i saw this on the tv,what an absolute joke :roll: the best car valetor in the world actually used a sponge :lol: to wash a car worth 100k or sommet,cant remember... and as for using his hands,pmsl :lol: with high spots on ya fingers and rough skin :lol: you could actually see high spots in the silly priced carnuba once he 'massaged' :lol: it into the paint. oh,as for the citrus crap,its just feckin tfr (traffic film remover) nothing special about it at all :? and then! he went and applied (non acidic-oooooh) alloy wheel cleanser to the wheels after he had powerwashed the body off :? yeah,lets flick it all over the body work with a paint brush... joke.

cool,thanks greeny! appreciate it. :D good work 8) neil.

wow,people actually like it! :D stan,yep ive got an uprated loom! 8) could somebody chop one of the pics in 2 ways for me please? :D 1/with added yellow fogs and black indicaters. 2/with added yellow fogs and yellow indicaters. or what do people think? im still unsure on the headlights alone if im honest neil.

we have one over on volksdevil. :) in conjunction with the 'help a volksdevil member' section we have,just so you can see where people are at if ya need a hand 8)

Shilakadaddy, are those the autogauge ones? boost/oil pressure and voltage at a guess? its between those and the autometer ones at the minute. i do prefer the lower scale on the autometer ones but prefer the black switched off look/colour of the autogauge! JMC, ahhh,yeah can see how they will look good in yours m8!

it is a 'bit' crashy jenks m8,and when thrown round tight/hard bends it creates a bit of understeer...but it can be lived with and got used to. neil.

cool,cheers for the pics everyone :D jmc,is the needle orange? or red? i do like that gauge apart from the silver surround...could maybe paint em? just want something to go with the dials 8) edit:still need to change the lcd screens!

tis diffarent aye! wether thats a good thing or not i dont know? :lol: theyre actually a bit darker than they look in the pics,hard to get the lighting just right on the camera!

ideally 7j wide 8's are a stretch. this is a 195/45 on an 8x16.

nice pics,nice rado 8) neil.

is this a first? and maybe last? :lol:

how to tint corrado headlights 8) neil.

involves removing the stereo! :shock: :lol:

no probs m8! thats what the forums here for :D as far as i know the in tank pump just twists in and out... as for the pin hole in the cooler tube,needs a new hose really,that wont be helping performance either! neil. :)

having looked at your other thread concerning your ignition timing,id be inclined to think thatll sort it m8 8) replace the idle screw. sort ignition timing by eye/and then with a timing light,and it should be good i reckon. neil. :)

i get it from my local top gear motor store mike :D neil.

the 3 little sensors on the side of the head all have the same part number,so the wiring can go which ever way you please. :) id let someone confirm first though as its a while since i messed with a valver :( ! neil.

ahh cool 8) you have the black bits too like me.and i see you used the granville stuff,good sh1t that 8) and another thing,thats a damn good looking rado there,what are the rims?

a little mirror? although the tickover sounds like theres probably nothing stuck in there... try stick your finger over the hole while the cars running :) neil.

theres no relay that im aware of,they are heated though if that helps any m8? :) neil.

if you remove the fuse box cover-2 clips that pull out. then remove the bit next to it-self tappers along left side/top and one on right hand side,that should give you good access. now dont quote me on this as ive never actually removed one from a corrado,but im guessing that the switch will just turn like 1/4 of a turn and pull out. someone should be able to confirm. :) neil.

if its a new one with new rubber seal on there...you will have to push it in the hole until the threads meet each other :) unless some ones bunged sommet in there that they shouldnt have??! :shock: without the screw in there,it should tickover pretty high,whats it like? neil.

greeny,thanks for the chop m8 :D ! carpy,you could always paint the bulbs for the other lights maybe? feck it,think ill have a crack tommorow! :)

those pics bring back feckin bad memories man... :roll: :lol: a wrench/spanner should just fit with no probs m8,i think unplugging the connector from the cooling fan may give a little more room. neil.

i think the correct thing to do is to: unplug the bts (blue temp sensor,in top coolant hose) and then stick the idle screw in,turn it in untill the tickover is around the 750-800 rpm mark and then plug the bts back in. blip the throttle a few times and check the tickover is good.around 850-900 rpm should be good. neil. :)
