prasom:
The rear seats have been stripped out (-25.3kg); a lightweight Akrapovic titanium exhaust has been fitted (-7kg); there’s a new carbon-composite bonnet and carbonfibre rear diffuser (-8kg and -2.3kg respectively); thinner rear glass has been installed (-1kg); and there’s now no rear wiper either (-3kg).
The list goes on, of course, but the most eye-catching change is that Renault Sport has done away with the 4Control four-wheel steering that so polarises opinion on the standard models. This change alone amounts to 32kg being removed, and is a key contributor to Trophy-R’s total weight saving of 130kg over the regular Trophy. Renault claims a minimum unladen kerb weight of 1306kg – although, with a full tank of fuel, our car weighed in at even less: 1280kg.
Dieppe has also gone to work on the chassis and suspension. At a basic level, it’s still a MacPherson strut front and torsion beam rear configuration, but adjustable Ohlins ‘Dual-Flow Valve’ dampers have been fitted, as have lightweight springs. The negative camber of the front wheels has been increased by 1.05deg to allow for a greater tyre contact patch under cornering, and the tyres themselves are now Bridgestone Potenza S007s of a special compound as standard.
That new carbonfibre diffuser and a completely panelled underbody help the Trophy-R develop genuine downforce, while larger 355mm brake discs and 42mm Brembo calipers have also been fitted for improved stopping power.
Our Nürburgring Record edition test car takes things further still. A set of 19in carbonfibre rims are included (you still get the regular set of forged 19s as well, to be carried where the back seats used to be) while a set of gold-calipered Brembo carbon-ceramic front brakes are also fitted. These are not only larger of disc diameter (390mm) but contribute to a further weight saving of 1kg per corner.
As for driving position, the Renault is fine without being outstanding, but still significantly behind the supremely cohesive Civic. And while our testers agreed the Sabelt bucket seats offer good lateral support, some felt the angle of the fixed backrest was a bit too recumbent to be ideal.
Though it runs more than two degrees of negative camber at the front wheels....
zinai kaip atrodo 2 laipsniai kamberio? Pas mano miata panasiai. zjbs "gatvine" masina lygint su type r'u, kuriuo gali daily kiaurus metus vaziuot. paziureciau ka tu ziema su tokia ratu geometrija darytum...
tave rimtai tokie pigus triukai nuperka? dar pasakyt kad pats megane nusipirkai galvodamas kokia zjb masina tai yra, nes rs'as gera laika ivaziavo? kai ten realiai tera gerokai aprinktas kibiras su dviem plastikinem taburetem ant ratu.
