  1. Does anybody have a tow eye cap for the lower front bumper, mine is missing. Not sure if they are handed, anyone with a spare would be great! Thanks
  2. VR6 MONKEY, I've just realised your the guy who made me the one off VR6 vinyl adhesive for the front grill badge. :bonk: Again, amazing work!:thumbleft: Either that or you know renewart!
  3. Hi Vr6monkey, There very nice, I used to have a G60 and I used to use tempered screen protectors on my lights. Did the job perfect. Classy work there
  4. The front indicator units really do need attention, It looks like all old new stock has dried up and no one seems to have these anymore, anywhere. I need a OF/S indicator unit with minimal to no damage if possible anyone? I am surprised no one/company has remanufactured them, surely every Corrado owner would buy a second set as a backup. Even more so for pre-1992 owners with the recessed units. Do we not all feel this frustration. Replies are most appreciated Thanks
  5. Hey guys i am currently lowering my VR6 with a set of KW V1 coilovers. I haven't used the car since fitting a few days ago but I have noticed that the cat as well as the shield sits very low to the ground below the car. I am concerned about it catching something. Do they normally sit very low? Do you recommend removing it? Also the 90mm front splitter is also worrying me? Any input on this would put a mind to rest.. Thanks
  6. Absolutley spot on dude. I think I'll go for the 7.5J. Did you have any issues clearing the brakes etc? Many Thanks
  7. Hi all, so now im thinking of going for either 17" 7.5J ET35 all round or 17" 8.5J ET20 all round with 205/40/17 tyres. The car is at standard height currently but I will be looking to fit coilovers, I wont be lowering too much. What issues might I get with either setup and which would you recommend ? Thanks
  8. These are only going to on over the summer months. Had the same wheels on my old Honda Prelude Vtec and they lasted well. Information on the tyre sizes etc would be great
  9. Hi all, looking to purchase some 16" BBS style 8j wheels with an offset of ET25 all round. Going on my VR6 Whats the best tyre size to ut on these and how low should I go. Don't want any rubbing Thanks
  10. Any one know anywhere that does Gear knob refurbishment. The standard gearknob really suits the car however like most of you I imagine it's worse for wear. Thanks
  11. Found them dude Amazing! Thank you
  12. Could you link me up? Just had a quick look can't seem to locate them. Thanks
  13. Problem Solved and spoiler is now functioning correctly. Turns out that under the dash someone has spliced into the main loom and added a separate fuse holder for the spoiler control. It had blown, someone placed a 10amp in there. Added a 15 amp and all is good. Oh and my abs light also comes on and goes out now :cheers:
  14. Looking for a set of speed line VR6 wheel center caps Message me if anyone has any Thanks Guys
  15. My number,07791749849 messaged me dude.
  16. Hi Buddy, what you looking for price wise. I would like these. Thanks Will
  17. [ATTACH=CONFIG]85742[/ATTACH] Also there is a wire hanging from the side of the fuse box, and another nearby which it looks it should connect to? Anybody know what this may be? Don't want to connect it in case anything goes wrong....
  18. If the control Unit was faulty would this cause the switch and speed activation to cease operation completely. Is the control module above the manual switch?
  19. Hi Mate, Ah interesting, Where abouts is the control module located? I'll go take a look now.
  20. Hi guys, I have just purchased a lovely 1993 VR6. Being a g60 owner I thought I knew a great deal about the Corrado however the VR6 especially engine wise a whole new thing for me. I never had trouble with the G60 spoiler. Problem: The spoiler doesn't work at all. The under dash switch does nothing. The spoiler doesn't work at speed. I have checked the fuse and all is okay with that. I have removed the rear panel to the mechanism and motor and the spoiler rises and lowers with the handle perfectly. The blue wire behind the radio is on its own and insulated. What do you suggest guy's Thanks!
  21. Excellent advise from you guys, much appreciated. I managed to source a second had subframe, £100 :dance: and after a good degrease it seems to be in excellent condition. Now to get it blasted and powder coated, and swap over. Also doing new wishbones, ball joints, rack/tie ends, link rods, anti roll bushes, cross member bushes, everything I can basically, manged to get a complete set of new subframe bolts from a local supplier too! I'll get pictures up soon!
  22. Okay so please bare with me on this, i will explain as concisely as i can :) Okay so i've owned my Corrado for the last 6 months, and never have i had to do so much studying and investigation for one car. But i do love it and so i will continue. Spec and work carried out so far: Rebuilt Stage 2 Charger with new oil & return lines 65mm Pulley Sns Stage 5 chip 3.5bar FPR RSR Outlet Replaced all guide pulleys Cambelt & Tensioner & auxillary belts All sensor switches/blue/black/oil/rad etc Standard Green Injectors Basically i've just had my MOT and apart from it failing on the structual integrity of the subframe (i'm replacing the entire front suspension now :( it has failed miserably on the emissions. Around 6% CO on ide, and over 7% on load..............I KNOW Right!! Hydrocarbons Were good! Car currently has, custom exhaust, no cat, cat bypass pipe with lambda sesnor. Now my thinking is the car is overfueling, too much unburnt fuel in the exhaust, i do get pretty bad fuel consumption, around 23-25mpg, i also get a lovely flame on gear change under Wide open throttle. Regardless of this the car does pull really well,and moves like rocket. What can i do to bring the fueling under control? I know theres a co potentiometer on the boost pipe, can this be tweaked? Would it help? Should i check lambda sesnor? Idle Switch? Dont know anthing about this? What is service mode? Can the timing affect the fueling? Sorry for this, i've never had to get so indepth with a car before, but i do enjoy learning Really would appreciate any help at all. I don't want her blowing up! Thanks!
  23. Okay guy's just had my MOT and my precious G60 :) has failed on the front subframe! "Nearside front sub-frame corroded and seriously weakened" "Offside front sub-frame corroded and seriously weakened" So basically I need to replace the subframe, the problem is where to go about sourcing one? Any advice, are they avaliable new anymore, or where can i get a good second hand one. Any help would be much appreciated??? Thanks Guys!!
  24. I have a leak on my G60 Corrado, i can't quite figure out where it's coming from. I suspect it may be a coolant leak, as it doesn't smell like oil, and i have lost about half a litre in 3 weeks. On the right side of the engine block there is a 2 bolt plastic flange with a hose connected. I thought this may be the thermostat housing, and maybe it was weeping from there. I ordered a new one but it doesn't match. Can anyone confirm what this part is?? Here's a picture, it looks as if it's leaking around this area? And another
