Ah...I did wonder.

My fave wheels of all time. :thumbleft: How come they have sort of notches/cut outs around the bolt holes? Never seen any with that before? Have they been redrilled to 4x100?

Managed to find them on ebay, around £50 quid if I remember James.

Fitted stainless fuel tank straps:cheers:

Fitted some polished stainless petrol tank straps with new stainless bolts/washers, also painted the bracket that holds two of them together. Crap pic fitted as I had to rush back to work!

Few pics from today via instagram. Next job is to get the e-level height sensors fitted, can't wait to have presets so I can properly adjust heights while on the move!

Payment sent :-)

Maybe we are all too used to the candle lights in the Corrado? lol.

Nice. Yeah the R32 lump is tempting just because I think I'm getting too old for the 'highly strung' G60 lol. But then the rebel in me says I should sod refinement and stick with the ol grenade. I had a play with a BMW (Not actually sure what it was but it must have hit 150 or more?!) some time ago now, a newer shape one and I was nicely surprised how the old Corrado stuck side by side with it up to (Insert silly speed here) and then I needed more valves really :scratch: as it pulled away steadily but definitely surely! Weighing up what to do next with it now...I think the Interior is crying out to have the leather hides used that I bought years ago!

Burnley you say? I think? I may be literally around the corner from you? Black G60. Is the loom/switch etc included just out of interest? Neil.

Hmmm. It does seem the G60 has a different part number for the brake hoses from goodridge, but I can't think of any reason why they shouldn't fit? Pretty sure the front and rear axle hoses are the same on the 16v and G60? :shrug: I'm so sure that I'll take em, sorry lads! So that's the hoses, the white oil pressure switch and the brake pipe clips in the 8th piccy please mate. Can paypal if you want to throw me a PM? Neil.

Same, they give me headache tbh!

Hi mate, first dibs on the goodridge hoses pending model number/model of corrado/number of hoses? I'm hoping they will fit the front of my G60, and also the rear where they run over the beam? Also the white pressure switch pending part number, and the retaining clips at 50p please. Neil.

Thanks mate, I'm sure you'll get there with yours. It's never ending ain't it? lol. I was going to R32 mine but I think I'm going to stay with the G60, maybe build a tasty lump up or give it another 8 valves...Not sure yet. Just looking back at the pics from when I first bought it...I don't recognise the bloody thing haha! £21K later it's changed so massively really! Gone through so much with this car over the last 8 years or so man.

Well I've driven it home/about a bit, although I've only just received the door handle repair piece for the MOT which I still need. Having issues getting into my unit for my tools though as the leccy steel shutter door has thrown a wobbler and won't let me in! First thoughts from the little driving I've done... The rebound of the suspension feels just like the konigsports did when they were new, the damping feels slightly on the softer side than the konigsports were. Basically when I saw somebody once type "Riding on air is like riding on pillows from God" Well, I'd agree with that! Very nice! So anyway, I'm still awaiting an MOT yet before I can get a proper drive and proper pics etc. In the mean time, my kids have either become very strong...Or I'm three wheelin lol. Crazy, it can lift either rear wheel off the ground!

Noted. Cheers lads. ---------- Sent from iPhone 4S via Tapatalk while on the crapper

Good stuff, I'll look at giving that a go tomorrow (Need sleep badly) Thanks for the help everyone, appreciate it.:thumbleft: Neil.

No change with siteadvisor disabled (Sorry edited above post) But weirdly, IE seems to be fine, hadn't thought to check as it was IE that I first noticed it on a couple of weeks ago. But now it's ok!:scratch: I also just ran the hitman virus checker thing mentioned earlier, no threats detected, just a few tracking cookies which I deleted. I do delete cookies often too anyway. Here's ebay via IE9. Think we are getting somewhere. :thumbleft: Can I reinstall chrome without losing all of my bookmarks etc? I have wuite a lot. [ATTACH=CONFIG]70469[/ATTACH] And here's Volksdevil in IE9 too, notice how much smaller the drop down menu is from chrome. [ATTACH=CONFIG]70470[/ATTACH]

I only have the one extension, siteadvisor which is part of McAfee. Does the drop down on ebay look the same to you with chrome at all? Thanks for helping! Edit: Just disabled siteadvisor, closed chrome, reopened and still the same on ebay/Volksdevil etc. [ATTACH=CONFIG]70468[/ATTACH]

Hmmm, it's a strange one that's for sure. Here's a screen shot of ebay. Notice how there's a lot of space between lines/text within the drop down menu. Any drop down on any website has gone like this after the chrome update. Weird. Previously the lines of text within drop downs was always a lot closer! [ATTACH=CONFIG]70466[/ATTACH] Edit: Even on my own site at Volksdevil, the drop down menu to view active topics etc has gained a lot of space between lines of text:scratch: and yet I've not made any changes to the site for a while now. [ATTACH=CONFIG]70467[/ATTACH]

Ah bugger. No problem, keep up the good work anyway.:thumbleft:

Just throw me a PM for the discount code no problem.:thumbleft: Borbet AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA'S! by the way. LOL.:smug: No real updates, still awaiting a door handle repair piece before I can MOT it, frustrating only needing such a small thing!

Cheers for the suggestions lads, appreciated. EDIT: Ps, I had a lot of browser windows open in both chrome and IE9 when I did the task manager screen shot iirc. The PC is pretty new and tbh there's nothing on it, few pictures and word documents etc along with website backups. Nothing else apart from the McAfee, it's the only add on/program i've ever added to it as I don't like downloading other stuff (Itunes etc too actually!). I try and keep it uber clean/empty! I always defrag and whatnot which it does quickly too. It boots up pretty quick and it all seems to be working normally so fingers crossed it seems fine. Has anybody else had the latest Google chrome update? I'm on 23.0.1271.64 m and it's this that seems to have made drop down menus change/become expanded more :scratch: May help us work out if it's definitely a browser update thing or not before I maybe try some of the suggestions.

Hard to say really, it's 10 years or more since I last drove it. I'd say pottering about it was pretty good (Setup is key obviously) I'd say nowhere near as bad as the current Corrado, although hard to compare with fuel prices these days.
