[Turbo tic]

Has any one got these ? If so wat like are they cheers

 

[JohnnyE]

I've got them all round on the Trophy well happy with them

 

[.Stevo.C.]

I found them quite harsh on my Trophy.

 

[jesus]

I would recommend Sportlines.

Whats best setup for road and occasional track? Suspension, brakes, tyres etc

I honestly wouldn't touch the suspension if I own another one. My old one was epic on track in standard form.

Ive read that a lot of people like sachs on front but change the rears?

I've got Mark Fish springs all round on mine, standard Sachs dampers up front with adjustable Koni dampers on the rear (along with the obligatory whiteline RARB, and PM solid top mounts & strut brace). Completely different car to standard setup, less roll, considerably more precise, better off throttle steering etc.

Haven't taken it on track yet, so can't make a proper comment. It is a little harsh as a daily mind.

Sportlines and Koni rears. Perfect.

Popular to change the rears to Konis as they are slightly cheaper and adjustable. I had Koni rears fitted to mine also and found the rear quite skittish.

I don't understand why anyone would want to tamper with the suspension on these cars imo.

[Turbo tic]

Broke a front spring? I don't have my Trophy anymore sold it over a year ago.

Only reason I put Mark Fish springs and Koni rear dampers on mine was because both my front springs were snapped and the OE rear dampers were weeping slightly. Soon bought 2 new front springs from Renault and put it back to standard though.

 

[Turbo tic]

Do u have a part number Steveo it's about 190.00 from renault but there sayin it's the same as a cup?? Also 1 rear is weeping :dapprove:

 

[.Stevo.C.]

I don't sorry. Are you on Cliotrophy.net?

 

[Turbo tic]

Yeah mate can't seem to find it

 

[.Stevo.C.]

The Mark Fish springs are around £180 if i recall for the full set (fronts & backs) and worth IMO.

 

[JohnnyE]

[JohnnyE]

Photobucket playing up so cant post pics

 

[Turbo tic]

JohnnyE you still using the standard Sachs aswell ?

 

[JohnnyE]

Yes standards shocks and dampers but thinking about rear Koni adjustables of Mark. I've just put a Quaiffe diff in as well.

 

[Turbo tic]

What did u do with ur standard springs? I'm thinking of koni rears as my Sachs are leaking

 

[JohnnyE]

I bought brand new front dampers last year and when I sold the old dampers they got sold as a package with the springs

 

[Turbo tic]

How much we're the brand new dampers ?
