    182 Gearbox

    The gearbox number is etched onto it, the 182's have the JC5 130 box. The earlier boxes that are in 172's are JC5 129 and JC5 089 which have a speedo drive. You can get a second hand gearbox for around £300 Or you can get your box refurbished. Ed.

    New to trophy ownership....a few issues

    The 182 boxes are better than the older 172 ones although still not great especially if they have been given little mechanical sympathy. They usually whine (bearing noise) a metallic rattling noise sounds a little more concerning, could be box, diff, shafts.. If you do decide to get it...

    Lowering springs

    These cars are designed to sit higher at the back. Lower the rear and you ruin the handling.

    Exhaust time...

    BTM exhausts are quality, will probably be a tad loud for you though. Maybe the scorpion rs192. No point changing the cat, just get a decat pipe.

    Best value no-compromise road tyres?

    Parada 2's good value tyre. Just don't go out if its wet. Or the ad08's for a better quality tyre and much better wet grip.

    Trophy YouTube review...

    My new favorite quote from a bmw review "the handling is lovely, its goes round corners as if its on tracks, it seems its only bmw that have successfully pulled this off" Something along those lines.. Made me chuckle.

    Life after Sachs??

    Yes thankyou i am aware of this, and they were great when in good working order, i just cant afford to spend stupid money on dampers now that the originals have failed

    Life after Sachs??

    Im also torn at what to do, I like the sound of the R1 dampers, however i dont rally or track my car so seems a bit daft paying for competition quality dampers merely for road use. At the moment im drawn towards a mid range coilover setup.
