do it Andy, i think they suit a corrado really well, plus they are really light. i was gonna get a set of these before i found the LM's. i think it was demon tweeks that were doing these in a 16" with falken 512's for £480, but that was about 3 months ago. karl

standard (sytna silver) will be fine Rob, as as you no the rotrex uses its own oil supply, and at £75 a litre :shock: is should be bloody good stuff????
-
i have been using the 476's Rob, but when i have used all that up, i will be getting some of the dodo juice wax, i have heard some really good things about it.

when i do clean my car (not that often) i always do one coat of collinite, that i take off straight away. then i leave the second coat to "cure" overnight. it comes off very easilly and does give a very deep gloss finish.

simply stunning mate 8) Mmmmmmm you have me wondering about a red leather dash, if you dont mind me asking?? how much was you charged for re-covering the dash?? karl

bad news andy :( were these the brakes from CupraUNT if so?? just take the upra from out of he's ed38 user name, and you have what he is :) -
rob, dont bother with e-mailing NS racing, they never reply to e-mails so just do the old fashioned thing and phone them. :) you could even ask storm develpments for the pipework. you also need the lower charger intake pipe mate.

i have been speaking to Jamie at jam-sport http://www.jam-sport.co.uk/gotech.asp very very helpfull bloke, he does really know he's stuff. i will be going to him when i do something to my corrado soon :wink: he is not well known in the vw circles, but having spoken to a few people that have used him, they were very impressed with the quality/fit and the price of he's kits. karl
-
this may be easier for you rob, http://www.c2motorsports.net/intake_systems.asp order the same parts as i have fitted to my vortech, all you would then nead is a 50>76mm reducer from the charger to the pipework suppied from c2??? or give ns racing a ring and see if they have the plastic pipework available, karl

hi Graham, was good to meet ya on sunday. and i must say that you have forced me into getting my car re-sprayed, your paint work was immaculate with some really nice little touch's 8) i hope your contact can do as good a job on my car. karl -
you should have taken me up on the offer of fitting the manifold John, i was in the mood for doing some manual work :) karl

if you look closely in my avatar, you can see that i have done the gear gaitor (sorry OSV) i'm looking for a mk4 leather handbrake cover so i can re-dye it. and i think i will leave it at that. dont want to make it look too much of a brothel????
-
great news Rob, bring it all with you tomorrow so we can have a look. and make sure you have loads of coffee (nescafe) and bread (warburtons) for my toast. i cant work without either of the above 2 things :lol: karl

cheers Stan, looks like some people want to do some dying then?? the whole kit for doing an entire car will cost approx £110, that will give you enough leather prep/dye/final lacquer to do all the seats/doorcards. its not difficult to do, BUT you have to follow the instructions to the letter, and dont rush it. if you use the same kit as i did?? take them up on the offer of hiring out a mini commpressor it costs you £50 to hire it, but the company will give you the money back on completion 8) as for what is vinyl. and what is leather on a (full) factory leather interior. well the seat centres are leather the side bolsters are leather, the head rests are leather, the complete rear bench is leather. and the doorcard centres are leather. the rest is vinyl?? (bloody tight gits) but the dying kit will cover the vinyl very well, but it just feels sticky for about 2 weeks as it cant (cure) very well. but after a few weeks it does cure very well. i will be going to the summer scorcher on saturday if anyone wants to look at it all done. and Jenks you cant have red leathers?? it's my colour :lol: karl
-
very good power Shaun, 8) i would have thought you would have got loads more torque though???? would have been nice to see you and your car when you were at stealth, shame you did not text/ring me. i could have paid you for the gauges/consol also :? karl
-
many thanks to Pthe DDI gauges they were 100% perfect, and very fast delivery via Royal Mail canoes :lol:
-
ok cheers kev (as allways) :) so would the lower spec kit http://www.jam-sport.co.uk/gotechmfi.asp be ok then?? as this is only £720 supplied/fitted and mapped. sorry for the stupid questions, but only want to it once.
-
right one for you guys with more brains than me :lol: how would you say this standalone would cope with a charged vr6, it seems to have all functions i/we all need. plus at £990 supplied/fitted and mapped. it sound very promising????? http://www.jam-sport.co.uk/gotechmfipro.asp karl
-
yeh finger crossed, are you going to the summer scorcher next saturday chris?? if not send me your address and i will post them, how many do ya want?? karl
-
you dont waste anytime do ya chris :) at least i know where to come when i need my headgasket done :) did you get any BBS dust caps?? only asking as i was cleaning out the garage and found my spare set, and i dont need them. karl
-
i have been with brentacre for years, and when i put the charger on i declared it as stage1 260bhpish, but on there modified car policy it covers all mods like wheels/suspension/exhausts, plus engine mods upto 220bhp at the wheels, so 260bhp at the flywheel is under the 220bhp at the wheels :) so it cost me nothing extra in insurance. just havent told them about going to stage2 :) my insurance cost me £345 fully comp, protected no claims, and all the other stuff 8) karl
-
just finishing the rears off at the moment, so hopefully they will be in the car tomorrow. 8)
-
