My New Steed: Trophy #321

[leeroybrown]

Leaving the suspension as it is Gally or you thinking about up some uprated springs?

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

I never know if the Mk2 Renault Sport shape has aged well or it's just that because most of them are enthusiast owned they are generally well kept/cared for!

 

[aucky]

I have that badge, 100x better.

Another option is the RS badge in place of the Clio badge like Jon.G's old one

It runs Eibachs, after the Frp I couldn't live with the standard height. Especially with so many options. Different on the Frp. The way I drive the springs make zero difference to me.

Thanks mate, i'll fire it on like Luke has, you got a picture of Jon's?

I think the left side looks too bare like that...

Another vote for the revised RenaultSport badge on the left-hand side from me.

 

[Gally]

Ah yeah i've never like that badge, also agree on it looking bare hence me not completely de-badging.

I agree. I actually like the Clio badge.

Want my old badge kev? You get a tailgate thrown in for free

My exhaust was just a Ktec thing. Fit PERFECTLY in the cutouts though:

 

[Sir_Dave]

What exhaust was it?

Was a Ktec Ultra Silenced one iirc.

Flol! Ask the scrappy how much he'll give you! Anything else lying around.

Did actually look half decent, i'll sort that out quickly on mine.

 

[Adamm.]

Awesome buy mate looks very nice.

Where did you buy the reanault sport rear badge from?

 

[Tim.]

Slash-cut FTW!

 

[Gally]

Renault mate. We get like 30/40% discount. Think the Rrp is £19.

 

[aucky]

Slash-cut FTW!

Back box ftw

 

[Adamm.]

Cheers mate bit cheaper than the 200 style one then lol.

 

[Tim.]

Back box ftw

/\ winner

 

[Sir_Dave]

Slash-cut FTW!

I concur, BTB FTW

F*ck knows what Feirny's has on it though.

 

[JoedotwasT5phy]

Oh i miss mine

 

[Lal B3N]

Slash cut ftw! Not a trophy though but -

 

[Lal B3N]

Look forward to seeing how ocd clean you keep this haha.

Quite tempted by that rear badge, my original plan was the other badge and ditch the clio hmmm.

 

[leeroybrown]

BTB is the dogs!

I had the Piper one Gally fitted nice and didnt make your ears bleed.

 

[Feirny]

I concur, BTB FTW

F*ck knows what Feirny's has on it though.

Scorpion SRN019, straight pipes.

 

[Gally]

We don't know what's on it, i'll get it on the ramp and check. It's not loud, infact it probably sounds similar to standard with a bit more deepness. Can't even hear it on the motorway so i'll probably keep it after adjusting.

 

[Gally]

Oh ordered some bulbs all round aswell, silvervisons, Philips etc. I do fancy xenons at some point. I'll phone my contact in a few months and tell him to keep me a set off the next 1*2 that comes in.

 

[Thrust-Rated]

Looks nice. Will be good to see what you do with it

I want a trophy
And I wouldn't bother with xenons personally.

 

[Gally]

Ordered another few bits today. Dje Dave was kind enough to offer me a rear bench at a decent price. Yanoo first... if he ever gets back to me.

 

[withoutabix]

Yanoo first... if he ever gets back to me.

Atleast im not the only one waiting for a reply then..

 

[Gally]

After having a look at the site i'm even more perplexed in what I need/want. Fücking mechaphobe!

 

[aucky]

Vibratechnics mounts improve the gear shift no end.

Even the most anti-ketchup person on here had to admit they're good.

 

[Joe#]

Glad to see you've bought one Kev, look forward to see what you do with it

New engine/gearbox mounts should make a huge difference. I've ordered new oem ones for mine with the powerlex dogbone mount. I'll have to do a bit of a search into the yanoo.

 

[aucky]

anti-ketchup

*Anti-ktec

Lol

 

[Djw John]

For you Kev I'd avoid vibratech mounts, new oem mounts with a powerflex dogbone will be the right mix of stiffness and refinement.

That's what I've gone for. OEM mounts and powerflex dogbone.

It's just had a lower engine mount. Most of this is alien to me.

How many mounts are there ffs!

I have no interest in making it harsher!

 

[aucky]

Upper engine, upper gearbox, and the stabilisation 'dog bone' mount.

The dogbone takes a lot of the flack so people stiffen up by updating that.

I did the complete opposite (because rs2)

 

[Joe#]

Are solid mounts a must with the RS2 aucky?

 

[Gally]

The dogbone one sounds a must. Price? Retailer?

 

[Thrust-Rated]

not sure on price, think its around 40-50 quid. i just handed mine to Fred and let him crack on with it
