update on it! done 13k miles now since I got it, let me down for the first time the other day when the drivers window wiper sheared off! on the motorway, 2 hours from home (going the opposite direction! had to return home, get the trophy and drive 4 hours back the way I was going!), in the...

I hate they way these drive on apex -40mm!! should have gone eibach, may not look as low but at least it handles with them! looks like quite a tidy example

looks awesome in the flesh the kit, this is the one they had in the showroom yesterday, didn't fancy £18k for it though lol!!

my DCI one was like that, the big heavy car suited the torque of the diesel for making pace down a twisty road, it was better on most of the s**t roads up here than my cupped 200 was! it used to bang and bounce all over the shop! these handle closer to a 200 than they do a Dynamique S, I drove...

did I pass these on the motorway on trailors lastnight?

our driving school twingos get replaced at 2yrs 100k and they are done by then. We used to use Toyota Starlets and they would get replaced at 4yrs sometimes 230k+ and they were still on the original clutch!! to give the twingo their due though they do 100k in 2 years and all they require is...

its a £600 optional extra you can buy the bits separate but they aint cheap. Renault parts direct had them listed on their website. ive spoke to Renault Wolverhampton to see about the front splitter from it for mine...

remove rear clio badge is the cheapest and most effective!

briefly from memory (may not be 100% accurate)... authentique is the basic one, 1.2 8v engine (think it was available in a dci65 too) 14" wheeltrims, tape player, no screen at the top of the dash for outside temp etc, manual mirrors. no rear speakers did have electric windows though...

Trophy on 56k I think, dci on 150 somthing

my trophy got serviced by its first owner at 3years/700 miles

most turbo charged Renaults make over book figure too so id say either this RR is a bit conservative, its a poor engine or 200edc's in general are rubbish lol! my Twingo GT made 105bhp standard, my Gordini 112bhp and my dci 100 107bhp and the meganes seem to all put out good numbers

that's a cracking buy that! FMIC, panel filter, exhaust, 182 injectors, RSTuning hello 140bhp+

wheels look good in the last few pics, remap results are good too bet that goes well! do these use a VNT turbo or is it just a normal one? do they have a DPF?

no need for a diesel then if your not doing many miles unless you need it for towing or just prefer the way they drive

Do it mark! from reading your comments/opinions and watching your videos online you seem to be very similar to myself, I think you would get on very well with a Trophy, I love mine much more than any of my standard or modified ph1, ph2's, 200 etc. also driven my mates Fiesta ST at length, which...

totally different engines too, tuned D4FT's go so bloddy well! they are the same if not worse on fuel than F4R's though when your pushing on!

as a minimum id stick new dampers and top bearings on but ideally I would want to do track rods and track rod ends too then have it setup on a hunter machine. if your flush with cash you can look at lower arms too which come with new bushes and ball joints and replace the ARB bushes while its...

ouch, shame as you would have saved that £200 in the fuel costs in a couple of months!

don't listen to this guy hes been wrong on here every time this topic has came up. you have already swapped the intercooler setup so all you need to swap over is the injectors, have them coded to the car and then just get your current ECU flashed with the correct or uprated software. turbo is...

I drove mine properly flat out everywhere most of my commute was B roads with a few town sections and it done 45-50mpg most weeks, taking it easy on the motorway at 70-80mph it would do 60+ it was 10mpg worse off in each situation than my dci 65/80/100 for *indicated* mpg, I never worked out...

6 speed dci 106 mk3 is a much better choice however hold good money. DCI 80 is a good car, I love mine, the ratios and gearbox are much better than the 100, but the engine in the 100 is worth the extra cash! im trying to get my mate to part with his 100 daily to build a hybrid out of my 80 and...

different gearboxes but you could either use the twingo box or use your own box with minimum modifying. you would need a downpipe made up custom to fit your exhaust

to be honest as much as you have said you want to buy a non rs and build one you really need to have a full car to convert it so you woukd need to buy a non rs and an rs and do the swap, then you would have your track car in the weaker shell with a sunroof.

intercooler mod on an n/a car is a silly idea as you can only cool it to ambient temperature at best case scenario! Better cutting a hole in your bonnet and mounting a filter outside lol

straight swap same mounts!

if your pre 2004 engine with grey engine cover then its slightly different, if your post 2004 engine with the black engine cover that's part of the airbox then yes the TCE is just a turbo charged version of this engine

that's everything I done

you could look down the route of getting 1.2 TCE inlet manifold, exhaust manifold, turbo, boost pipework, 172 injectors and having someone map your ECU if its possible to map them. obviously theres a bit more fabrication involved in that but its a route you could go down

economy would be much the same my old 140bhp one would do 25mpg when driving it hard and low 45mpg just taking it easy. to convert one I think it would be easier to buy a smashed twingo GT and convert the lot straight over including dash! or at least that's what id do as electrics are not my...
