A few questions on these as I don't really know much about them!
can you just buy a set of camber bolts i.e. h&r and get them fitted?
any need for lowering springs or anything?
how much are they and how much are they fitted/set-up?
do they drastically improve handling on their own...
I'm sitting at 21,500, almost 12 months since my last service and needing a new pair of front shoes. Over the next 5 weeks I've got to cover a few thousand miles including a trip to the Scottish Highlands.
By the time I head off to Scotland on September 8th I'll probably be around the 23K -...
Had my Trophy nearly a month now and I've a couple of quick questions about the passenger seat.
1) In the "secrets" sticky thread it says "There is a rectangular 'cubby' area under passenger front seat to store items such as wheel locking nut, first aid box etc."
Is this for real? Where is...

Well after convincing myself not to take a gamble and get a set of Yoko Parada's, I'm now on the hunt for 4 new Michelin PE2's...only problem is Mytres want £322 and Blackcircles £320.92, so roughly £80 a tyre before fitting!
Anyone got any suggestions for where I can get my PE2's...
Original Equipment Trophy Wheel and Tyre.
Wheel has kerbing (hence why it's a spare) but is perfectly straight and in otherwise mint condition (It had only done about 4000 miles when the Pikey in his transit drove at me on a very narrow road) and has a quite worn but legal PE2 on it that has...
My Trophy (bought this time last year) came from a garage that had bought it from a finance company after it had repossessed the car from its non-paying customer. Fortunately, this meant that I got a good deal at the time. Unfortunately, it meant that the car was missing a few bits and pieces...
As above, i have all these parts from my old Trophy.... not really sure on their value but feel free to make me an offer - if you're going to FCS you can collect them from me, otherwise postage can be arranged

Used as a spare for a few months, about 2mm left on the tyre, there is a nail through the tyre but I've done a track day on it and its fine.

Having tried everything I can to find a way of keeping the Trophy, it's becoming clear that finances simply will not allow it. The new R26 is on it's way and should be here at the end of the month and therefore my pride and joy has got to find a new home.
I am the second owner of the car, it...
Popped along to have my Paradas fitted this luncheon time.
All was going well & the lads were being extra careful with my wheels so not to mark them.
A guy turned up to pick up his Lambo wheels having just been fitted with fresh rubber, anyways he managed to knock one of my wheels face side...
I bought a flat yesterday, with my girlfriend. It's really nice. She has paid all the deposit because she's been on the property ladder for a few years now and I'm just getting on, not only this but to get a better mortgage she has planned to pay off both our loans. Mine is about £8.5K...
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...
I know it's not a Trophy, but I respect & prefer this place to CS tbh.
The front PE's on my 182 are well....... shot would be a good word.
There is only about 1mm of tread above the wear indicators & I can feel they are past their peak performance. Here lies the dilemma.
PE's are roughly...
right, having given up trying to find some Speedline corse 2020's for my track tyres, what are peoples opinions on the following:
Turini's - standard trophy ones, albeit in 15"
Team dynamics pro race 1.2's
OZ Ultra leggera
that's what i've narrowed the search down to.... has to be 15"...
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...
Looking into possibly setting up an exhaust group buy and i've already spoken with a retailer who will try and help us out with regards to discounts. Basically the idea is in its infancy and first we would have to establish how many people are definitely interested and what products they would...

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 - been looking to invest in a trophy for some time, but due to my age (22) havent really been able to afford the insurance, tax, servicing, etc.
However the time has come to go all out and get me one of these cracking little cars.
About to pick up number 31 tomorrow which is as...
I've never suffered from the infamous 182 top mount knock, but a couple of days ago my Trophy started making a knocking noise when maneuvering at slow speeds. I assumed this was the knock, and thought nothing of it, but it has been getting progressively worse since then.
The knock was then...
