I found once i fitted mine on my Trophy (this was when standard mind) the rear end instead being rather tail happy and very twitchy, it didn't let go so easily and personally i would rate one of these for a Trophy its such a cheap mod and the improvement was quite noticeable. I guess others...

Rite will start from beginning, i have a 182, Last month if not the month before i had a random oil light flick up, it came on twice going to work, it flicks up with the stop and the oil pressure light on. When this happened, i checked the oil level it was fine so was the wiring so suspected a...

Yer the bolts that hold the spacer to the hub are really strange never seen somthing like it before and they come with the spacer but there not the issue its the standard wheel bolts that i found were too long, im going to do what was mentioned above going to get some 22mm long bolts from demon...

Yer that's what I'm going to do, I found some 19 mm bolts but there a tad expensive so tomorrow out comes the grinder to take off 5mm. There hubcentics btw and there the bolt to hub then bolt wheel to spacer type but I think its down to the alloys that are fitted to my brothers Clio and its a...

Went to fit some FK 15mm wheel spacers to my brothers clio this morning only to find out that the standard bolts are too long and bottom out on the hub, these spacers are the bolt to hub type and from what i read on here you just bolt them to the hub then bolt the wheel onto the spacer using...

Lol will probably see you around then as my girlfriend lives in Broom Close, if you see a Red 182 Trophy then your know who it is :)

Hi, where in Horsham do you live? i live in Broadbridge Heath, and as above what colour is the 182?

Cheers Fred help much appreciated will get it sorted asap.

I have the locking tools to hand and there genuine renault ones however im kind of wondering if its worth me doing the belt in the first place as im currently looking at doing cams in a few months hence why i want to know if the dephaser bolt is reusable i know its a final torque of 100nm and...

Hi all im after some technical knowledge on the f4r 738 engine. I checked the timing at the weekend as when i purchased the car last year the timing belt had been done before by a local garage, i was a little suspicious that it had been done correctly due to hearing a few things regarding so...

My mate done mine for £50, they were only shot blasted in the areas that were corroded hence the pitting in the paint still. I had them done ages ago and they still look the same as they do in the picture so its lasted well so far. They were stripped mind before painting however it could be...

Iv had mine shot blasted and painted, the pictures are up on the clio trophy site, i asked BG is they done any spraying on the casings and i got the answer that they only do maintenance so that was it i had a friend of mine do the painting, i wish when i had done them that i had given my friend...

Hi to the fellow Trophy owner in Crawley parked outside Virgin Active/Cineworld Cinemas, i believe the reg no. started with RT55. Looked nice and clean unlike mine which needs a good wash.

Hi i recently purchased a Janspeed system from K-tec for my 182 Trophy, fitting went fine all lines up spot on when cold. Now when the system gets hot it expands and moves from the center of the bumper cutouts to the right hand side of the vehicle/offside. Does anyone else's do this or is it...

Just thought i would point out looks as though your front discs are fitted to the wrong sides, only groves go in direction of rotation.

As stated above, my Clio 182 has developed a random misfire and poor acceleration from cold and am in need of some very technical knowledge. Basically this started around a week or so ago when the weather decided to have a burst of heat/sunshine, i would go to start the vehicle early in the...

Hi people im after technical knowledge here, im in need of a track rod and track rod end for the Trophy. Its for my n/s due to seizure and im contemplating in heating to free it off then grease it up after cleaning but i know this is not done practice. I called Renault today and got...

Count me in would be good to meet with other locals

Will keep an eye on this, dependant on day i will be up for this would be good to meet with other locals. BTW i live in Horsham

Yer your correct with the galvanizing however i know this doesn't protect them fully from rust thats for sure. I work on Porsche's mostly and i can assure you the 996's and 997's are suppose to be galvanized yet only a few weeks ago did i see a 996 that was fit for the scrappy due to the amount...

Hey all i know my opinion is going to seem biased due to owning a Trophy however i had a look into the Focus RS MK1 before i bought my Trophy and i have to say i stick by my decision. The potential for power out of the Focus is rather great and a lot less money spent on compared to similar power...

In all fairness 350bhp out of this engine is possible but it will need alot of money and rebuild with stronger components to get there. As for the comment on them goin pop your correct they blow the big end bearings if you over rev them as standard from cold. Not a good idea on a turbo engine...

You can count me in just as soon as the snow passes :)

I am now :) and btw i live in bbh
