent repair (paint intact) and possibly a new wheel.
I really want to get the most out of this Trophy so what I want to know is:
If you could make only 3 modifications to...

out of interest, how does the trophy suspension compare with a clio 182 on aftermarket coilovers say H&R's.
which is likely to perform better.
If nobody knows then I will let you know what the answer is because me and some friends are doing a trackday...obviously my trophy, a 172 cup on...
