skirts are ok... but that grill and front bumper is defo way ott...

Sorry to say it mate but you would defo be better with 16's... been in a couple of Corrados with 17's and I not like at all... I'm a 'real' driver not a poser so prefer to drive the car but imao with 17's its alot harder and less forgiving...

Mmmmmmmmmm This morning I thought I would take the VR6 to work.... she was flying along nicely - felt very strong on the power... but twice when coming out of roundabouts on acceleration she mis-fired quite hard once or twice... something is up... yesterday I started her up and she idled fine for couple of mins then cut out suddenly... a nightmare to get started again but once did - was fine.. Plugging in vagcom tonight and checking plugs..... ignition switch replaced 12 months ago so dont think it can be that. Any pointers?

Will be giving GPC a ring this week as still not done it... GSF is 5 mins from my house :lol:

and is one reason I'm staying with my speedlines............ :)

I put some in mine this morning and now it seems to have a slight mis fire.... :shock:

Put some pics up mate...

Thats a lovely green - better than the classic green on storms I must say .... 8)

Only downer is you get fuel all down your sleeve when taking it out.... and LOTS of fuel pi**es out :mad:

And I thought I was a clean freak! :oops: :oops:

Ok thanks Kev - dont think am getting a full 90 deg - so going to check with vagcom once have adjusted the throttle.... will also tell me what it is at rest

My time will come my friend you watch.... :)

I got my agreed valuation done through Chris Knott and cost me an extra £26..... Valued at £6000

ta mate.... not really looked yet. Do you know what the throttle position is on VAGCOM for fully open? - So I can check I am getting full open?

Cracking engine mate.... no idea about linkage cable but shouldnt be a massive task to replace would have thought

quite a good hot air intake that! :roll: Well the shield is being made as we speak and I have TWO 80mm diameter cold air feeds to it that are fed from the lower front grill........ as well as the original feed behind headlight.... These engines NEED more air....

I took the grill off car whilst I was cleaning so could clean behind it :)

For that sort of money you can have an edition one.... :shock:

GUNK stinks!!!! :( I prefer to use autoglym engine cleaner and then jet wash it away :wink: I then go round with an air line and blast the lot off before using autoglym tyre cleaner to go over all the plastic / rubber pipes / etc... looks like new as you can see:

Mk1 VW Golf 1.5 GL Mk2 VW Golf 1.3 CL MK2 Scirroco GT MK1 Polo 1.1 CL VW Corrado 1.8 16V and last but defo not least VW Corrado VR6 :) Most of my other cars were Vauxhalls.... a bit of a Vauxhall man I was... :oops:

Agreed mate - mine for the first time in 2yrs lost a little bit of water - so I topped it up... went five miles... went home and as I pulled up outside house it dumped its coolant all down the driveway and the lights come on dash.... :lol: At least she got me home :wink:

heh - here is mine

Are they adjustable at all? - mine seems a bit slack

Well in my old 16V Corrado and my VR6 I change at 2500rpm on the dot until I see 80 deg C oil temps.... I would never ever go above 3000rpm with a cold engine (any engine) unless it was an emergency

It looks no worse than any other induction kit..... *TUT*
