Ross, I have to say your posts on here over the last few months make you sound like you've already lost your head up the GDI ass. I have no aleigance to either company, and would gladly buy from either (hey I have group buys going for them both on ClioTrophy.co.uk), but it seems to me you're...

I've been running just the PF97 pads on the standard renault discs on my Trophy up until the last few weeks and I have to say the dust was reduced a lot, but so was the braking performance. They didn't bite anywhere near as well and on track fade seemed to come on earlier (although the pads were...

Out of those you cant really go wrong with the K750 i'd say. A portable, practical blootooth handset, with all the extra toys like camera and music should you ever want to use them.

Yep, Mikey sorted it out on my 172 for me. As well as the warning lights coming on, I also found that I was having to press the brake pedal quite a way before the brake lights came on. I could stop the car braking gently without the brake lights ever illuminating :S

I bought a rubber mallet for exactly this job, . A normal hammer will do the job but you'll be deaf and have seriously annoyed neighbours by the time you've finished. Remember to keep rotating the disc 180 degrees as you hit it otherwise you'll get nowhere fast!

I've just about given up on these ever being available now the new clio is out, but you never know. I think i'll probably just get a display and stalk from a breakers out of an earlier model and replace them. At least the adapters should work then

Yep that was me. That was good fun that session :D

PMSL. You sure you haven't been to the King Stromba school for starting controversial threads? ;)

Yeah fair point, it's just these threads usually turn into endless pointless arguments for some reason. To be honest there wouldn't be much difference between all the RS models, but the Trophy and the 172 Cup would be very close. Its difficult to know really as most of the Trophy's still...

^^ no point, i'm winning that i'm afraid

Omar, I've just got my ECU back from Fastchip today with the 182 'Group N' reflash. I know exactly what you mean about the revs dropping and the idle speed, and this does what you want. Throttle response is so much quicker too. I always said the R-sport i had on my 172 was much nicer to drive...

;) ;) Not keen on the rear lights or the windscreen sticker personally, but it looks quite smart otherwise. Certainly very shiny. Your clearly happy with it so enjoy it i say

Most of the non-Renault pads are quite difficult to fit with the metal shims in at the top and bottom. I've had the same problem as you in the past. If you cant get the bottom bolt back in the caliper then taking these out will help. I never use them with the pads i use, just fit the pads...

very nice! :D

:approve:

I run my bullet cam of the 12v supply, but then it outputs the video to the tape in my camcorder which i run off battery :p

How did you find the green sheep on track then? Good fun Brands isn't it :D

Oh and Clacket Lane Services

I want my prize godamnit! :approve:

That's Brands Hatch going into Clearways

There were 50 Swiss Trophy's in the end, and i'm pretty sure they were numbered 1-50 / 50.

Do we know who won no.500 yet?

It's owned by Wayne and Kathy (Slugger and SpecialK), co-founders and ex-chairpeople of Cliosport

I'd recommend the Crowspeed CM1 (patent pending) myself :p

You'll never get a new / prereg Trophy at 11k Richy. They are selling at 12.5-13k+ second hand with 6000+ miles on the clock at the moment!

I can confirm the part numbers for the shocks:
