    what is so special about the trophy setup?

    How many times has this been covered?

    I drove a 182 Trophy and it blew me away!

    I started with a FF197 and now have a Trophy. Kinda speaks for itself. But hey we have a Meggy 225 aswell;)

    197 tyre foam?

    Don't bother using the foam though. Waste of time and makes a complete mess inside.

    Front brake flexi hoses

    Fitted the K-tec ones a few weeks back to front and rear. Make a nice firm improvement.

    197 f1 r27 vs standard 197

    No it wasn't. It was a 182 with above spec (and air con).

    Drivers side door not locking

    Had the same problem on my Trophy a couple of months ago. Turned out to be a dirty connector.

    Finally ordered new brakes from k-tech

    Hi mate So far so good. Still got a fair bit of running in to do, but the brake pedal is firmer and there's more of a reaction higher up in the pedal. i.e. when you just dab the pedal, you can feel the brakes now. Still no squeaking! At this stage I'm not confident to say whether I'd track...

    Finally ordered new brakes from k-tech

    There's two on each caliper (top and bottom where the pad sits). If you've got them on, just lever off on opposite directions e.g. bottom one, lever upwards etc and they just ping off. Would also re-grease the pads if this is the case.

    upgrading my trophy

    Last year I had the K-tec remap done along with K-tec supersports exhaust and ITG panel filter. made a nice difference to torque (10ft/lbs more) in the mid range. This weekend fitted brembo HC discs, DS Performance Pads and K-tec braided lines. Nice subtle improvements IMO. Next I'm...

    Finally ordered new brakes from k-tech

    Sounds like a nightmare mate. Glad you got it sorted. As I mentioned in my earlier posts, my mate removed the anti-rattle shim as the pads wouldn't fit in otherwise. He was also careful about applying the copper grease to the edges and back of the pads. have only done around 30miles since...

    Finally ordered new brakes from k-tech

    Hi mate No squealing what so ever. We coated the edges of the pads and back in a thin layer of copper grease. We also removed the pad shims as the new pads wouldn't fit with them in. parts wise, its in all an excellent deal from K-tec. Oh and the braided lines are pant wettingly nice. I'm...

    Thoughts and ideas...

    Orange..... if my 197 came in orange, I think I'd have kept it;)

    Ferodo DS Performance

    Fitted the DS Performance pads yesterday along with Brembo Hc Discs and K-tec braided lines. Obviously need running in, but seriously better than my previous stock setup.

    Trophy Colour

    The paintwork on my Trophy isn'e exactly of a high standard. Roll on the summer when I can clay it again.

    Well...I'm back again!!!

    If not already done, get yourself signed up on cliotrophy.co.uk And enjoy the car!

    Finally ordered new brakes from k-tech

    My mate fitted the new discs, pads and braided lines this morning. We also flushed out most of the old fluid and replaced with new Castrol Dot4 (from Opie Oils). Brakes are already much more responsive, even from lightly pressing the pedal. Obviously there's some running in to be done, but I'm...

    197 to Trophy??

    Had the same thing when I went from the 197 to the Trophy. Its an brill motor and I can't see myself ever getting rid of it.

    197 to Trophy??

    Cheers mate. Nice to see someone has an open mind.
  24. Jay_A

    197 to Trophy??

    Nice

    197 to Trophy??

    If you do a lot of driving, stick with the 197 or get a 225, but pesonally my Trophy would be too much for the long trips
  26. Jay_A

    197 to Trophy??

    So was my 197. Since having a remap and new exhaust on the Trophy though, its a real improvement.
  27. Jay_A

    197 to Trophy??

    Yup went from this; To this; And love it to bits!! (We traded the 197 in for a 225, so still have a comfort fun car!)

    Warped discs, worth getting them skimmed??

    Hi mate. its under their new Cliosport members section. Go to the Traders section > K-tec and you'll see it there;)

    Warped discs, worth getting them skimmed??

    Just get a set of Brembo HC's. Ordered mine from K-tec at the weekend (very cheap)!

    I'm looking at buying a trophy

    McLaren is only down the road from me. Don't often see other Trophys round here though. I've had mine remapped and had a new exhuast. made a huge difference:)
