Take it you mean here....http://www.stealthsport.co.uk/index.php/
But I can't find any items in the shop and says it's under construction. Where did you find it?

I was advertised on cliotrophy.co.uk £130 inc p&p. cant wait to get it on and see what its like, heard a lot good review. With the front dampers stiffened on the T the back feels more wobbly so hopefully it will balance it up a bit and give me more lateral grip.
Only a theory at the moment but will try it out soon enough.

These are a worthwhile mod indeed.

£130 pp? Is that a one off sale or is stealthsport actua
Ly selling them at that price?
Matt Wills AKA Stealthsport is selling the one off his Trophy.

I went for a drive yesturday.. so heres my verdict:
Its...AWESOME!
It just so point-and-go!
On the really tight (say, 40-50mph bends) its just hold on and on and on, its like a train on rails.
I can feel there is more lateral sheer force acting on the rear tyres, but not enough for them to let go. On a track situation.. I guess it would be more prone to lift off oversteer, but its nothing scary and its still progressive enough. Its not as progressive as standard (all the weight on the front slowly moving into slight understeer) but I'd say the overall grip and handling has improved.
Would I recommend? Yes.
WOW
I fitted the roll bar last night and what a difference. The back end feels much stiffer and better tidied down. With the front damping adjusted the back end has more grip and feels fantastic but is easily adjustable on the throttle when the front starts to let go. A simple little lift will have the back end coming round and pointing the nose back into the corner.
I will try and get some pictures up later.

Good to hear these are fixing the trophy's twitchy rear. Means I will just go for the mark fish set up and whiteline ARB
I had the fixed whiteline ARB on my ph1 and it really glue'd the back end to the floor, loved it and think it will be one of the best, most confidence inspiring mod for the trophy

I ordered one today
I assume they are better than polybushing all around as that was my other option :s
Where did you order it from?

Not really the sort of conditions I would be attempting stuff, atleast not on the public roads anyway
Right, I'm well aware I'm running the risk of looking stupid here:S, as I already have an ARB fitted, but I need to ask.
How do these improve the cars handling?
They are only mounted to the beam so how do they have any affect?
Shouldn't they be fixed to the body to help reduce roll, or does it reduce any "flex" found in the beam?
If its flex would it not be easier/cheaper to stiffen the original beam?
What am I missing?
Cheers

It basically stiffens up the rear beam, increases rear roll resistance, so you should have more oversteer / less understeer under steady state cornering
172 ph1
Should do.
Hard data? If you are talking about lap times with and without than this is something I am planning in the summer also testing a few other common tweaks for clio sports.
However I can promise you it is not a placebo effect. They is a genuine improvement with this roll bar fitted making the attitude of the car more adjustable with the throttle and more lateral grip at the rear end. The next step is more front camber and slowly working from that.
i can vouch for the product that there is an immidiate improvement as soon as you get in an start driving about, the whole car feels so much more tought and sharper, when you take a corner you can feel the back end grip in hard and hold onto the tarmac! cant wait to polybush the whole front end now and have a full geo setup on the suspension!

You got a link? Tried looking on the site and it said they didn't have any for the 182...
