    changing dampers

    Have just spoken to Rentech in Portsmouth about my Trophys hard ride. I love the car but using it every day, sometimes its just too hard.

    Factory Camber Settings?

    I'm getting my geometry fine tuned within next couple of weeks. I'm yet decided if I'm going to go for -2 camber or just optimise/correct the factory settings. Does anyone know what the factory camber/toe settings should be exactly?

    Disaster

    A few weeks ago when driving home I managed to do the impossible and spin the Trophy!!

    Vibrating door panels

    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to better secure the interior door panels to stop them vibrating every time you turn the stereo above 1 decibel? I had the same problem with my Mk.1 172. Good old Renault build quality.
