I attended the north east meet last weekend and sneaked off to get a few pics of my trophy with dan. His will be better quality than mine.
I'm trying to get hold of a good stainless steel cat back exhaust as the car is booked in for custom mapping at Rs tuning
The car currently has no rear...
What's the best way to go about getting this out as far as I'm aware it's a one piece system? I'm swapping the standard exhaust so cutting really isn't an option
I've heard that dropping the axle is the common thing to do but how do I do this as I've never done it before. Cheers
Wonder if you can help, a mate has a ph2 172 and is having an issue, it wont go above 3000 RPM.
It's been into renault and supposedly its not the throttle body, or any of the wiring so they've said it needs a new ECU at a rediculous cost.
Anybody had similar experiences? I thought it could...
A friend is thinking of getting his 197 mapped and is looking at getting the exhaust breathing a bit better.
Can you fit a de-cat to the 197 and will it make any difference after mapping?
Saw you at morrisons in Darlington, car looks awesome
From what I could see it has:
Coilovers ...epic lows + camber
K-tec buckets
Smooth recess on front bumper
Single wiper
Custom exhaust...hanging low :-/
Fluorescent orange pro race 1.2s lol
Just wondering how to clean an ITG panel filter, is it just soapy water? Do I need to brush it out etc?
I've got some of the ITG filter sealent on its way so need to get it cleaned before hand
Purchased in Aug 2010 in p.x for my Mini Cooper S.
Car had around 70k miles on when I bought it with the added bonus of just having the belts done, this actually was not a bonus but a nightmare, read on to find out, but first, some pics after some TLC
Shortly after buying the car I...
Saw you in mcdonalds about 2 in the morning, was in the black lexus had been for a drive down to helmsley pass, got hungry and made our way up there
Car looks smart :)
What's the best clutch to go for and where is cheapest to purchase it? I'm fitting a new engine soon and going to bang a new clutch in there while I'm on
Cheers
Has anyone got the above set up? I'm going to order the springs from Kam racing and I've just ordered my whiteline Rear ARB so hoping its all going to work well with the trophy's dampers
I'm after some magnecor leads, not sure whether to get blue or red, I'm not really sure of the benefits of either but if it's better than standard I'm game
Anybody know where's cheapest?
As title really, what kits are available?
As far as I'm aware you can get:
Vmaxx
K-tec
Gaz
I know people have H&R's but I cant find anywhere that sells them or states the hub spacing
I'm also guessing AST do as well
Got a PM from geddes asking whether any of us wanted to go up maybe this weekend?

Just insured my corsa 1.2 sxi run about car and my clio trophy with admiral for the year.
Got a pretty good deal, saved around £200 and they've given me two years NCB for nothing....how they can do that I have no idea but it's all good.
So by the end of the policy in dec 2011 I will have...
I really can't live with the ride height of the trophy any longer, even with the mark fish springs it doesnt look low enough for me.
I'm after a Coilover that will offer good drivability even when low, I'm not talking silly low but around 40-50mm all round. I will be using a whiteline adj Rear...
Anybody ever done a back to back RR test with standard vs orbisoud system for the 182?
I'm thinking of going custom exhaust and the one the company makes looks identical to the orbisoud so looking to see what sort of gains I'd Get
Had these two cars in during the last few weeks.
The lexus had been the victim of a turkish 'hand' wash. This car has been paint corrected 3 times alone this year due to incorrect wash techniques etc. Very light cut needed but was just enough to bring this one back around.
Sadly my camera...
I need a definate answer to this one. A friends engine has just let go on his 182 and I'm looking for a replacement for him. I just need to know the actual difference between the two.
Is the head/block the same, I know the 182 had better inlets,exhaust manifold and engine map but will there be...
I'm really after the opinion of people who have spent more than just Rs tuner, matched inlets and exhaust please.
More in depth tuning, I.e Cams, ITB's, turbo and supercharging.
Is it really worth it on the clio, is the performance gain that much you can justify the money? OR would I be...
Just out of interested can someone chop the trophy to a better level of stance, so around the usual coilover drop so just to tops of the tyres
And if you're feeling handy a couple of separate chops of White turinis and black turini's, if you're feeling adventurous then have fun with other...
Just wondering if it's worth adding cams to a 182 and what sort of price will I be looking at?
I know it will need live mapping but I just fancy some extra power
I've had the raceglaze alcantara cleaner lying around ever since I sold my ph1 172. I thought I would give the recaro's a clean up as they've now had 70k miles worth of use.
There was a fair ammount of dirt removed which I dont have a picture of but here they are all clean:
I've also...
Anybody want to have a drive up to hartside? It will be good to have a blast up there before the bad weather really sets in

Well I posted up a new thread about the over run map on the fastchip section of CS but it's been deleted, so the last thread was locked and now mine is deleted....
Anybody any idea's whats going on as it looks as if it's just getting swept under the rug with no answers as to when it will be...
Everytime the trophy gets slightly dirty I have to whip out the mitt and bucket and make it clean again, theres something about an immaculate trophy that I love....
Is anyone else the same as me or am I verging on the side of OCD???
So then, what gains can be had? A mate has just bought one and we were looking at possibly getting an rs tuner and just doing a generic remap?
Anybody have any previous experience with generic vs live map?
