182 Trophy Suspension

[MarcB]

One of the coil springs has broken at the front of the 182 Trophy and i was punching my head with what i was going to do as the OE Renault ones are £150 a spring.
Just called Mark Fish and ordered a full spring kit for the 182 Trophy.

Has anyone got this spring kit on there car and if so what is the verdict of it ??

£150 a spring!!!

I just put some eibach sportlines on mine, apparently the same as Mark Fish but I wont go there. I am very pleased with mine. I was considering keeping my old ones but if they are that much new...

TBH I dont think you can go wrong with the MF set up. always has good feeback

Yes. Although you literally cant tell height wise that it is 'lowered', looks as if it sits a little lower on the rear but thats it lol. As for poundage I dont know im afraid, they dont feel much different from standard ride wise, a tad bouncier, but it definately feels more stable.

I have MF springs on my car, they are a little firmer, but car feels a touch more positive as result with less roll but enough give to retain good road manners. The car sits lower, noticeably at the back giving car a nice stance.

Along with my Koni rear dampers and Whiteline anti-roll bar the far feels amazing now, very controlled and much more positive front end.

From reading up give of take some £££ the selected suspeions for the 182 trophy seems to be good so im not bothered about an extra £40 /£60 as its still alot cheaper than OE springs
