Hi Guys
I'm going down to France later this year, so I thought I'd ask Orbisoud how much one of their exhausts costs to collect from the factory gates. This is their reply;
hello,
price line complete racing : 1006 euros ht.
soft : 1087 euros ht.
best...
(finally) Picked up No250 today and drove it home the long way from Essex to Surrey, avoided the M25 as much as possible, and then spent the whole night grinning, much to the wifes concern. Keep looking out the window wandering when I can next go for a long drive......to think I nearly bought a...
Has anyone got one of these on there Trophy?
Are they any good? I know the orbsund is the bees knees of exhausts but is it worth it?
Anything come close to the obsund sound for cheaper?
Apart from the itg filter panel is there anything else to modify or is it good in pure form(don't...
Evo descrivbe the Trophy as 'the most fun you can have on 3 wheels' but my question is how do you get it on 3 wheels?
Is it something that you should be able to do everyday or do you have to really push the car so much that you're very unlikely to achieve it safely on the road?
Can you...
when are these cars supposed to be out??
I saw a black one this morning whilst walking into work. It had either a demo plate or a foreign plate on it, couldn't really tell.
Looked nice, fairly aggressive but a bit too futuristic for my liking...very Astra VXR sort of look to it. Had 2 huge...
Took my Trophy up to Ben R's place on Wednesday along with a couple of mates and am staggered by the difference to my car.
Mid range has improved dramatically and the torque is much more like a Williams now.
If anyone wants a go in my car let me know?
:D
Quick update on this one:
- ITG Panel Filter done
- Cold Air Feed & Removal of acoustic valve (this to be followed by an ITG Maxogen at some point)
- Better Horn (something a kin to an alpine bus) bought, about to be fitted- Lightweight & Strong racing wheels – ET45, 15†or...
My father is claiming there is a "weren't they great" comparative article about the Focus RS and the Trophy in there. He's getting on a bit, bless him, so he may be imagining it.
:?:
I shall find out on Saturday when I pop in.
Rather than swapping 093 for a V70 i'm thinking of taking out the back seats to accomodate my mountian bike, does anyone have any pics with their's removed?
I've read a couple of posts and some speed freaks have taken them out I thick, cue Cue, and this will be a good side effect but need my...
do the 182 rear seats split 60/40, as it drives me mad that the Trophy one's don't when I occasionally need to put them down.
Does anyone know if the leather 182 rear seats are a straight swap, I suspect they are.
How much might I pay for a set and what about door cards I've heard those...
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...
Just got the replacement for the Trophy yesterday. 20k miles on the clock and paid £14,750 from a trader completely factory standard. I feel guilty for saying it but it's better than the Trophy in every aspect in my opinion:
The clutch pedal is harder, the brake pedal is harder and has...
oh dear honda...where did it al go wrong? how did it come to this....
just read the review of the new CTR in EVO...
i wonder how many people put of buying a trophy to wait for this effort..?
3 1\2 stars aint good...and dont get me started on the dash (looks dated already)
still laughting to...
I was driving down the M6 yesterday and got thinking about the feasability of fitting a six speed box in the little beast.
Would this be possible?
I know they used six speeders in the Cup cars, but they were sequential and expensive, also probably not ideal ratios for the road.
How about a...
....right, get the grey matter working....
I'm embarking on a project car for track use.... any ideas of what to start with..
must have's:
Rear wheel drive.. so all reno's are out bar the GTA
Sub £5k purchase price
At least 2 seats - Formula ford's are out
at least a 2 ltr engine...
I know strictly this should go in Media (move it if you like guys), but I'm sure it will generate a bit of discussion, and I'd hate for people to miss it.
As mentioned over in this thread: http://www.renaultsport.co.uk/community ... IC_ID=9215 I've got some pics of one of the final Clio...
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.
Well, unfortunately I have to sell the Trophy. It will really really break my heart to do so but it has to go. I'm off to Iraq for 4 months as of April and have just bought a house so the money could be used better than sitting in the garage. It's not offically up for sale yet but I'm looking...
I have just been reminded that in 2011/2012 the 'fleet average' emissions come donwnot 120 gms/km. It is about 160 plus at present - and the 197 as an example is 209.
Goodness knows how it will be achieved; I would guess that low volume exotics will stay for the high price halo effect, but...
Firstly as a new member to the forum i'd like to say hi to everybody.
Right here it goes...
I'm 19 years old living in nottinghamshire, and have loved clios for years. I own a 2004 1.4 dynamique in black, which has been my pride and joy for about a year and a half. Even though I havent...
Just wondering if anyone has any experience or advice about head unit and speaker upgrades for my new trophy.
Not looking for a crazy install or anything like that, just looking for a half decent head unit that'll play MP3's and will be able to hook up to an ipod; And a set of front and rear...

...and I want one already. Yes, too heavy, forced induction, blah blah blah but it's going to have over 300bhp and weigh less than an EVO X, it will rock. I feel sorry for all those poor sods in their ST's with Wolf and GGR kits...
Just had my tyres changed and when i was driving back i heard what sounded like a big stone or something hitting the underside of the car. Got home and had a look at the alloys and i think the weights have fallen off. (saying that because i didnt watch them the whole time so dont know f they...
Now that the red beast has died (see R.I.P. #230 post in clio discussion) I've got my eye on a Ford Focus RS.
On looking through tuning mags such as Performance Ford I noticed that a number of people have tuned their RS's to 400bhp and beyond, however, their 0-60 times haven't improved in...
I was given a spare Exalto for xmas (thanks Dad!), my plan being to have a spare to take to a tyre guy if I need a new one after a puncture.
When returning home today I was surprised how neatly it fitted on the floor of the boot, and this got me thinking.

Hey,
Am off to Devon on Friday for a weeks rest woooo!! Got the tomato kitted out with some nice new exaltos today, took 50 mins at Elite in dagenham - freakin' ages but all the same it looked like they had done a good job, wheels nice and clean too! :D
Anyway, I was wondering, I shall...
