    AST Solid Top Mounts

    Has anybody got these on their trophy? I was wondering what people thought and if they changed anything else when putting these on IE damper settings. I'm thinking of getting some because top mounts are knocking over bumps (not the usual knocking on full lock either) I've worked it out to be...

    Who hasn't re-furbed the dampers yet ?

    Having been looking for another trophy for around a month now and there seems to be quite a few that still havent had the dampers re furbed yet. Just wondering how many on here are still running their cars without problems?

    FS: Trophy 038/500

    Just given 038 a polish and some new pics. Would come with a new MOT. If you know about these, and most here do, all the maintenance and new parts on this add up to a fortune. I'm on the fence about selling it as it owes me more, but it is a stock car, I have an R26.R I'd like to keep and how...

    My Springs are turning within their mounting cups??

    I'm a bit perplexed by this, within the last month or so, i've been getting loud twanging/donging noises when maneuvering. The other weekend i checked over the complete suspension, to make sure noting was loose. I found no faults, but i tried tightening the front damper assembly top nut inside...

    Rear damper replacement options

    Apologies for bringing this up again but the recent spate of comments on suspension has prompted me to post. As I see it there are three options for replacing Trophy rear dampers: a) 182 Cup dampers (£65ish) b) Renault/Sachs Trophy-specific dampers (£115ish) c) Koni adjustable dampers...

    Recaro Seat Position

    I'm getting really irritated by the seat position in the T. The recaro's are not height adjustable like my 1.2 seats were. The steering wheel is as high as it will go and still my hand bashes my leg and gets in the way during sharp cornering. Has anybody come across a way to lower the seat...

    Geometry - What is Adjustable on a Trophy?

    Hi 1. As per title. Looking for a definitive answer on what is adjustable on a Trophy (i.e. without using camber bolts/shims etc). I have had a look around and cannot find an answer. 2. Also, does anyone know if the Trophy has the same standard alignment settings as 172/182s? I went to a...

    Where to buy rear Koni adjustables?

    I've been trauling through suspension threads for the last hour and can't find an answer. Where does everyone buy them from? And, What is 'revalving'? Is it just matching the damping settings to OE spec or is it something specialist that the likes of MF would do? Thanks
