One of the two sets has to go...otherwise imminent bankcrupcy will folow. http://www.locomail.com/niko/mycorradow ... th85x17lm/ Niko

made a new dyno on monday. 216.5 bhp ( 219.5hp) at 6350rpms. Perhaps a few more had it gone to the rev limiter. Revs very freely now that its been run in properly...and that the tube going to the vsr/vgi valve was replaced by a non leaking one.. http://www.locomail.com/niko/mycorradow ... /aug05.pdf Niko

:-) I just moved the steering wheel to the other side. Oh well back it goes again..:-) I like the idea of a naturally aspirated engine. Had a tuned and humongously lagged rs2 which was x times as fast on the straights but only after it woke up at 4k rpms. Not really my cup of tea. SC is ofcourse a bit different but with the 11:1 cr Je pistons and 268 schrick cams it won't work very well. The valve on the vsr/vgi vwm intake was kaput so I lost out on top end power. Still wouldn't have caught the audi big boys with 350-450hp.. Street tyres ( measly 205/40/17) with 33-35c temperatures don't mix well either.. Niko

Hi, For those of you who have time, patience and a fast internet connection had a little bout with an rs2 engined s2...and lost http://www.locomail.com/niko/mycorradow ... 090705.wmv Niko
-
could be, but then I might aswell put the rieger one back on. We'll see..
-
what do you mean "done". I'll be repainting it all black soon. Takes..oh about 2 minutes.
-
took some pics of them just now outide. They do look kinda perverse especiially with the fk chrom grill ( didn't have any other ones handy). I'll paint the grill black completely or car colour when I have the time
-
yes, itsa beutlich ( ex treser) uses audi s2/cabrio fogs and indicators. Very well made in comparison to the other aftermarket stuff around, but costs a fortune new.

you'll never believe it, but your not the first one to have asked..:-)

Hi, Just painted the insides of the inpro headlights black and put xenons in them on the right hand side only so as to compare with the stock chrome inpros with halogens. http://www.locomail.com/niko/mycorradow ... rocorrado/ which do you think is better? Niko

added some pics in the vortex post.

there is no import duty from germany..it has soemthing to do with the European economic Community you live in... were 10-12 pairs
-
Ok, the price is as quoted in the thread . But it doesn't look like we're getting the required 20 orders to qualify for that price...:| thanks, niko
-
ok, so they are available in chrome, polished aluminium , eloxified blue and red. All in either the ribbed or no ribbed version. We're just rtrying out if there is interest on these parts first. if there is then maybe other part will be made. Niko

can you access this file? http://www.locomail.com/niko/mycorradow ... 20handles/
-
they'e for the newer interior, as in 93 upwards. There are plans to make them for the older interior also, aswell as other aluminium stuff like handbrake levers and the like. Time will tell it it'll materialize

Hi, Have a look at the post I made in the tex. http://forums.vwvortex.com/zeropost?cmd ... id=1634278 Cheers, niko the funlander

Nope you need a 5mm spacer with the RS's. The RC's I had previously fitted fine. I have a couple of rs sets in germany if you're interested....as in dozens of them that can be made to individual spec. niko
-
How'd ya guess..? :lol: yes an hour a week keeps the doctor away... sad I know.. niko
-
Thanks all for the compliments. I'm well chuffed after finally getting them. Not into gold wheels usually either but these somehow don't look too corny. Yes the're very light, ebven lighter than the BBS rs's which are no heavyweights either. Niko
-
They've travelled the world. Made in Japan ( gold centres), been to Canada then Germany to be polished and then to Funland. Only mere 7x17 et 35 with 205/40/17 but prefer them over the 18". just clears the 330 AP's Cheers, Niko
