This weeks work on the Trophy

[damianscup]

Well, after my 1st track day of the year at Blyton, my Clio started jumping out of 2nd gear! So me and my brother decided to remove the box on my driveway. As you can see, we had to improvise and build a temporary canopy as the heavens opened. To be honest it's all gone quite well. Here's a few pics of the initial strip down.

While the car was in the air (we'll sort of) I decided to also fit the following,-
-White line rear anti role bar kit
-Rear discs, pads and bearings
-Front Brembo HC discs
-Front ds1.11 pads
-Full set of Toyo R888R tyres
-Quality stud conversion
-Fresh refurb on the wheels
-Full service
-New oem clutch kit
I had a full refresh on the gearbox and it now feels like new, tbh I did have everything changed. Anyway, here's some more pics of her built back up

Hopefully the next step is just getting her out on track, I want to be doing quite a few this year.
By the way, after a horrendous 30mins bedding the brakes in (to the factory method) they feel absolutely spot on now, so I'm really looking forward to seeing how they perform on track

Wow, that looks bloody awesome on those wheels!

Those Pro Race 1s?

I do like this car:up:

 

[Jekyll]

I love this car.

Unsure whether I prefer it on the white wheels or not though. Either way, it looks great.

 

[damianscup]

Yes they're the Pro Race 1's mate, very light wheels, cheers

I was unsure as well mate, to be honest I like them in white and gunmetal?
Cheers pal

Looking good, nice to see pro race 1's in something other than white or black :up:

Front Calipers mounted the wrong way...

No he's not. They're the wrong way round, but it makes no odds to how they operate.

 

[mossyv6]

I can only see a photo of the rear and that's fine?

 

[mossyv6]

In fact yes just spotted it

Paha my bad, just zoomed in 😂 Durrrrps.

 

[damianscup]

Cheers guys, well spotted! I'll swap these around tomorrow.
Thanks

Looks great. Nice to see a modified trophy. Never see any with different wheels/track slag look. I really love it!

Thanks a lot pal

More pics needed! This looks epic.

And I love that splitter.

How is it held to the bumper... Or, does it pivot on the bumper or do those ties just pull and push it from a rigid position on the bumper?

Thanks for the good comment Knuckles. The splitter is fixed to the bumper with rivets and the 2 x ties can alter the angle of it. TBH it's a real quality bit of kit and is very secure.
I'll post some more pics up later this week,
Thanks:up:

I think it looks great, love it on those wheels! :up:

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

Splitter and black spoiler don't do much for me, but love it otherwise!

Cheers mate :wink:

I agree with the spoiler mate, but love the carbon splitter. Cheers for the feedback :up:

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

Each to their own bud it's still a cool car. Can't decide which colour wheels I prefer though!

I'm the same with the wheels pal, at least they won't show the brake dust up as much, ha!! :up:
