    GTR2 - what are your laptimes at Donington?

    Yeah, i've done the first 5 or 6 groups of challenges all with gold so far. Quite good actually, adds something new to the game. edde - yeah, it has both the national and international circuit on it, so you can practice the track day lines :D. Pretty accurate to driving it for real too...

    Spotted Nik [Trophy]

    Re: GTR2 - what are your laptimes at Donny? Not done many laps in the Saleen yet, been busy trying to tame 911's :P Got to love Donington though

    6 hours! Till she is back!

    I think it needs a trip to the nurburgring this weekend to run it in ;)

    Any point to the Trophy

    Yes of course it would, but the suspension is £3500 if you can get hold of it, and the seats near £1500. Would be an expensive aftermarket add on ;)

    Ultimate Simulation!!!!

    ^^ LOL! So true! :clown:

    trophy suspension - how much?

    ^^ The rear dampers on the Trophy are Sachs units too

    trophy suspension - how much?

    Yep, just the front. This is what tends to make the rear look higher when in reality its not much if any different to a FF 182

    Slicks

    I was once told by a certain Williams enthusiast that the Williams has a baffled sump, which means the risks of oil starvation from the increased g-forces created running slicks should be reduced :) Rob talks a lot of sense though, people do sometimes worry too much about going faster on...

    "STOP" warning light

    ^^ Top up your brake fluid, that's the fluid level sensor triggering. Thats why it comes on when you go up a hill.

    Trophy modifications argument...

    According to the specs the Trophy is 10mm lower that the 182 Cup at the front and the same height on the rear.

    Reminder: *** Maintenance Outage This Weekend ***

    Just to remind you of this annoucement: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/announcement.php?f=21&a=53 As of now the forum may be closed without warning and for extended periods over the next two days. Normal service (and hopefully a few improvements ;)) should be resumed by Monday.

    trophy suspension - how much?

    The rears are black ;)

    trophy suspension - how much?

    Errm, no, they are yellow and made by Eibach. The springs Mat has posted are the originals from the Trophy front shocks, here are mine:

    trophy suspension - how much?

    Dont forget they also had £1300 of Recaro seats & subframes in them too, so all in all it makes the £13k-14k that most people paid for them new look like a bit of a bargain.

    trophy suspension - how much?

    Oi! Did the evil Steve tell you to say that? ;)
  21. Nik

    This is embarassing...I can't get the hairs off!

    The PE2's on my rear tyres are 18 months old, have done nearly 20k and about 10 track days, and they still have most of them on :clown:

    Just a few questions...

    No you shouldn't need to buy anything of your own, they'll have everything you need for a normal service. Some people do buy and supply their own oil in order to either save a few quid, or use a specialist oil, but no need to do that. If you need a courtesy car make sure you ask for one...

    The Actual Difference In Spoilers?

    1. Base range Clio spoiler (non Dynamique models) - Very small, Red light. 2. Dynamique / 172 / Non cupped 182 / V6 Mk1 spoiler (colour coded on 172 / 182 and later dynamiques) - Larger - Clear light 3. 172 Cup / 182 Cup or Cup packed spoiler - Even larger - Red light 4. Clio V6 Mk2 / 182...

    The Actual Difference In Spoilers?

    No the Trophy has the same spoiler as the V6, it's larger than the cup spoiler

    Trophy Pressure???

    No certainly shouldn't be like that. Most people generally run the fronts a couple of PSI more than the rear.

    BBPT Why Would They

    LOL, as others have said the point at which the lines will cross will depend on the scales of the axis. Your all worrying about nothing as far as the graphs go.

    New member - Vid of my 172 at the Nurburgring

    I have to agree 8.33 in a totally standard Clio with road tyres does seem unlikely to me. I've been out on some quick laps with people in Clios, and although little improvements can add up over such a long lap, i cant see where a time like that could come from unless you had something pushing...

    standard v's trophy

    Yep, the trophy does have a very firm ride. It's not too harsh as the dampers do an excellent job, but its deliberately set up to be quite firm, more so than the standard 182. I don't think you'd be disappointed with the standard 182, there's not that much difference, but the Trophy is superb.

    The Headmister's Valver...

    Looks great. Best colour too ;)
